    'Needles on your nerve ends crawl like spiders on your skin'

    Rush
    The Enemy Within

    Just about every time I mentally quote this line to myself I do actually feel tingling on my skin.

  3. It's still Tuesday here, so let me add at least one entry for today's #TuneTuesday theme:

    #MemorableLine - Songs with a single line that stands out to you more than any other

    O a historias, se quedan allí"

    Oh the last I heard she's sleeping rough
    Back on the Derby beat
    White Horse in her hip pocket
    And a wolfhound at her feet
    And they say she even married once
    A man named Romany Brown
    But even a gypsy caravan
    Was too much settling down
    And they say her flower is faded now
    Hard weather and hard booze
    But maybe that's just the price you pay
    For the chains you refuse

    Richard Thompson - Beeswing:

  6. Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding

    They Might Be Giants, "Your Racist Friend" (1990)

  7. @pgreer this is one of my #memorableline from Leonard Cohen: There is a crack, a crack in everything
    That’s how the light gets in.

    Terrific song writer 🎶

    St. John of the Cross did his best stuff
    Imprisoned in a box
    And Johnny Thunders was half alive
    When he wrote Chinese Rocks
    Karl Marx squeezed his carbuncles
    While writing Das Kapital
    And Gauguin, he buggered off, man
    And went all tropical
    While Philip Larkin stuck it out
    In a library in Hull
    And Dylan Thomas died drunk in
    St. Vincent's hospital

    Nick Cave - There She Goes, My Beautiful World:

    The blizzard of the world
    Has crossed the threshold
    And it's overturned
    The order of the soul

    Depending on whichever book you read
    Sometimes it takes a lifetime to get what you need

    Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
    Did you make mankind after we made you
    And the devil too?

    Another one of those songs that resonates on a personal level all the way through, but a couple of lines that just stay with me.

    Mike Gunther - Vermillion
    youtube.com/watch?v=M24ALDbVocM

    "There is no use in dying, time's a consequence of motion"

    "I told her that I hadn't, but something changed in me.
    There's a switchblade in my pocket where my rosary should be"

    Electric Wizard - Legalize Drugs & Murder 🇬🇧

    This song only has 2 lines.

    "Legalize drugs and murder" (about 42x)
    followed by about 42x
    "Children of the grave"

    Probably I don't really want this in real life, I am not done yet thinking this through, but you must admit, the lyrics are somehow outstanding. :blobcatgiggle: And the music as well (in my ears)

    Bruce Cockburn - If I had a rocket launcher 🇨🇦
