[Non Compos Mentis]

The object of this game is to finish the rest of the lyric(s) and name the song, and band.


I'll Start:

You take a mortal man and


Hint: This is a metal band. This should be easy for some.

 

[Zombie-F]

Put him in control.

Symphony of Destruction... MEGADETH

 

[Non Compos Mentis]

I knew you would get it. Your turn Mr. Zombie!

 

[Zombie-F]

She's got a date at midnight...

Guess the rest of the lyric, the band and the song.

A clue is they're one of my favorites.

 

[Sinister]

...With Nosferatu, Oh baby, Lily Munster, ain't got nothin' on you!

Type O Negative, Black No. 1

 

[Zombie-F]

Too easy... you go now.

 

[Sinister]

"I lived alone, my mind was blank..."

 

[dougspaulding]

I believe it was "I left alone my mind was blank", was it not?

"I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind"

Iron Maiden, "Number of the Beast"

 

[Sinister]

Sorry about that, my mind does funny things this time of night, but you're absolutely right.

Damn, you actually know that song! I...I...don't believe it!

 

[SuFiKitten77]

"Opium dreams through the seven dials
And feel the pillow over your head."

 

[Zombie-F]

Actually SiFiKitten, it's now dougspaulding's turn.

 

[dougspaulding]

That's OK, Zombie. Here you go, Kitty:

Rachel hide from Ned the crow
Keen eye on the peelers
Experiment 53
And no scratch for the dealers

That's a R. Zombie tune called "The Ballad Of Resurrection Joe And Rosa Whore"

Here's a great tune. Recorded by more than one, I'll take either answer.

In Heaven His throne is made of gold
The ark of his Testament is stowed
A throne from which I'm told
All history does unfold.

 

[SuFiKitten77]

Hehe .. opps

 

[Sinister]

Rachel hide from Ned the crow
Keen eye on the peelers
Experiment 53
And no scratch for the dealers

That's a R. Zombie tune called "The Ballad Of Resurrection Joe And Rosa Whore"

It's a rarity, but folks, I'm actually speechless. If you guys knew Doug like I do, you would know why.

dougspalding: Wasn't that originally done by Johnny Cash, called The Mercy Seat??

 

[dougspaulding]

Welcome Princess! And quite a start you've made - you successfully guessed the riddle and have earned the next turn.

The song "The Mercy Seat" was originally written and recorded by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, but was covered by Cash on his brilliant 2002 album "Solitary Man".

[dougspaulding]

Princess, hello? You're up.

 

[SuFiKitten77]

I think she has gone into hiding Do you go again Doug is she doesn't come back and take her turn? Still learning how the rules to the game go

 

[dougspaulding]

You go, Kitten (we make up the rules as we go along).

 

[SuFiKitten77]

"When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Still I carry this feeling."
