Lyrics Quiz: Mystery Theme

I have been working on my next countdown, but I am not quite ready to announce what that is just yet, but I thought I would tease some of the songs that will be on the list for this month’s lyrics quiz. As always leave your guesses, both artist and song title, in the comment section or e-mail me. If you are correct I will un-bold the lyric and give you credit. Please keep in mind the lyrics quiz is for entertainment purposes only so please only use your own meandering mind to guess them.


1. He spoke to me in the voice so sweet. I thought I heard the shuffle of angel’s feet. He called my name and my heart stood still.

3. Today is gonna be the day that they’re gonna throw it back to you. (Wonderwall - Oasis; guessed by Doug)

  2. Rose, I forgot that #3 had those lyrics in them, but I am looking for the orginal song that uses those lyrics, Jay-Z even name drops the group before saying their lyrics.
