Scooter McGavin's 9th Green

A month and a half ago I named Use Somebody by Kings of Leon the best song of 2009. So I thought I would throw the song into iTunes’ Genius feature and here are the twenty-five songs that it gave back to me. 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. Please keep in mind the lyrics quiz is for entertainment purposes only so please only use your own meandering mind to guess them. Now onto the lyric quiz:

1. Save some face, you know you only got one. Change your ways while you’re young.
2. Why would you lie about how much gold you have, why would you lie about something dumb like that? Why would you lie about anything at all? Lil' John: he always tells the truth.3. This is what you get when you mess with us. For a minute there I lost myself. I lost myself. (Karma Police - Radiohead; guessed by Doug)
4. All these places we’ve grown. All of us are done for. And we live in a beautiful world. (Don't Panic - Coldplay; guessed by Doug)
5. Stand up beside the fireplace. Take that look from off your face. ‘Cause you ain’t never gonna burn my heart out. (Don't Look Back in Anger - Oasis; guessed by Doug)
6. Dani the girl is singing songs to me beneath the marquee... of her soul. (By the Way - Red Hot Chili Peppers; guessed by Doug)
7. I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque. I love it to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades. I like it in the city when two worlds collide.
8. It seems to me that maybe, it pretty much always means no. So don’t tell me you might just let it go.9. You used to get it in your fishnets now you only get it in your night dress. Discarded all the naughtiness for the niceness. Landed in a very common crisis. (Fluorescent Adolescent - Arctic Monkeys; guessed by Anonymous)
10. With a name I’ve never chosen I can make my first steps as a child of twenty-five. 11. So don’t knock it; don’t knock it if you’ve been there before. (Notion - Kings of Leon; guessed by Kings of Leon; guessed by Anonymous)
12. There are certain people you just coming back to; she is right there in front of you. You begin to wonder: can you find a better one?
13. Baby, it’s been a long day, baby. Things ain’t going my way. You know In need you here, here by my side all the time.
14. I knew I had made a horrible call and now the state line felt like the Berlin Wall and there was no doubt about which side I was on.
15. Won’t you kiss me on that midnight street? Sweep me off my feet, singing ain’t this life so sweet.16. It’s not a silly little moment. It’s not the storm before the calm. This is the deep and dyeing breathe; this love we’ve been working on. (Slow Dancing in a Burning Room - John Mayer; guessed by Anonymous)
17. Think it’s not what you say, what you say is way too complicated. For a minute thought I couldn't tell how to fall out. It's twenty seconds until the last call.
18. The evening comes and we’re hanging out on the front step and a car goes down with the windows rolled down. And the War song is playing: Why Can’t We Be Friends.
19. When it comes around and it’s taken away, leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most. Feel it come to life when I see your ghost. Then I’m done, done, on to the next one.20. As she walks out the door your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes. And when your friends say, “What is it?’ You look like you've seen a ghost. (Sometime Around Midnight - The Airborne Toxic Event; guessed by Anonymous)
21. Time is never time at all. You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth.22. Off, off with your head, dance, dance ‘til you’re dead. (Heads Will Roll - Yeah Yeah Yeahs; guessed by Anonymous)
23. Anger, he smiles towering, shiny metallic purple armor. (Bold as Love - Jimi Hendrix Experience; guessed by Anonymous)
24. Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white. (Round Here - Counting Crows; guessed by Doug)
25. And if there's anybody left in here that doesn’t want to be out there. Watching the people get lairy. It's not very pretty I tell thee.

57 Channels and Only This Is On vol. CXVII

Chuck: A lot of pretty big plot holes in this episode. Like who lets the bad guy get out of the museum to get back to The Ring intersanctum (which looked a lot like that of Fulcram) to mention that Shaw was still alive. And after all the fuss Hannah made about Chuck leaving her at the museum to hang out with his ex-girlfriend, how did she not see Sarah about a hundred feet away the second time around? And I was half expecting when Sarah told Chuck she had a type: hero, that Chuck didn’t respond, “if you didn’t notice I have a type too: brunettes.” Come to think of it, I really need to get Zach Levi to hook me up with the devil because I would mind trading in my soul to hook up with Rachel Bilson, Jordana Bewster, Kristin Kruek, and Yvonne Strahovski in succession. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu. You can also download Castle on iTunes.

How I Met Your Mother: Throughout the four and a half seasons of the show, Barney has come up with some ingenious plans to hook up with chick, but all of them pale in comparison of giving out his phone number at the Super Bowl. Too bad it turned out to be more than he could handle. You can stream recent episodes over at cbs.com. You can also download How I Met Your Mother on iTunes.

The Big Bang Theory: Hopefully this episode extends into the next one because I wouldn’t mind a full thirty minutes of Sheldon and Penny being sick together, singing soft kitty to each other. You can download The Big Bang Theory on iTunes.

Greek: What was with all the protective gear by the umpires and catchers? It was only slow pitch. As a former umpire, I was embarrassed. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu.

Castle: Of course the Devil did it. It was just a matter of how or why once I saw him. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu. You can also download Castle on iTunes. Also be sure to check out my chat with Stana Katic.

Lost: So Sayid is infected like Jack’s sister and presumably Rousseau’s team. But even though the time for questions is over, I have wonder how does one get infected? Rousseau’s team had contact with Smokey and Claire did with her father (who I think may have been Smokey in disguise) but how does that explain Sayid unless Smokey is the one that tainted the spring. I was completely wrong with Claire not being pregnant and naturally it was delivered by Ethan ~~Rom~~ Goodspeed. Alrighty. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu.

Modern Family: Did no one think to cut the belt strap on the coat? And too bad we didn’t get a full Valentine’s date from Dylan and Haley. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu.

Leverage: It is always good to see Sterling because if there is one thing the show needs is a constant antagonist and he is really good at it. And with all the twist and turns of this episode, there are many more in the season finale next week and one doozy of a cliffhanger. You can stream current episodes on Hulu. You can also download Leverage on iTunes.

Community: The show really needs to watch it when it goes too far overboard with the pop culture references. It may benefit the show if Abed transfers next year so they do not have to lean on the crutch. You can stream current episodes on Hulu. You can also download Community on iTunes.
