Non-U2 songs w/U2 pics

[Edgespet]

This idea for a thread came to me as I was listening to the radio in my car & "Sultans of Swing" came on(one of the best non-U2 songs ever done!). What about matching non-u2 songs &/or lyrics with u2 pictures?

(And yes, I'll be the first to admit that I have way too much time on my hands when I'm not at work! )

My inspiration...

"Sultans of Swing"


Predictable, but I think of "YMCA" every time I see this pic!

Okay, the whole song "Macho Man" just fits this gorgeous creature to a T!

OK, mine's long and I just spent an hour doing this instead of homework:


Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never

Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun

 

[Liesje]

Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the mad men

Forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever? Forever young

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat

Sooner or later they all will be gone
why don't they stay young

It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse

Youth's like diamonds in the sun
and diamonds are forever

 

[Liesje]

So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

Forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever

When I saw that pic (never seen it before - and it makes me really and ), I got to think of another pic from that funeral, and one of my fav. Phil Collins songs:

Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand
Hold it tight

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here
in my heart always
Always

I had never seen this one before either, I know how he feels, I wish I didn't. That's a very sad and difficult moment in anyone's life. Here's my contribution:

Bruce Springsteen - You're Missing

Shirts in the closet, shoes in the hall
Mama's in the kitchen, baby and all
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
But you're missing

Coffee cups on the counter, jackets on the chair
Papers on the doorstep, but you're not there
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
But you're missing

Pictures on the nightstand, TV's on in the den
Your house is waiting, your house is waiting
For you to walk in, for you to walk in
But you're missing, you're missing You're missing when I shut out the lights
You're missing, when I close my eyes
You're missing, when I see the sun rise
You're missing

Children are asking if it's alright
Will you be in our arms tonight?

Morning is morning, the evening falls I got
Too much room in my bed, too many phone calls
How's everything, everything?
Everything, everything
You're missing, you're missing

God's drifting in heaven, devil's in the mailbox
I got dust on my shoes, nothing but teardrops

 

[Liesje]

Yeah, I don't usually post those pics or like it when other people do, but I think they make sense in the context of the song.
