Sorry, but it said in the rules "Post a song/artist which contains a word from the previous post", so it seemed to include the artist, but I'll try to do just songs if that's how it's played. :-) Thanks.
And thanks for sticking up for me, shesinplainview, I appreciate it. :-) But EMS_24 was just trying to help. I'm fairly new here, so I don't really know how a lot of the games are played.

Look What I Found In My Beer - The Beautiful South
Look what I found in my beer
A free test drive for a heart I cannot steer
Look what I found in my beer
Look what we found in the dance

It makes the drink seem weak,
the friendship strong

Holland, 1945 - Neutral Milk Hotel
..Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
And now we ride the circus wheel..

A picture of you in your birthday suit,
You sat in the sun on a hot afternoon.
Picture book, your mama and your papa, and fat old Uncle Charlie out boozing with their friends.

Picture book, when you were just a baby, those days when you were happy, a long time ago.
Na, na, na, na, na na.

Song for Dan Treacy - MGMT
He spends his time, Or maybe half of his time
Or part of the time wandering
'round the creeks and cobble stones of hackney lanes
With a tear in his eye
As the children walk by, he's thinking of a song
Then stops to paint a picture of a frown
Walking around
Dan Treacy's smile
He spends his time, Or maybe half of his time
Or part of the time wandering
'round the creeks and cobble stones of hackney lanes
With a tear in his eye
As the children walk by, he's thinking of a song
Then stops to paint a picture of a frown
Walking around
Dan Treacy's smile
