Line(s) of the Day #Driverslicense

And I know we weren’t perfect but I’ve never felt this way for no one
And I just can’t imagine how you could be so okay now that I’m gone
Guess you didn’t mean what you wrote in that song about me
‘Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

Taken from Olivia Rodrigo’s debut song Driver’s License (2020), which has smashed all number of records, including being one of the most dominant number one’s in US Billboard’s Top 100 history.

Line(s) of the Day #BitterSweetSymphony

Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony this life

The opening lines of Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve, taken from their masterful third studio album Urban Hymns (1997). Starting with a gorgeous orchestra sound, it was a huge smash and one of the defining Britpop songs of the 1990s.

Line(s) of the Day #DarkHorse

So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know whatcha falling for

Taken from the song Dark Horse by Katy Perry featuring Juicy J, from her fourth studio album Prism (2013). Perry has had an array of smashes since her breakthrough in 2008, including Roar and Firework.

Line(s) of the Day #OneOfUs

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy

Taken from the song One of Us by Swedish pop group ABBA. It was the first single from their final studio album The Arrival (1981). I’ve posted Fernando and The Winner Takes it All. Feel free to share your favourite ABBA song.

Line(s) of the Day #SadHappy

I was waiting so sad happy
Thought I lost you in a nightmare dream
You were too high to hold on
I was losing all track of time

Line(s) of the Day #Aintnosunshine

Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
It’s not warm when she’s away
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And she’s always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Taken from the song Ain’t No Sunshine by soul legend Bill Withers from his debut album Just as I am (1971). What a voice.

Line(s) of the Day #Linger

Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you

Taken from the song Linger by Irish band The Cranberries from their debut album Everybody Else is Doing It so Why Can’t We? (1993), and the first album I remember buying. It topped the charts both in the UK and Ireland and reached the top 20 in the US. Even now the voice of the (sadly late) Dolores O’Riordan still blows me away.
