Lyrical letters quiz

[Mindgames]

Q+A threads you can answer with Google, or that ask you to name your favorite cheese as if it's something to be proud of, do not float my boat. I prefer inflicting something on you that

a) makes you think, even if that's an alien concept
b) frustrates you when you find the answer was easy

So, all you have to do is name the song, from the first letter of each word in the lyrics. Name it and you get to post your own*..


(*verses by unsigned Lithuanian emo-punk collectives are not ideal. It helps if someone other than you knows the words)

[episode allah]

so this is a short song (in the popular sense, i.e not a nursery rhyme or poem etc.) comprised of only 7 lines and 40 words that is reasonably well know??

[Mindgames]

that's the first verse and chorus. Famous for being performed acoustically on MTV, and covered acoustically by a band whom Amelia wrote an article about, but it's not an acoustic track.

I have no idea since I don't watch mtv. I have'nt in a looooong time. i'm out of this one I guess....

[Mindgames]

Well, someone got it right (but to help the rest of you to catch up with her, I'll mention that the first word of the first line is "She")

This one may be easier for the young whipper-snappers out there. Written by a British supergroup, the video of the cover version featured an Oscar winner. First verse below, chorus in bold.

The British supergroup are more likely to be found in a crime scene these days...
