The Queen's Meme #46 - The Song Lyrics Meme
Mimi of The Queen's Meme has sent this in....
Your job is to find a song that uses this word either in the title or lyrics. Give us the title or part of the lyric that fits and the artist. Then say a little something about the tune and why you chose it. Posting a YouTube video of the song would be great! (but not required)
Here we go.
1: Want...You're The One That I Want by John Travolta & Olivia Newton John....really catchy...a great film clip.
2: Hell....Bat Out Of Hell by Meatloaf....the first one that came to mind, and I guess it will for many others as well.
3: Smack...Smackwater Jack by Carole King comes from my favourite album Tapestry. Excellent.
4: Ugly...The Good, The Bad & The Ugly by Hugo Montenegro....this instrumental is a classic theme.
5: Beast...Beast Of Burden by Bette Midler...I must admit I didn't know any 'beast' songs here!
6: Romeo...Romeo & Juliet/How Insensitive by William Shatner...When I saw who the singer was, I had to put this one in!
7: God...God Only Knows by The Beach Boys....a fabulous BB song.

I love Smackwater Jack! A great choice!
Indeed, great minds do think alike. Very pleased to meet you, Captain.
The Bette Midler version of Beast is so fantastic! I had to laugh at the Shatner tune.
Thanks for visiting my QM!
good Ugly song...didn't think of that one....rock on...
Interesting choices. I thought of Bat Out of Hell, but had to go with Paul Williams and that great closing number.
Bat of out Hell! Good one... I never thought about that.
I can't believe I forgot Meatloaf. :-\ "God only Knows" is one of my favourites too... although it took a disconcerting turn in my head after it was used on TV as a theme song for polygamy. lol
I had no idea William Shatner had sung a song. That's a thought as mind bogling as Klingon opera. ;-)
Great answers this week.
I used Shatner too and thought of you right off! You've gotta listen. Did you?
A great meme this week. It was interesting whar some of the choices people picked.
Some great choices. I went for Meat Loaf too. Terrific choices for Ugly and God. Surprised that the William Shatner song didn't even occur to me.
