You know the deal: I post a bunch of lyric fragments and you have to name the songs they are from (title and artist). Some are easy, others are semi-obscure. The first person to identify each song wins that question.
"we live always underground" - New Order, "Leave Me Alone" (fact244)
"I told you everything I could just to get you in the mood" - The Hummingbirds, "Blush" (surfacenoise)
"a hand over my mouth, a hand over the window" - Belle & Sebastian - "Seeing Other People" (hazyjayne)
"arrested by the boulevard, a broken neck a stolen car"
"nothing is so complete but we couldn't care
"spray-on snow, coloured flashing lights, and an artificial christmas tree"Black Box Recorder - "Child Psychology" (addedentry)
