10 First Lines

[glenatron]

People like albevan, silks_ic and tadeous have been putting their music players on random and putting the first lines of 10 songs it chooses for people to guess. Nothing if not a sheep, I thought I'd join in...

1) "One night, a long time ago, Two lovers danced to an old radio..." Radio Sweethearts - Kate Rusby
2) "We fall through water unsung unseen and days thought endless lose more light and heat." Overthrown - Tom McRae
3) "Regret I'll not be a prisoner in your cell..." Big Regret - Eden Burning
4) "Apparently before jed had left us, he wrote some poems..." Jed's Other Poem - Grandaddy
5) "I was sitting with the band, a drink in each hand, there wasn't much to say..." Find The Answer Within - Boo Radleys
6) "I still don't know what I was waiting for and my time was running wild" - Changes by Bowie, spotted by albevan.
7) "I should have quit you long time ago yeah long time ago..." The Lemon Song by Led Zep identified by flangebeast.
8) "In the lush Virginia hills they kept her as long as they could..." Virginia by Tori Amos, also flangebeast.
9) "The gentleman caller in the blue suede shoes he don't know what to do..." - Good Time by Counting Crows, albevan again.
10) "Hear me now and don't forget I'm not the man my actions would suggest..." Debonair by Afghan Whigs, half guessed by shiva_matimbres

I confess to having jumped a couple that were so wilfully obscure none of you would have got them. Looking at that list I would maybe be able to guess 5 of them. Turns out I own a lot more music than I listen to regularly...

It most certainly is. But what was the song?

i think maybe it was on the album I don't have except in old copied cassette form, since its not on black love and i'm pretty sure its not from that album when he turned from being depressed to horny and depressed

He wasn't that depressed, he was mostly just brutal on this album...
