On That Note: Talk Talk

[JP4CY]

A rock rap crossover classic with tons of examples in the song:

 

[stormchaser2014]

"In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon"

 

[cyclones500]

“Speakers are speaking in code” //
“Speakers speaking speaker's speaking speaking in code”

 

[MeanDean]

Simon and Garfunkel. Several years before they decided to use their real names (1959).

 

[pourcyne]

Hey, nineteen
No, we can't dance together (We can't dance together)
No, we can't talk at all
Please take me along when you slide on down

 

[pourcyne]

 

[pourcyne]

Hey, hey, hey
Bad company
I can't deny...
Bad company
Till the day I die...
And I say it's
Bad company
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

[cyclones500]

“When I talk(ed) about it” // “Big me to talk about it”

Jane Says:

 

[Cydar]

The Icicle Works - Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)

Into My Arms - Nick Cave (just a gorgeous song):

"And I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did I would summon them together
And ask them to watch over you"

 

[pourcyne]

You start a conversation, you can't even finish it
You're talking a lot, but you're not saying anything
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
Say something once, why say it again?

 

[Pope]

Jive Talkin, Bee Gees

I'm only posting 80s/early 90s alternative tonight.

So many lyrics from "Add It Up" by Violent Femmes:

"Just as she's about ready to cut it up:
She says, "Wait a minute, honey, I'm gonna add it up!"
Add it up! Add it up! Add it up!
Day after day, I get angry and I will say
That the day is in my sight when I'll take a bow and say goodnight"

Teen Age Riot - Sonic Youth:

"Say it, don't spray it."

 

[pourcyne]

Whoever I'm with
I'm always, always talking to you
I'm always talking to you
And I'm sad that you can't hear
Sad that you can't hear
