Have you ever had the experience where you are just humming along with the words of a song, but no matter how hard you try, you just can't find out who sang the song or what the song's name is? Well, I have had plenty. Since people at SYM are quite knowledgable about music, so I thought this thread will be a good place to ask someone for information. I'll start with two questions.
1) Does anyone know the name of the song that begins with "the world is a vampire" and has a chorus of "despite all my rage I am still ready to cage."?
2) Does anyone know the name of the song that has a chorus of " I am a loser baby, so why don't you kill me"?
Thanks in advance

I'm trying to find the song that's got the line "I think of you, 8-years-old, big blue eyes, and a heart of gold."

It's a country song from within the last decade.
"I think of you and I can't help but think that every woman used to be someone's little girl."
Speed...er...moderate I guess. I judge "fast vs. slow" differently than the actual speed of the beat, so I'm not exactly sure.

I've used some sites like those when looking for lyrics to songs, but then I knew what the song was. Do any of those have the option to type in some lyrics in order to find the song?

Hello sweet one !
The song you're searching for is
"I Think About You"
by COLLIN RAYE (LYRICS by Don Schlitz/Steve Seskin)
Everytime I see a woman on a billboard sign
I think about you
Saying "drink this beer and you'll be mine"
I think about you
When an actress on a movie screen
Plays Lolita in some old man's dreams
It doesn't matter who she is
I think about you
When I see a pretty woman walking down the street
I think about you
Men look her up and down like she's some kind of treat
I think about you
She wouldn't dare talk to a stranger
always has to be aware of the danger
it doesn't matter who she is
I think about
Chorus:
You eight years old
big blue eyes and a heart of gold
when I look at this world, I think about
You and I can't help but see
that every woman used to be
Somebody's little girl, I think about you
Everytime I hear people say it's never gonna change
I think about you
Like it's some kind fo joke, some kind of game
I think about you
When I see a woman on the news
who didn't ask to be abandoned or abused
it doesn't matter who she is
I think about
Chorus
When I look at this world I think about you .....

I had never heard of them until I did a google search on the line you asked about. I listened to a couple of their clips and they have an interesting sound, but it seems a little maudlin to me. Do you have an recommendations as to an album or song set I should listen to that you consider their best?
