FL, I love that song by the Crash Test Dummies. It is on my playlist at work and I hear it about every other day. I must have been asleep at the wheel and not watching when you posted it to the trivia game.
And I was not aware of a video for the song. If I recall correctly the song itself was only released as a 'B' side here. I had heard at one time it was only ever released in Canada. Now I have to find the video.

Well, I am Canadian, so I've seen it on our Canadian music video channel, Much Music. If you have satellite, you might get Much (and Much More, and Much Vibe, and Much Rap - I was shocked to see how many channels they have on satellite) and you might see it if the music trends go back that way. You might also catch the videos for "The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead" and "God Shuffled His Feet", which look, to me, like they're supposed to all match. *shrugs*
Curiously, "Swimming In Your Ocean" got way more radio play on local stations than "Superman's Song".
OR, if you have no satellite, but do have video and sound capability on your computer, check out the videos on http://www.crashtestdummies.net/

Well that sucks. None of their videos work. Probably the connection I have at work is blocking them. I'll have to try them from home.

In the meantime here are some new lyrics, from Mark Collie's In Time.
I can hear what you're thinkin' All your doubts and fears And if you look in my eyes in time you'll find, The reason I'm here
And in time all things shall pass away In time you may come back someday. Live once more Or die once more But in time your time will be no more
You know your days are numbered Count 'em one by one Like notches in the handle of an outlaw's gun You can outrun the devil if you try But you will never outrun the hands of time
In time there'll surely come a day In time all things shall pass away In time you may come back some say Live once more Or die once more But in time your time will be no more
I can hear what you're thinkin'

I can be a nightmare of the grandest kind I can withhold like it's going out of style I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen And you've never met anyone who's as positive as I am sometimes
You see everything, you see every part You see all my light and you love my dark You dig everything of which I'm ashamed There's not anything to which you can't relate And you're still here
I blame everyone else, not my own partaking My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known And you've never met anyone who's as everything as I am sometimes
You see everything, you see every part You see all my light and you love my dark You dig everything of which I'm ashamed There's not anything to which you can't relate And you're still here
What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go
You see everything, you see every part You see all my light and you love my dark You dig everything of which I'm ashamed There's not anything to which you can't relate And you're still here
And you're still here And you're still here...
"Everything" by Alanis Morissette. It's my song obsession for the day as I'm in one of those 're-thinking my life' type of days at the minute. Yeesh.

I used to love this song - back in the 60's. It's so bitter. I still love it.
Where Do You Go To My Lovely Peter Sarstedt
You talk like Marlene Dietrich And you dance like Zizi Jean-Maire. Your clothes are all made by Balmain And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair. Yes there are You live in a fancy apartment Off the Boulevard St. Michel Where you keep your Rolling Stones records And a friend of Sasha Distel. Yes you do
But where do you go to my lovely, When you're alone in your bed. Tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head. Yes I Do
I've seen all your qualifications That you got from the Sorbonne And the painting you stole from Picasso Your loveliness goes on and on. Yes it does, When you go on your summer vacation, You go to Juan-les-Pins With your carefully designed topless swimsuit You get an even suntan On your back and on your legs.
And when the snow falls you're found in St. Moritz With the others of the jet set. And you sip your Napoleon brandy, but you never get your lips wet. No you don't
But where do you go to my lovely, When you're alone in your bed. Won't you tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head. Yes I Do
Your name it is heard in high places You know the Agha Khan. He sent you a race horse for Christmas and you keep it just for fun, for a laugh, aha aha. They say that when you get married, It will be to a millionaire. But they don't realize where you came from And I wonder if they really care, Or give a damn.
Where do you go to my lovely, When you're alone in your bed. Tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head. Yes I Do
Ah, remember the back streets of Naples, Two children begging in rags Both touched with a burning ambition To shake off their lowly-born tags, So they try. So look into my face Marie-Claire And remember just who you are. Then go and forget me forever But I know you still bear the Scar deep inside, yes, you do.
Ah, I know where you go to my lovely When you're alone in your bed. I know the thoughts that surround you, 'Cause I can look inside your head.

I listed this on the "current favorite songs" thread awhile ago. I just love the message of someone being totally accepting of another person. Actually, not just accepting of it, but loving it because the dark stuff forms a person as much as the light does.

"My Woman Drank Up All My Silverale"
I got off work in the space-mine, Came home 'bout a quarter past nine, And I thought there was somethin' funny, I got no answer when I called for my honey.
So I opened up the space-fridge, And soon I was about to hemorrhage, Cause in the fridge there was nothing to drink, Just an empty bottle in the kitchen sink
Oh, my woman drank up all my Silverale And she ran off with the space-milkman I shoulda known better than to trust her When she couldn't even use a space duster
Oh, my woman drank up all my Silverale And she ran off with the space-milkman, I think I could put up with their ilk, But I don't even have no milk

For all you who love a good old-fashioned Love song........................
-Gonna tell you a story that you won't believe But I fell in love last Friday evenin' With a girl I saw on a bar-room TV screen -Well I was just gettin' ready to get my hat When she caught my eye and I put it back And I ordered myself a couple o'more shots & beer
CHORUS> The night (you know) that I fell in love with A Roller Derby Queen------ round & round oh round & round The meanest hunk o'woman That anybody ever seen-- Down in the Arena...
-She were 5 foot six & two-fifteen A bleach blonde mama With a streak of mean She knew how to knuckle And she knew how to scuffle & fight! -And the Roller Derby program said That she was built like a Fridg-er-ator w/a head Her fans call her "Tuffy" But all her buddies call her "Spike" <Repeat Chorus>
-Well I could not help it But to fall in love With this Heavy-Duty Woman I been speakin' of Things looked kind of bad Until the day she skated into my life -Well she might be "Nasty" She might be "Fat" But I never met a person Who would "Tell Her That" She's my bleach blonde bomber My Heavy Handed Hackensack Mama!!! <Repeat Chorus>

I say "Don't you know?" You say you don't know I say "Take me out" I know I won't be leaving here I know I won't be leaving here I know I won't be leaving here With you

The radio's loud and she's rollin' the the battery Her best girlfriends are piled in the backseat She's puttin' her lipstick on 'Cause there's a Mustang blowin' his horn
Cadillac Red Singin' as she passes by Cadillac Red See that hillbilly fly Catch her if you can She can outrun any man <chuckle> Cadillac Red...
