Oh yeah
Mm
Still don’t know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought I’d got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I’ve never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I’m much too fast to take that test
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time
I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
So the days float through my eyes
But stil the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They’re quite aware of what they’re going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Where’s your shame
You’ve left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can’t trace time
Strange fascination, fascinating me
Ah changes are taking the pace I’m going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Oh, look out you rock ’n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now you’re gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can’t trace time

I hardly ever listen to the radio or watch popular TV, so I have no clue what song that is.
From looking at Bryn, I'm guessing I should be thankful ^^

When Shrek and Donkey are all good-looking after taking the love potion, the song plays as they travel through the city.

Shrek 2...

...had the worst soundtrack. They played Funkytown.
I HATE FUNKYTOWN!!!!!!
Three years ago I had a summer job for four months, and Funkytown was one of the songs that was played over and over and over and over...
And now, at my new job, Funkytown is played at least once per shift, but often twice, because the station that the store's speakers are turned to often repeats songs in an 8 hr time span. And so again I hear it over and over and over...
Seriously though, when I saw S2 in theaters, I had to cover up my ears and hum until the song was over to keep from dropping into berzerker mode. There are only two redeaming qualities about the movie (luckily, they make up for a whole lot):
1) The sequel is just as funny and interesting as the first movie, which is sadly a rare quality in sequels.
2) During the climactic battle, they played "Holding Out For A Hero" - one of my most favorite songs EVER!!!!! I fell in love with that song during the climax scene of Short Circuit 2, and of course that was right aroudn the time YH was airing, so the lyrics didn't hurt winning my favor...
Where have all the good men gone, and where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
~happy sigh~ So yeah. Except dor the two songs that force me into a fetal position as I rock and hum with my hands over my ears, I like Shrek 2. "Accidentally in Love" was a good song too ^_^ But Holding Out For A Hero is still one of my all-time faves.

"Where have all the good men gone, and where are all the gods?

Yayyyy, techno!

aimee - three years I worked at Cedar Point, an amusement park in Ohio, USA. They played Funkytown, "Ain't no cure for the summertime blues" and most of the hits from the Beach Boys over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over... You get the drift. If any of those songs come on the radio, the stations better be changed quickly of berzerker mode threatens - although the forced listen-to-ment of Funkytown at my new job has helped me build a little bit of mental armor... still, I try to disappear into the back (where the speakers don't reach) whenever the song comes on.
My new job is at a Tim Hortons (a kinda coffee/doughnut/bagel fast-food place that's open 24/7).
