Hmm.. To make it obvious, or throw a curve ball..

"You're alright, there's nothing wrong, self-sufficience please, and get to work"

Bit of a curve ball. But never know.. :smt002

Bugger that's a hard one, so I had to google it.

Since I've cheated I'm not submitting the answer.

Will, you're a git!

Nope, had to Google that one.

Well done Wil, you picked one of my least-favourite musicians...
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Reckon Will should come out with the answer, or come up with clues...
Never ride faster than your guardian angel can fly

Blimey.. Seems it was a proper 'curve ball'.

I'll come clean.

Bjork - Army of Me

About the only one of the Icelandic warblers tunes I like. :smt003

:smt003 Can't say I have ever purposely listened to or tried to understand the tapped little icepick.

:smt017 I'm still deciphering the use of 'Tune' in the same sentence describing Bjork... :smt002

It's been a bloody long time since anyone posted a line of lyrics here.

So to get things going again...

"Scream a thousand miles,
Feel the black death rising moan,
Firestorm coming closer,
Napalm to the bone"

Motorhead, Bomber

Here's an easy-ish one, if you're of a certain age

I know a mouse
And he hasn't got a house
I don't know why
I call him Gerald
He's getting rather old
But he's a good mouse
It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your zodiac sign
I've got a Black and Silver Machine!
