Must have been the sedatives…
I’m putting forward “A million white flowers…” the opening line of Kaleidescope’s “The Flower Children”
Oh shucks :smack:, this is my favorite Ramones song (this and Cretin Hop), so as mascaroni said, I must’ve been sedated.
26 Miles across the sea - Santa Catalina is waiting for me
16 Reasons why I love you
16 Candles make a lovely light
7 little girls sittin’ in the back seat kissin’ and a huggin’ with Fred
1 Night with you (elvis)
One summer night…
Get off my lawn…
After my brief foray into sixties British psychpop, I’ll attempt to restore some musical credibility with:
“Two fingers, poking at the world”, the opening line of “Love And a Molotov Cocktail” by the British punk band The Flys.
Doubtless all of you already knew this:
All subsequent verses of 99 Luftballoons / 99 Red Balloons start with ‘99’, but not the first verse.
Bob Dylan, “Changing of the Guards:” “Sixteen Years…”
bah! Missed post #47! :smack:
“Der Kommissar”
The original German version by Falco begins: “Two, three, four…”
The English remake by After the Fire begins: “Zwei, drei, vier…”
If the word billion counts as a number:
Billion Dollar Babies - Alice Cooper
“Billion dollar baby
Rubber little lady, slicker than a weasel
Grimy as an alley
Loves me like no other lover”
“Check It Out” by John Mellencamp:
A million young poets
Screamin’ out their words
To a world full of people
Just livin’ to be heard.
Stereo Sanctity - Sonic Youth “Seven…SEVEN!”
The B-52’s: “6060-842”
The theme to Laverne and Shirly
Pink Floyd Waiting for the Worms
“A hundred bottles of beer on the wall…”
The OP didn’t say it had to be a good song.
100? It’s 99!
Every Ramones song ever.
1, 2, 3, 4!
Another one just popped into my head, a product of my 1980s childhood, although it might only resonate with the Aussies in the audience:
Little Heroes, One Perfect Day
One perfect day,
we’ll be out walking
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young:
“Happy Birthday, happy birthday baby oooh I love you so, sixteen candles …”
Twenty-five or six to four… Chicago
Wait - does the OP mean the first word of the song’s lyrics is a number? Or any lyric?
Good lovin’ The Rascals.
One, two, three–good lovin’
