    Katy Perry (or some similar spelling). It is so overplayed and yet catchy enough to lodge in you brain. You're up, post some Rush.

    Given that you claim to be sure a big Rush fan, I should demand that you actually name the "last part" (Grand Finale), but I'll give you a break this time. :p

    You're up, dmc.

    This isn't that hard -- hints: The band's name is a profession and the song's name is a comic strip.

    Last post before I just give up:

    It's all a game
    You're not the same
    Your famous name
    The price of fame
    Oh no
    Try to liberate me
    I said oh no
    Stay and irritate me
    I said oh no
    Try to elevate me
    I said oh no
    Just a fallen hero
    Don't wanna hear about the drugs you're taking
    Don't wanna read about the love you're making
    Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
    Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking




    Someone out there should get this.

    Just off the top of my head it sounds a little like something from Bob Dylan's- Hurricane... not sure though, really just a complete guess.

    And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
    And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it

    I thought this one would have been guessed in about five minutes!

    HINT: This is by a well-known American singer/songwriter. The song is from 1962, and the artist is still active.

    Oh dear, I really thought this one would be a softball. Sorry, I didn't mean to stall the game.

    Here's the first verse from the same song:

    Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
    Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
    I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
    I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
    I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
    I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
    I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard ...

    Well, based on the hint in your previous post, I'm guessing the artist might be Bob Dylan, but I've never been much of a fan (I can't stand his voice), so I have no idea on the song.

    I've been informed by a usually reliable source that it is Joan Baez, Hard Rain.

    Well, between you you've got it right. :) It's A Hard Rain's A-gonna Fall" by Bob Dylan.

    I think dmc must be up as he came up with the title.

    Edit: I thought this a softball. Hint: Ritchie Blackmores band after Deep Purple. It's from their masterpiece second album.

    Take your hands away from me
    Leave my eyes so I can see
    It's not pleasure that you seek
    You destroy the ones who are week
