In yesterday's post I lamented the grammatical confusion caused by Bob Dylan's
Lay Lady Lay (Eric Clapton's
Lay Down Sally is another culprit). Don't despair however, you can still use pop music to improve your English and here are five songs that use lie and lay correctly in their titles and/or lyrics.
1. Keren Ann
Lay Your Head Down
2. Hello Sailor
Lying In The Sand
3. Mazzy Star
Lay Myself Down
4. Paul Young
Wherever I Lay My Hat
5. Moby
Lie Down In Darkness
