jman14141414 0 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 (edited) I'll pass on CeeCee's song and do Batman's song... It just flat out rocks and is more nihilistic than any Sex Pistols song(beside Bodies.) By the way it's Search and Destroy, Seek and Destroy is by Metallica.

katie_sane 0 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 'End Of The Night' is off The Doors debut album 'The Doors', released in January 1967.

Uncle Joe 0 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Clarence wants to make time with some other guy's girl. A little tryst at the No-Tell Motel. Many of Clarence's songs never made the airwaves. This is actually one of his milder ones. Shambala-Three Dog Night. Link to post Share on other sites

katie_sane 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Written by George Harrison as a tribute to his friend Eric Clapton's chocolate addiction. Many of the lyrics come from the print on a box of Mackintosh's Good News Chocolates. All the names of the chocolates used in the song (except for cherry cream and coconut fudge) are authentic.

Kevin 3 Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 EA , I wouldn't mind in the least if this thread was put in the game section . However , when devising it , I thought it was a simple opportunity to accumulate music facts/ trivia / opinions etc. about particular songs, and though I used the word 'game' in the title ... I don't think it has any game-ish qualities . Link to post Share on other sites

Earth-Angel 0 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Sure thing Kevin, it was just a shame it slipped back a couple of pages - it's a good thread! I don't know that song by T-rex, I've just started listening to them after reading one of Katie's "What song are you listening to now?" posts. So thank you Katie, T-rex are good, I really like what I've heard so far (Ballroom of Mars and Bang a gong)!

If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next by The Manic Street Preachers was the first single released of their 'This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours Album' on the 24th August (my b/day ) 1998. The song is about the Spanish Civil War and the idealism of the volunteers who joined the Internationalist Brigade to fight against Franco's fascist army.

Levis 6 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Their first music video.

Kevin 3 Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 The major , and only hit (I think ) , for a group that seemed to disappear soon after . One of those early '80s tunes that rarely comes to mind, but still seems to find its way onto oldies radio play quite regularly . A catchy tune that I enjoy still today and is a good example of the New Wave 80's 'sound' , IMO . 1979 -- The Smashing Pumpkins Link to post Share on other sites
