Credepopsup Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 UK - When I need you - Leo Sayer. US - Love Theme from "A Star is Born" (Evergreen) - Barbara Streisand. :headshake Some of these UK Number 1's you guys haven't heard of are so terrible. Don't look them up and try to listen to them. Believe me - You'll need months of therapy. Especially "The Wurzels", "The 1970 World Cup Squad" and "Enya"..Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 09:14 AM) It is also still a superior song. NIN and Manson fans, don't get in a tizzy, I like both of those bands, I just think Gabriel did a better job with a message. William, I wasn't addressing you exactly, so much as all of the people that have never heard some REALLY big hits from back then. And yes, I am sure many of the songs you have heard but are just not familiar with the bands and titles. But there have been a few listed that have seriously shocked me for people to have NOT heard or to know the name of. "Come On Eileen" is a song where he says the title almost every single line. I'll list the songs I am surprised got the "never heard of it" if you would like. Trust me though, some of these songs are better to be forgotten. Though "Come On Eilleen" is a cool song... I understand where are you are coming from. The thing that makes me mad the most is songs getting remade and many kids just think they're brand new.

U.S....Starland Vocal Band...Afternoon Delight That reminds me of PCU with David Spade. Jeremy Piven, John Favreau etc., locked all the PCU college of governors in and left Afternoon Delight playing eternally on the CD player.

Rex Kickass Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I have a special space in my heart for the Starland Vocal Band. Maybe's its the tattoo I got of their logo on my right thigh in my boogie van. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
