HossC Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 I have a cover of this by The Georgia Satellites, which would have been appropriate as they're from Atlanta, but that version doesn't seem to be online anywhere. Quote
MaryAnne Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 I'm pretty sure Brian's got this one in his record collection...Saturday Night - Bay City RollersS-s-s-saturday niiiiiiiiight..s-s-s-saturday niiiiiiight.... Quote
HossC Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 I was trying to resist this one. It's a piece of Europop by a former Danish model that seemed unavoidable in the summer of '94. It looks like you guys in the US missed out .Saturday Night - WhigfieldAs a saving grace, this song did end the 15 week run of Wet Wet Wet's cover of The Troggs' at the #1 spot in the UK charts.

HossC Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 Great instrumental track from 1961. Those of you on my side of The Pond may recognize it as . Those of you in Ireland may recognize it as the closing theme from Ray Foley's lunchtime show on TodayFM. Quote

HossC Posted October 8, 2011 Report Posted October 8, 2011 Some alternative rock from North Wales. This takes me back to my school days . Quote
waikiki23 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 Storm Front - Billy Joel (I loved this song as a kid ) Quote
HossC Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 Brewing Up A Storm - The StunningGreat track from 1990. Probably the best known track from this Irish rock band. Quote
MaryAnne Posted October 10, 2011 Report Posted October 10, 2011 Storms Never Last - Jessi Colter & Waylon Jennings Quote
HossC Posted October 10, 2011 Report Posted October 10, 2011 Riders on the Storm - The DoorsThere's a killer on the road, his brain is squirmin' like a toad ...This song is so atmospheric that I can easily convince myself that it's raining outside when it's over (although as I live in Ireland, it usually is ).

HossC Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 Ghost Town - The SpecialsA 30-year-old hit from the British 2 Tone ska band. It reached #1 in the UK charts in the summer of '81. Quote
HossC Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 I didn't get a chance to post this when we did 'last night' songs last week. From the album 'Whatever and Ever Amen', this track is about throwing a leaving party for a guy who never leaves. Quote
HossC Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 I can't believe that we've never had any Kenny Rogers in this thread.Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town - Kenny Rogers & The First EditionThis time I was lucky, and found the too . I didn't realise that anyone had covered Dream Academy's 1985 hit. Their was filmed in and around Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire (a northern town in England). Thanks for posting the new version. Quote
lost_sheep3 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Cheap Trick - Take Me To The TopNot a great video, but I couldn't find one with them live on this song - too bad...it's a really good song. Quote
Capt_Redneck Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Back to the 70s (this was from 96 though) Quote
HossC Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 Slightly unusual, mainly spoken track from Damon Albarn's other band. I've had this CD for several years, but until I looked up the video I never realised that the narrator was Dennis Hopper. Quote
