I also thought of around and around...couldn't get it out of my head to discover lyrics from Rihanna, so I've decided it doesn't count in any way shape or form...Nota Benehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00969705852180234416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633543688149775322.post-10323971545209024992013-08-06T18:22:14.503+01:002013-08-06T18:22:14.503+01:00Thanks, Deano.

I've actually been considering a separate rollercoaster top ten... though curiously, Machine Gun Fellatio were a possibility for another Top Ten I've been working on, only I couldn't find the track in question on youtube.

But you covered Helter Skelter, and you mentioned "On a Carousel" by the Hollies.<br /><br />The others I had were:<br />Merry Go Round - Cold Chisel<br />Carousel - Michael Jackson (a rare one, it was recorded for the Thriller album but didn't make the final cut)<br />Ferris Wheel - James Reyne (another rare one, a great B-side from one of my favourite artists)<br /><br />and, your fairground was missing a rollercoaster, so the best I could do was:<br />Rollercoaster - Machine Gun Fellatio - a catchy pop tune (almost annoyingly so - but not quite) from a weird Aussie band. <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzuycMpEmfEDeanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02402296752349739844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633543688149775322.post-69928281979572246452013-08-05T19:13:39.642+01:002013-08-05T19:13:39.642+01:00Gotta make a living somehow...Gotta make a living somehow...Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133900289384226725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633543688149775322.post-68831681517679101312013-08-05T17:16:38.848+01:002013-08-05T17:16:38.848+01:00Why am I not surprised to find you hanging about i...Why am I not surprised to find you hanging about in the freak tent?
