Yesterday's post started with James Hetfield from Metallica. Today, because I couldn't find any pictures of Lemmy or the dudes from Megadeth taking a photo, here's Ozzy.
And here are ten LOUD songs... sort of.
10. Joel makes a good impression... but he's not a footballer.
Billy Joel combines with the impressionist Rory Bremner to give the name of a Scottish footballer. And the former Rockpile member (also Scottish) responsible for this 1981 classic...
Billy Bremner - Loud Music In Cars
9. Collected names.
Didn't you ever collect autographs?
8. Dave & Roger bought a small-holding...
...and they became The Beat Farmers.
The Beat Farmers - Dim Lights, Thick Smoke (and Loud, Loud Music)
7. Find the answer in the internet: go to yahoo.
Find the answer in the internet: go TO YAHoo.
Toyah - Be Proud Be Loud (Be Heard)
6. Spider-Man spins like crazy.
5. Holey guitarist relocates to the North West.
The guitarist in Hole is Melissa Auf der Maur. Manchester is in the North West.
Melissa Manchester - Don't Cry Out Loud
I would have gone with the Elkie Brooks version, except Elkie featured here a couple of weeks back... and she never sang the song with The Muppets.
4. Unlike every other one that features on these pages, these guys were the definite article.
Lots of bands appear here, but these guys are THE Band.
3. Get Mrs A New Job sorted out.
"Mrs A New Job" is an anagram.
James Brown - Say It Loud - I'm Black And I'm Proud (Pts.1 & 2)
2. Shifting the string section after midnight is always a problem.
Hard work, moving the orchestra around in the dark.
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Talking Loud And Clear
1. Come see me at six, say hello after dinner. It's all inside.
Come see ME AT six, say helLO AFter dinner.
Meat Loaf - For Crying Out Loud
Meat Loaf, of course! I thought it was a fat Evan Dando
ReplyDeleteI understand Meat wanted "Fat Evan Dando" writing on his tombstone, but Evan objected.
DeleteEvan is, however, petitioning to have "Thin Meat Loaf" etched on his when he eventually passes.
I thought it was a woman!
ReplyDeleteAnd me, I was wondering if it was Sandy Denny
DeleteI also thought 1 was female (Myrtle Loaf?)
DeleteMe too - not much wonder no one worked it out. I won’t say who I thought it was as not very flattering. Alyson
