Dr.Dave Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 We're not gonna take it. The first two lines of the verse , what does that melody remind me of ??? Keen to have a crack at this song but I do like to nick bits of other songs and wedge them in for a laugh. I know the ' Wo wo wo etc ' bit in the middle is 'God Save the Queen' by the Pistols so I'll stick a bit of that in but it's not being able to identify the verse that's frustrating me. Terrible thing , this middle age sh*t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevB Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Probably not what you're thinking of Dave but you could probably work a bit of Alice Cooper's 'Elected' in with a bit of brute force and ignorance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOD2 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Well it's a dead ringer for the melody from an old Camel instrumental track.... but you don't strike me as a prog-rock fan so I suspect it's not that !# ("First Light" from the "Rain Dances" album 1 - from around 1min 9 secs in) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCSjt_FmNjw Edited February 27, 2014 by BOD2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Dave Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'm about 80% sure it must be the Honeycombs so thanks to those of you who said that. something else buzzing ( ) around in my head though tells me it's not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I was. And Dee Snider is that bird from Sex In The City, Carrie. The fact that you never see the pair of them together lends further credence to this theory.
