Hahahahaha, you can’t check to see if we’ve done this before.
1. Yo La Tengo, “Sudden Organ”
Was the number two the last time you did this “Not Fade Away”?
I don’t remember ever seeing this asked before! So, uh, no.
3. King Rocker, Generation X
4. Will Young, Switch It On
5. The Electric Prunes, Get Me to the World On Time
6. Hello—New York Groove
david bowie ‘up the hill backwards’
guns’n’roses ‘mr brownstone’
9. Hamilton Bohannon—Disco Stomp
10. I suppose I ought to mention “Faith” by George Michael, or perhaps the version they used for the Scottish Milk Marketing Board ad campaign which went “‘Cos I gotta have milk-a milk-a milk-ah.“
I Want Candy
This has definitely been done before :)
Not here it hasn’t.
12. Joni Mitchell—Big Yellow Taxi
13. The Fall, Dice Man
14. Moe Tucker, “Hey Mersh!”
“i’ve had it” by the gories is one of their few songs that doesn’t use the bo diddley beat, but it SOUNDS like it does
10b. Somewhere out there in internets there is a mash-up of George Michael’s “Faith” and Talib Kweli’s “Never Been In Love”. THAT.
Johnny Otis—Castin My Spell, Willie and the Hand Jive
“Big Yellow Taxi” = wtf? that is not the Bo Diddley rhythm.
