    Re: Favorite Obscure Song

    Okay, maybe someone can help me with this one: there's a song in the movie "Nightmare on Elm Street" (the first one) that goes,

    "Oh no, it's a nightmare
    (no it's just a dream)
    Oh no, it's a nightmare
    (no it's just a dream)"

    Freakin' hilarious. I think it's in the closing credits. Gawd I always wanted a copy of that but could never find it or the band. Does anyone know that song or that band?

    I think Dokken did "Dream Warriors" (another great song, btw) from the third movie. This is from the first movie, and I'm pretty sure it's not Dokken.

    Are you sure? It's pretty wussified, even for Dokken.

    I remember being all cheesed off that they wrote it when I was kid.

    Then again, I was a kid.

    So...No, I'm not sure.

    Re: Favorite Obscure Song

    Hey, weird. Superman by the Kinks was inexplicably running through my head the other day.

    I'll nominate Almost With You by The Church

    and

    just about anything by Split Enz, who should have been bigger than they were in the US. I heard the Finn brothers say in an interview once that everyone they met in the US said they loved their music, but no one ever bought their records, so they assumed they must have been victims of the biggest home taping racket ever.

    A friend of mine saw Eddie Money perform in the last 10 years or so, and had front row tickets. He was wearing a girdle, for real. He could see his apparatus-constrained fat belly through his sweat-soaked shirt. Tasty.


    My obscure song for the benefit of the 30-and-40-something Cincy natives:

    Fear is Never Boring - by the Raisins

    WEBN used to play that single a lot... Also another gem from some hometown artists is... and I'm not too sure what the title is... but it is by a duo called Two of Hearts and some of the lines went like this... "For once in your life, if you can be a man" "Can you do it, can you put her out of your heart, are you strong enough". Hear it once in a while on WGRR.

    GAC - I wouldn't call some of those songs "obscure" except maybe Ten Years After's and Uriah Heep's singles. The rest are by well known groups. To me, obscure usually means both the song and the artist.

    listened to Hurdy Gurdy Man lately? Great.

    Wheels, you should've added a "dude" after, "It's totally Dokken"
    (Sorry. I lived in LA for a minute)
