Is anyone old enough to remember .......

Breakfast in America by Supertramp?

I always quite liked this song, not excellence but quite good.

I am lovin the remix in the charts at the moment though.
Cupids Chokehold by Gym Class Hereos it's quality.

Yes...old enough to remember original and maybe too old to know now what is in the charts! :ermmm :)

Yeah I remember the original when I were but a wee lad. :D

Good video, but ruined a perfectly good song if you ask me!

I agree...I'm probably just a bit young to remember it coming out...but I have the album...very innovative. Not liking the remix though,

[bigcumba]

Yep, remember it as well.... also remember getting really annoyed when they had The Logical Song in the SOUNDS magazine (who remembers that!) heavy metal chart... it ain't heavy metal! I hated Supertramp back then but I've warmed to them over the years as I've heard more - haven't heard the remix yet so I'll reserve judgement on that one for now...

I quite like Supertramp and had heard Cupids Chokehold as the background music to some VT on Soccer AM a few times. I quite like it.

Thats another catchy tune, I prefer the version by Scooter though :)

This is the first video they made for Cuoids Chokehold without the freestylin in the middle http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv1okpFHU_8

The lyrics for the logical song (like the song too) are deceptively, very clever.....a great attack on utilitarianism.....

The lyrics for the logical song (like the song too) are deceptively, very clever.....a great attack on utilitarianism.....For those that don't know them:

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.
Wont you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
Liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegtable!

At night, when all the world's asleep,
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what weve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.
