    [​IMG] Hmm, you may be right! And come to think of it, Frankenstein and Yyz are instrumentals as well. :p

    Well then, I have no idea what dmc's song is. :(

    :doh: I don't know "Frankestein" but since I have Rush's "Moving Pictures" the only thing that I can say for my defense is that I haven't listened it for years.

    Well, now that you mention it - no. I always just assumed it was a nonsense title, like Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4". But I'll take a wild (and I'm sure incorrect) stab at it and guess that it would be pronounced "eyes".

    BTW, when I tried unsuccessfully to Google the answer (yes, I would have fessed up if I found it ;) ), I came across a site the said the worst song on Moving Pictures was Red Barchetta. :flaming: They have got to be kidding! - that's one of my absolute favorites - not only of Rush's, but of any song.
    Idiots. :grr:

    /me pushes aside the other conversation

    Okay, me turn, me turn!

    I was elated it was over
    The room was spinnin' I was out of breath
    A cold fever, I couldn't shake it
    I woke up with a gun to my head
    He had explosives, tied me to them
    The clock would tick each time I blinked
    He drove me up to the mansion
    Set the fuse and locked the gate

    Ok. The name of the group that sings it can be found in graveyards. And also...

    "[Song Title] couldn't make into Mexico
    Doubled down gambled all the money up his nose
    Had to drive all the way back to 'Frisco
    Top Down always blastin' on the stereo"

    I thought I might have had it there for a second, but then I realised that it was just because the words "Mexico" and "stereo" reminded me of Mexican Radio by Wall of Voodoo.

    The only band I can think of is Headstones, and while I would recognise some of their music if I heard it, I'm not familiar enough to know the lyrics. And if it is the Headstones, I think they were a Canadian band without a lot of international recognition, so this could be a tough one.

    I just happen to be a big Headstones fan.

    Mellow is the man

    many many men
    can't see the open road

    "Over the hills and far away" by Led Zeppelin.

    Company always on the run
    Destiny is the rising sun
    Oh I was born 6-gun in my hand
    Behind a gun I'll make my final stand

    I've never even heard of the Headstones. Damn, I missed out on the Led Zep one. Anyway, this one doesn't ring any bells with me though.

    I'm pretty sure it's Bad Company by Bad Company, but I'll have to wait for confirmation.
