Thanks Forostar. Finally I found the version I was referring to, it's on the Live 1976 album, that was also released in 1991 as a video.
Great stuff anyway, both the versions!

I don't want to hear any music today so my favorite song from yesterday was Deep Purple's Knocking at Your Back Door. My mates and I must have listened to that song 20 times yesterday <<drunk>> both before and after the race we went to. We couldn't hear it as well after the race but we sure were singing it loud (I guess). Great tune.
"Sweet Lucy was a dancer...."
Die Toten Hosen - Walkampf
A nice little song about a bloke who finds a stranded whale and desperately tries to push him back to the sea. Watch the video, it's fun.

I just heard 'Bad Motor Scooter', Montrose. I always forget how much I like that stuff. Tho, right now, I'm in the mood for 'Rock Candy'.... hot sweet and sticky...
"...I've got a new girl now, and she's a lot like you..." Honeymoon Suite.
I haven't heard that in ages.

Neil Young - Rockin' in the Free World:
A very good rocking song, one of his best. Really superb lyrics:
"Rockin' In The Free World"
There's colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet
People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign
on the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin'
we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan,
but I am to them
So I try to forget it,
any way I can.
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away,
and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life,
and what she's done to it
There's one more kid
that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love,
never get to be cool.
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
We got department stores
and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes
for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people,
says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn,
got roads to drive.
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.

Erm ... you brought back this thread for that piece of crap?
You may like it - to each his own I suppose - but I can't stand anything Neil Young ever did. Ever. Holy rolling Moses, does that dude ever SUCK.

I'll agree the second verse is indeed moving, and perhaps the only Neil Young bit I can tolerate. But I've always thought the first and third weren't even close to that standard.
And the chorus? I don't think it makes much sense in relation to the verses. I get the sarcasm, but it doesn't work for me.

I can't get "Out of Space" by The Prodigy out of my head.
It certainly isn't my fave song of any given day but given there is no room in my head for any others at the minute it will have to do.

Three songs. 1. Avenged Sevenfold - MIA. Not huge on Avenged Sevenfold, but this one caught my ears, and I'm hooked.
2. Pyramaze - A Beautiful Death. Barlow is in fine, fine form here, good riffage.
3. Pantera - Cemetery Gates. Yes. Yes. Yes! Dimebag, what a man.

Queen - In The Lap Of The Gods (Revisited), from the Sheer Heart Attack album (1974).
Somehow, the lyrics sound like they were made up while singing, but they have a lot of meaning to them. A great song that sounds both natural and considered.
It's so easy but I can't do it
So risky but I gotta chance it
It's so funny there's nothing to laugh about
My money that's all you want to talk about
I can see what you want me to be
But I'm no fool
It's in the lap of the gods
I can see what you want me to be
But I'm no fool
No beginning there's no ending
There's no meaning in my pretending
Believe me life goes on and on and on
Forgive me when I ask you where do I belong
You say I (you can do it) can't (you can do it
You can go and) set you free from me
But that's not true
It's in the lap of the gods

I've been listening to Lithium lately, and that has put me into a grungish mood. I love Soundgarden/Cornell stuff, but today, I'm in the mood for Nirvana- Heart Shaped Box.
