YAQS - Rod.H - 02-28-2006 This song was one of Top Gear's top 5 driving songs (Highway Star & Bat Outta Hell were in the list), but it took till after I heard it used in connection with a Russel Swift stunt driving demonstration where the thought of 'this could be a power song' --- Tonight Im gonna have myself a real good time I feel alive and the world turning inside out yeah! And floating around in ecstasy So dont stop me now dont stop me cause Im having a good time having a good time Im a shooting star leaping through the sky Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity Im a racing car passing by like lady godiva Im gonna go go go Theres no stopping me Im burning through the sky yeah! Two hundred degrees Thats why they call me mister fahrenheit Im travling at the speed of light I wanna make a supersonic man out of you Dont stop me now Im having such a good time Im having a ball dont stop me now If you wanna have a good time just give me a call Dont stop me now (cause Im havin a good time) Dont stop me now (yes Im havin a good time) I dont want to stop at all Im a rocket ship on my way to mars On a collision course I am a satellite Im out of control I am a sex machine ready to reload Like an atom bomb about to Oh oh oh oh oh explode Im burning through the sky yeah! Two hundred degrees Thats why they call me mister fahrenheit Im travling at the speed of light I wanna make a supersonic woman of you Dont stop me dont stop me Dont stop me hey hey hey! Dont stop me dont stop me ooh ooh ooh (I like it) Dont stop me dont stop me Have a good time good time Dont stop me dont stop me ah Im burning through the sky yeah! Two hundred degrees Thats why they call me mister fahrenheit Im travling at the speed of light I wanna make a supersonic man out of you Dont stop me now Im having such a good time Im having a ball dont stop me now If you wanna have a good time just give me a call Dont stop me now (cause Im havin a good time) Dont stop me now (yes Im havin a good time) I dont want to stop at all Queen - Don't Stop Me Now Re: YAQS - Bob Schroeck - 02-28-2006 Actually, Rod, that's the song I erroneously referred to as "Supersonic Man" in DW2 -- the song he uses to get to Bunko's amusement palace when it's beseiged by boomers in an attempt to draw him out. Or maybe it's called "Supersonic Man" in Warriors' World. Yeah, that's the ticket. -- Bob --------- For Jor-El so loved the Earth, he sent his only begotten son... Oh... - Rod.H - 03-01-2006 Heh, it must be an obscure Queen song if it slipped though the pre-reader catchers, heck as I said in the first post, I hadn't heard it till Top Gear & that stunt driving show. Well you've got both a Concordance entry and a Offical Song list update out of it now. It's on Queen's Jazz album if your looking for it, not to mention being on the greatist hit ones...now I gotta work out why I missed it on the greatest hit disk at hand... --Rod.H "Every car must have a copy of Queen's greatest hits, its a law of nature." Re: Oh... - Bob Schroeck - 03-02-2006 Actually, no, not very obscure at all; I remember hearing it on the radio in my teens. And it's certainly on the one "Greatest Hits" tape I had through the 80s and 90s... -- Bob --------- For Jor-El so loved the Earth, he sent his only begotten son... Generation Gap in action.... - Rod.H - 03-03-2006 ...or radio station playlist politics? Okay got'ya.Tis to me an obscure Queen song which should receive more airplay than it currently does - next time I hear a song requestage call-in slot on the local FM radio, I'll put it up. Upset the Bohemian Rapsody, Another One bites the Dust & Radio Ga-Ga lovers. Now to find a local FM station that still has a request line and's not a glorified iPod Shuffle..... --Rod.H Re: Generation Gap in action.... - Bob Schroeck - 03-03-2006 Mmm. Haven't heard "Radio Ga-ga" in a long time. If you really want to upset the playlist nazis, ask for "Barcelona" by Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe... -- Bob --------- For Jor-El so loved the Earth, he sent his only begotten son... Re: Oh... - Norgarth - 03-04-2006 This is mostly a comment on Rod H's tagline about 4 posts up, specificly: "Every car must have a copy of Queen's greatest hits, its a law of nature." That line reminds me of a book I read by Terry Prachett called 'Good Omens' (not part of his Diskworld series but similarily odd). In the book one character comments that any tape left in a car for more than a month (I think) transforms into a copy of Queen's Greatest Hits.__________________ That which does not kill us... has made its last mistake. ___________________________ "I've always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific." - George Carlin Re: Oh... - Bob Schroeck - 03-08-2006 Just as a footnote, Pratchett co-wrote "Good Omens" with Neil Gaiman of "Sandman". And if you've never the seen the book, dear reader, run, do not walk, to your local bookstore and get a copy. -- Bob --------- For Jor-El so loved the Earth, he sent his only begotten son...

Re: Oh... - Sweno - 03-13-2006 Chiming in for the Joy that is Good Omens, definetly a non-standard take on deities.
