Themes - list of the forthcoming Showing 601-650 of 1,064

[theDuke]

There is that Beatles one on the roof of a studio..the last concert they played before they split. Not sure if that qualifies as an odd place..but certainly unusual i would say.

Although having said that, there are those Buck house Jubilee performances by Brian May (2002) & Madness (2012)..but i don't feel as those would qualify, somehow.

[Fishy_Jim]

I know exactly what I'm going to nom. It's a somewhat claustrophobic setting.

Re: Theme 272 - Old King Cole

Help! My google-fu is failing me. I can't find any cover versions of Cole Porter songs that I like, not even The Muppets & Sesame Street versions ;-)
Can anyone point me in the direction of some links to things that would be more to my liking? Wiki was fruitless. Thanks.

Edit: Nothing on the tribute albums tickles my fancy & searching on YouTube for Cole Porter cover versions just brings up loads of random sh¡te.

[Val]

You could try

https://secondhandsongs.com/search?se...

then you'd have to look at each song, scroll down to the modern era and see if there's anyone you recognise and would be comfortable nominating.

Yeh, thanks Val, I've had a look on there already but couldn't be bothered to go through every single song. V tedious but it might be my only option :-(

Because it includes external sexual organs which some of the more puerile posters around here might have a field day with? No names, no pack drill.

An example of a dynamic moment is the drum fill from Phil Collins' In The Air Tonight.
