Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5

[Dr. Medulla]

Rock Me Amadeus - Falco

Sticking up for a dirty Austrian? Turn in your green felt Oktoberfest hat.

As long as I can keep the chamois beard.

P.S. Two Austrians, to be precise.

Great Kaiser's ghost, you're right—two Austrians! At best, you deserve to be rocked like no more than a fading tropical storm.

Not sure where the resentment comes from? Austrians are basically well mannered Canadians, no? Like, lumberjacks that drink their coffee with whipped cream.

They're Germanic wannabes whose country sounds like it should have kangaroos but doesn't.

I think you'd make a much more convincing German than me.

You probably need to stay away from the whimsy thread for a bit.

Can't be duller than the baseball thread.

Also,

Betty Davis Eyes - Kim Carnes
Tom Waits for No One - Rolling Stones

We're quite rollicking in there!

Betty was way cooler.

[Marky Dread]

Vince White’s White Power Power Trio, “We Are the Clash”
The Jazz Butcher, “Southern Mark Smith”
The House of Love, “Beatles & the Stones”
Sparks, “Lighten Up, Morrissey”
Prince, “Kiss” [prove me wrong, children, prove me wrong]

Top 5 songs that feature another musical artist in the title. So The Clash singing about The Clash is not another musical artist. Hence no one picked "Clash City Rockers".

No doubt but Bette isn't a musical artist.

The band that sang "We Are the Clash" was in no meaningful way The Clash. I will fight you and anyone else on this point until the earth is soaked with blood.
