Guest spiny norman Report post Posted April 27, 2003 You'll Never Walk Alone is the theme song for Liverpool Football Club. This was just a version of it and it went to #1 because Liverpool fans are kind of insanely devoted to their club. Plus it's a pretty good song. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted April 28, 2003 Billy Joel rocks, btw. Grease is good for making little jabs with, since everyone has seen the movie at least two or three times, since schools seem to love playing the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B. Brian Brunzell 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2003 UK - "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners --- Never heard What douche bottle have you been living in? "Come on Eileen" was one of the biggest one hit wonders of the eighties. The song has an Irish lilt to it and the band wore overalls in the video. I'm sure you've heard it at some point and just don't realize it. Here's a bit of worthless info: At the beginning of the video for "Come On Eileen," the entire band is seen playing on the street corner. When you see the band at the end of the vid, the drummer is missing. He's not there because the lead singer fired him. The singer's name escapes me at the moment. I know his first name is Kevin...

Guest Pigsy Report post Posted April 28, 2003 Kevin Rowland. They had other hits in the UK with "Geno" and "Jackie Wilson Said". I'm sure I've heard them, but I can't remember how they go. I remember "Come on Eileen" though. Toora, loora, toora loorye aye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
