Do you ever buy an album and unexpectedly know a song from it.
This weekend I bought Relationship Of Command by At The Drive-In. (Damn you people on here, I spend so much on albums because of you).
Anyway I started listening to it and when I got to the 3rd track (One Armed Scissor) I realised I knew and already liked the song. It's pretty much the signature song played at this pub that I often go to on a saturday night, I've always enjoyed dancing around like a maniac when it comes on. It's been said on DiS before but why didn't I know about this band when I was 15.
Anyway does this ever happen to anyone else?
P.S I know it's taken me a while to get into At The Drive-In, is this punishable by death on DiS?
no
any sign of the bus girl yet? (that was you, wasn't it?)
That wasn't the question, but no.
I got a lift while I was waiting for the bus so I may of missed her.
i answered your question!
i said "no"
It's just that I'm kind of getting fed up with it..
...I never see her, nothing to report. AS BLOODY USUAL!!!
never happened to me
but i think cedric would be happy that you dance around like a maniac :)
Yep, plenty of times.
Biffy Clyro, had heard 57 on the radio and then recognised it when I got Blackened Sky.
Same with British Sea Power's The Decline Of... with Remember Me, and Waltz No. 2 by Elliott Smith when my dad gave me XO.
It's a very pleasant surprise :)
i only borrowed it, not bought it
but when i "first" listened to Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder I realised that I'd heard almost every song on it either as a sample or a cover.
When I bought Rumours by Fleetwood Mac I knew I was going to know some of it, but not as much as it turned out that I did.
and i've definitely seen bands live
and then gone "oh they do THIS song?!?"
A couple I can think of
Saturation - Urge Overkill: Dropout features prominently in an episode of MSCL
Bandwagonesque - Teenage Fanclub: Is This Music? was the goal of the month music on match of the day a few years ago
