Roxy Music - Oh Yeah

She Said Yeah - Rolling Stones

Yeh Yeh - Georgie Fame & The Blue Flames.

America Girl - Tom Petty & the Hearbreakers

O yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl

and without my gloves on:
American Girl - Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers

Oooooooooooh - thats one of Julie's, WH.

Trapped - Bruce Springsteen....great cover of Jimmy Cliff song.

There have been 16 hits with 'yeah' in the title, 5 of them Oh Yeahs.

Next week - songs about potatoes.

I cannot think of a single potato song. Would Hot Chip count?

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs sleeve above depicts Henri immediately on realising that a rare opportunity to hear Jack Bruce was subordinated in favour of a track that I've always thought showcased Eric and surrounded the whole 'Clapton is God' drivel.

Never mind, the campaign goes on. I'm pleased you looked up what I presume was 'The Wind Cries Mary',Bryan, and I have the impression you were minded to play it, bar all the requests for Clapton. It would have been great to hear it.I'd thought of requesting Nico Bruce but didn't want to put temptation in your way.

Or maybe it depicts Miss Babs on her return from holiday to discover that Pigs Might Fly has been scrapped in her absence -heads will roll, I'm sure.

Still, we must move on.

Do You Want To Touch Me (Oh Yeah) - Gary Glitter

Well, this would be interesting. Haven't heard Gary's stuff on the 大象传媒 for a while... and then tomorrow night we get the chance to hear Brittany and Jordan..

Oh Yeah - The Subways

Let Your Yeah Be Yeah - Jimmy Cliff

Yeah - LCD Soundsystem

Kelly's Heros - Black Grape (from 'It's Great When You're Straight, Yeah')

There are a few Beatles tracks that apply but I'd like to hear

It Won't Be Long - The Beatles - from the masterpiece that is 'With The Beatles'

regardez youse

Monster Mash?

Henri you will not hear Mr Gadd on the 大象传媒. His type are rightly frowned upon by the 大象传媒. With the exception of the "king of pop".

Yello Oh, Yeah

#8 that's 3 we have so far.

#10 They still show Roman Polanski films on the box. And Fatty Arbuckle ones, too. Despicable people sometimes create things other people admire. It doesn't make them any less despicable. I did enjoy the Glitterband till I found out about him. Now, I can't stomach listening to him/ them. Ditto Roman and Fatty.

But.... second your Jimmy Cliff.

#12/13

Re Mr Gadd.. for the avoidance of doubt I should be clarify I was being sarcastic, really about Wednesday's theme, I'd be horrified if it was even considered let alone played...I find it stomach churning that I once took the kids to the SECC (I think) to see him. I think it was a Xmas show.

#13 Good point. I also wonder where Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis fit into this. Not forgetting Bill Wyman. Nor Chuck Berry. There must be countless others who have somehow managed to avoid being taken off the playlist in spite of themselves. There doesn't appear to be any consistency to it.

#6. Don't be cheeky Adam...it's Alan Price I like better anyway, so na na na na etc. I have however heard a good Georgie Fame track for Christmas time.

I'm Alive - Jackson Browne or preferably Jackson Browne and David Lindley from Love is Strange

yeah now I'm rolling down this canyon drive
with your laughter in my head

#9

Land of a thousand dances --

" Got to know how to pony Like Bony Maronie
Mash potato, do the alligator"

#10

I've always thought With The Beatles was their poorest effort, incorporating the tail end of their live repertoire, a few weak compositions and the appalling Till There Was You. All My Loving is the only high spot. The cover's good, though.

So who says 'a bassline cannot normally be copyrighted'? Surely an original bass line gets the same protection as any other original work (melody, lyrics, arrangement, whatever) and is therefore copyright the moment it's set down in tangible form!

The yeah yeah yeah song - Flaming Lips

DC

Lots of Yeahs in the intro to 'Mockingbird' by Carly Simon + James Taylor.

#19 The opening line of "All My Loving" is one of the greatest IMO. Talking of the Beatles, one of their Dads was reputedly horrified that they used the Americanised "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" in the song "She Loves You" and pleaded with them to change it. Probably a good reason for playing it tonight.

Paul from Ayr

Yeah Night
Stubborn kind of Fellow / Marvin Gaye
Stubborn Kind of Fellow / Frankie Miller

#13 Wisnae the Glitterbands Fault

#18 Ace of Spuds / Motorhead

#9 etc. 'I Only Have Eyes For You'!!

Paul maybe the German version would be amusing:

Der Beatles - Sie Libt Dich, if nothing else it confirms the German for "yeah" is "yeah". Ok maybe not....

I bought the Beatles in Mono Box set and dont care what Glen Miller may say, the advent of Stereo was a good thing.

* Ash - Oh Yeah
Brilliant summer song - shame it's nearly autumn (leaves are on the turn here in West Lothian)


#8 That's 4

#8 Glasvegas - 'Tattie Scone'

#9 'Little Red Rooster'

With a hundred Maris pipers innaw innaw

I'm sure it'll be played at The Edinburgh Military tattie this year

Jackson Browne - Your Bright Baby Blues

This is a great track from The Pretender album and has the late great Lowell George on slide guitar and harmony so...

Frites of Philadelphia / Bruce Springsteen

#30 other brands of tattie are available.....

#33 ha ha - that's funny!

#24 and the team said

Frankie Miller? yeah, that'll be right

'I Yam What I Yam'

Oh Yeah, You're Gone - Brad Paisley -

if it's never too soon for another Morissey track then it's not too soon for another by Brad Paisley, a complete contrast the American Saturday Night and simply lovely

Oh Yeah - Bill Withers

鈥淭he greatest bass lines of all time.鈥� - Oh yeah?

2 with lots of Yeahs leading into the chorus:

* Billy Idol - Mony Mony
* The Damned - Eloise

Think there may be a bit of a 'screamey' Yeah or two during 'Pink' by Aerosmith.

Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones

oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away,

I'm Cryin' - Stevie Ray Vaughan

yeah I've loved her such a long time

She's into Something - Albert Collins, Robert Cray, Johnny Copeland

umpteen yeahs, and the (very wee at the time)kids used to chorus the first and last lines: 'Say what she do!'

"Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"...'Skinhead Moonstomp - Symarip

'Bring It On Home To Me' - Sam Cooke

"And yeah, yeah, God is great"...'What If God Was One Of Us?' - Joan Osborne.

Juliefromedinburgh that is a great suggestion - Malcolm Middleton does a nice version of that. I think Prince covered that as well?

"I said Hey Hey Hey Yeah"...'New Orleans - Ian Gillan Band.

'Get Down And Get With It' - Slade

#9 - Lots of potato songs in Ireland!

;o)


For Tuesday - Redneck Woman - Gretchen Wilson

"Let me get a big HELL, YEAH! from the redneck girls like me; HELL,YEAH!"

:o)

The big news is the launch of the campaign for an Annie Lennox Christmas No. 1 from her album of carols. I thought she was a Buddhist.

I dont think Paul Rodgers has been able to sing a song without including a fistful of "Yeahs".

Good Lovin Gone Bad - Bad Company

has a a fair few.

#50 Nah. Just hugely over-rated.

#9 Anything from the Peel Sessions

#9...'Tubers In The Moonlight' - Bonzo Dog Band.

Shaw Me - Joe Tex

My boss told me to get a potato clock so I wouldn't be late for work again!

#43

Oh a *big* second for Skinhead Moonstomp!

I was reminded by a pal of David Bowie's No.32 Smash Hit - Up The Hill backwards notable only for unusually for Bowie having a non album b-side (albeit an instrumental.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah - up the hill backwards" la la la etc.

Just listened to the Bass show on LISTEN AGAIN.

Imagine my surprise when a bass-free band was played!

The riff in Seven Nation Army may sound like a bass but is in fact (quoting Wiki) "created by running Jack White's semi-acoustic guitar (a 1950s style Kay Hollowbody) through a Digitech Whammy pedal set down an octave."

So there you go.


Would have been safer going with Jack Bruce.

Apparently he got the idea from X Factor.

#50 it will be a difficult choice for spending my record tokens this year. Annie Lennox Christmas Cornucopia or the Springsteen Darkness on The Edge of Town box Set....decisions decisions.

#14
Could have been worse Henri.
He might have been the Santa Claus at Woolies.

#39

The downside of democracy. When you pander to the majority the people don't get raised up. They get dragged down.

#61 at least he didn't get his Yeah Yeah's out

Ho-Ho-Ho!

She's About a Mover - Sir Douglas Quintet

Somebody Help Me (yeah) - Spencer Davis Group

When I was just
a little boy of seventeen
I had a girl
She was my queen -
or should I save it for the best rhymes in lyrics? as Norrie says, decisions, decisions

#63

It all went wrong with the Magna Carta.

#68

And that horse becoming Pope.

Papal Bull.

#63 Scotch

Yeah. as I was saying - see Thursday's blog #42 and thread.

I fear we may be losing him for this very reason.

#68 was Paolo running a book on that one?

#71 Give you the odds when I know the colour

#70

"...battered by continual rejection but still too stupid to call it a day."

漏Glen Miller

#70 & #73

Who are you talking about???

Namby pamby conservative presenters who cater for the masses. Unlike Iain Anderson and Bob Harris.

#75

What time is it?

>8-D

#77

GMT or just MT?

It happened just that way - Roger Miller

Lot's of Yeah's

Merry Go Round ~ Emma Bunton

fits the bill

Bel Ami ~ 听Boney M.

oops! ...i did it again ~ Britney Spears

#80

...of a pelican

#39

Bryan ain't so bad as I've painted him. But the fine music which was squandered on Bass night had me shaking my head in sheer disbelief. It could have been a magical show.










still slightly scunnered but getting better git

#83

or a GIO show!
