Bach used to play the wurlitzer in the ballroom in Blackpool Tower.

Re: Really really good but thoroughly obscure songs by well-known artists
[23:15:37] <Stew> why the lol?
[23:15:51] <MrL|Awat> Bohemian Raphosody isn't the most obscure of songs
[23:16:07] <Stew> quite obscure
[23:16:20] <Stew> i saw a thing where the rest of queen said they didnt kno wot it was about
[23:16:30] <Stew> it was so long song, noone ever bothered askin freddie
[23:17:01] <MrL|Awat> the meaning of the lyrics is obscure
[23:17:08] <MrL|Awat> the song itself is one of the best known in the world
[23:17:15] <Stew> oh right
[23:17:18] <Stew> i misunderstood
[23:17:19] <Stew> heh
[23:17:22] <MrL|Awat> indeed
irc logs are bad mmkawy yes I know.
Ok - The Jam - To Be Someone - Noel G does a cover which is good.

If you go by obscure meanings to lyrics then just about every nirvana song.

Jiame Cullen is not a well known artist.
High and Dry isn't an obscure song, it's a rather popular one especially during the late 90's.

Re: Really really good but thoroughly obscure songs by well-known artists
jamie cullum isnt obscure since he has had 2 top 20 albums in the UK (the latest of which going double platinum) plus the fact he is a regular on parkinsons radio and telly shows, aswell as the fact he has had pretty massive media exposre in general since last summer. high and dry itself is one of his earlier songs, which isnt that well known as being a cover by him so i would say it was suitably obscure, and since its a pretty good cover anyway i would say its worth mentioning.

Where did Sundays post go?!
The thread was going off-topic, i deleted a load of posts. I'm not going to let threads get derailed because of personal vendettas against other forum users. Any further posts off-topic will get the same treatment - JC

You should leave a note! Or just edit it out...
Once a thread from me got deleted without any notice. I had no idea why (honestly, I checked the rules... It had a link in it for celebrities, but NO porn! Anyway, I think people deserve to know that / why their post has gone).
