Nice, Root. :)

I never really got the Johnny Cash thing. To each his own. This is not bashing your offering. Just that I don't regard it as being in any way exceptional or noteworthy ... musically.lisab said:I'm pretty sure we have some Johnny Cash fans here. This is a great song (originally NIN) but the video is fantastic:

You are very correct here. It should have lasted thru dubiwa (W).
Is this it? I don't get the martial arts, native American hints.Ivan Seeking said:Trivia question: Can anyone name the song on the flip side of this 45?
Hints: Martial Arts, Native American

Ivan Seeking said:Interesting! I don't think I've ever heard of this happening before; at least, I've never seen it - one song released on two different 45s. I still have my old copy of One Tin Soldier, by Coven, on a 45, with Fire on the flip side. I always thought it was strange to not only have two different artists on a 45, but also such completely different genres of music.

This is most perplexing. Naturally, the first thing that came to mind, given your hints, was Billy Jack (I was thinking 'Ballad of Billy Jack', or 'Legend of Billy Jack' ... whatever). But that made no sense. So, looking a bit further, I found 'Rest Cure'.Ivan Seeking said:Interesting!

ThomasT said:I think your 45 might be worth some money to a collector. Is it in good condition?
Well, it's fun, it's saucy, it's got the beat. But I don't think we can have a disco tune as the best song ever. But then, this is the best songs ever thread. So, of course, this tune is a welcome addition.Andre said:I don't think the best song ever has been posted before.
1981, Anita Meijer.
Another welcome addition. But, if I recall correctly, I did this tune, or something very much like it, in my basement about 50 years ago before I learned how to play ... anything. Just kidding. Nice club music, or whatever. As you can tell ... not my cup of tea. But there's no accounting for taste. Or is there? Probably not. But then ... Actually, I liked it.Adyssa said:I'm finally going to see Aphex Twin this evening, he's been on my list for a long time! Here's one of my favourites from him:
That's a great stash. I've moved around so much that my original collections became ... disbursed.turbo said:I have a few 45s tucked away in a little case somewhere, and hundreds of LPs, some of which are quite rare or old. I have an original Buckingham/Nicks LP that didn't sell at all and ended up in cut-out bins before they were hired by Fleetwood Mac. I have two original copies of "Pure Prairie League" which was never re-released on CD for some reason, despite being the best of their catalog. There are many, many more. Some of the oldest LPs are by the Ink Spots and the Mills Brothers, and they originated with my great-uncle when I was just a little kid. None of this stuff is on YouTube, so I can't link it.
