This song was the first of its kind to be produced. There is a loud guitar opening followed by yelling from a man who talks about an amusement park ride that is well-known in Britain. A visual hint:

in this song you'll hear a percussion sound in the beginning, you may not know what it is, but it's the sound of a something hitting a coca cola glass bottle -
Re: Musical quiz thread.
"Stinkfist" by Tool? Or possibly "Eulogy"?

Re: Musical quiz thread.
nope... the song was written in the early 60s... another clue: the musician's surname is Crocettti though he changed it to a stage name
:wink:
ah what the heck, a third clue: the name of the song is also the name of a city in the United States -

Re: Musical quiz thread.
Hm, would this be one of their later songs? It seems so, they never said things like that in their earlier songs. Oh, and I should make a guess:
I Am The Walrus
Bad guess, but there's so much going on in that song I figured it would be worth mentioning.

Re: Musical quiz thread.
Yep, it's Hey Jude.
Seleucid: you really have to listen for it, but it's there. Apparently John Lennon missed a chord or something and said "****ing 'ell!" in the middle of the recording, and they left it. -
Re: Musical quiz thread.
Earlier today I went next to the speaker and set the iPod to play at 2:55. As it played I heard the faint sound of John's cussing, and, I must say, that is an interesting find. There are probably a few other minuscule things in their songs I should listen for, but that'll be next time. As for the current question, I have no clue. Originally Posted by Justinian

Re: Musical quiz thread.
