What Song Should I Sing For The WFMU Marathon Finale!?

[bookem_dan-o]

Welcome to the Terrordome

Holy crap, this would be awesome.

[boil]

Agreed!

[Fido]

Damn, too late.  But maybe for next year, I'd like to hear "Radar Love" by Golden Earring.

Oooohhh... that's good Jasongrote.  Or he could sing "Twilight Zone."  If Tom hasn't sung that one sometime already (he probably already thought of it), he could nail it.  It would kill.  So would "Radar Love."  Or something by the Scorpions, like "The Zoo," might be an opportunity to add some campy metal weirdness.  Tom could pull it off, and it would be funny, but if I tried it, it wouldn't.

Stirring and stupid?  I can't wait!!!

[So Cow]

yeah, if we're getting in early on the 09 list...

ian dury and the blockheads - hit me with your rhythm stick

Thanks, Fido.

I think I know what it is.  But I'm not telling.

Best Golden Earring song you've never heard: "The Vanilla Queen."  Check it out.  Awesome horns at the end.

Here's a mix of some of my favorite suggestions so far and a few personal ones:

Bob Seger - "Hollywood Nights"
Thin Lizzy - "Cowboy Song"
Valerie Carter - "Ooh Child"
Kenny Rogers - "Daytime Friends and Nighttime Lovers" *
Pulp - "Common People"

And one for Dutch:
Charlie Daniels Band - "Still in Saigon"


*I will donate $100 to hear this one live

[Amplituden]

Hows about singing " The Nights on Broadway " by the Bee Gees.
That song is deep.

[Joe Don from Astoria]

That's my favorite stalker song.  So I nominate Spike to sing it.

You will donate $100 because the show has been awesome all year.

Zung!

Tom.

Too late, I know: I second "Hollywood Nights" by Bob Seger.

[Sploops]

Tom already sang along to it once before but I like pun: "I FOT in a war" by Belle & Sebastian

[dave from knoxville]

She's as Beautiful as a FOT

[steely damn]

30 Days In The Hole/Humble Pie -he sang a bit of it when back announcing it one show. I wanted more.

Radar Love/Golden Earring

Fernando/ABBA -there should be an ABBA song, this is my vote

Carpet Crawlers/Genesis

The Motels/Only The Lonely -yes, really

Simon and Garfunkel/any song off Sounds Of Silence. I dare you.

Carol King/It's Too Late

[masterofsparks]

I think Fernando might be the winner. Maybe too slow, but it hits all of Tom's other requirements and it would be really great.
