What Is This Song ?

For a long time, I've liked this song...
http://www.freejohnnydare.com/fjd/2005/01/meth/

I know it's a parody song. Just a day or two ago, I actually came across this song on the radio. Of course, they didn't say who the song was by or the band. Does anyone here know this song ?

I'm pretty sure some of the lyrics are "feel the wind in your face of a thousand races.." I may be wrong on that, though. I've tried looking it up, but nothing I found was the right song.

That's "Jet" by Paul Mcartney & Wings. I'm assuming you're fairly young as that was a huge radio hit.

I'm not that young. Though it did come out just a few years before I was born, I probably wouldn't have heard it anyway. I'm not in to that kind of music as a general rule. I do love the Beatles, though.

Re: What Is This Song ?

how does one get through life and not know the song 'Jet'?

Really quite bizarre to me.

Is it just me? Really?

There are those of us who think McCartney can shove his solo stuff back up the ass from whence it came. Especially at Christmas.

Ram, Band on the Run, Venus & Mars, Wings over America, Back to the Egg, Tug of War, and Flaming Pie want to have a word with you, SIR.

[Although I'm totally freakin' with you on that damn Christmas monstrosity...]

What is "that kind of music" that you are not into as a rule? Good music?

And here I thought Spottedfeather was a lady suffragette.

FWIW that "parody" song reminded me of why I stopped listening to terrestrial radio 11 years ago. Ugh that was fucking painful.

70s pop music.....I love good music. I didn't say that I didn't like the kind of music that Paul McCartney did in the 70s. I just said I don't listen to it as a rule. I listen to a lot of other kinds of music and usually only hear 70s pop music while I'm in between stations...
