Cover songs you would like to hear the BREAKFAST play [MERGED]

[jocelyn]

"same as it ever was" is "Once in a Lifetime."

"Life During Wartime" is the "this ain\'t no party, this ain\'t no disco, this ain\'t no fooling around" song.

Life During Wartime has always been my TOP choice of TH songs for B\'fast to cover. That would be FUCKING AWESOME.

I got some groceries some peant butter to last a couple of days.....

[jocelyn]

I\'ve changed my hairstyle, so many times now, I don\'t know what I look like.

Really though.

[Gordo]

i totally agree on Life During Wartime.. the two others that, IMO, would blow Burning Down The House away are 1. What A Day That Was (although the female vocals make this song, itd be hard for TB vocally) 2. Making Flippy Floppy

Burning Down The House annoys me, maybe its cuz ive heard it so many times

[FindYourself...]

id like to hear them do Born Under Punches by talking heads.

any zappa, inca roads especially

theres a dead song that has like three names called "king solomon\'s marbles/stronger than dirt/ milkin the turkey" that they could tear to shreds and it is pretty obscure.

pink floyd\'s sheep would be huge.

talking heads are great. If you like them, go check out the current british band called franz ferdinand. They fit right in with the lyric and musical style of talking heads.

Bonus points: Identify what a talking head is, or who franz ferdinand is/was

[Igziabeher]

franz ferdinand was the King of Austria that was assassinated right before WW1, no?

[FrankZappa]

correct! Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, the heir presumptive to the throne of Austria. His assassination by Gavrilo Princip on June 28, 1914 in Sarajevo was a trigger for World War I.

[Igziabeher]

wow, i guess i did retain some knowledge from high school.  

what do i win?

[jocelyn]

A talking head is what you are looking at on tv right now on any given news channel.

Going blah blah blah this is how the world is and should be.

Literally, and originally, a televised person who talks directly to the camera, usually for a while, and whose head/upper body only is shown.

However the more current use of the word is in a derogatory manner.

The song is just called King Solomon\'s Marbles. It has 2 parts which are named. You got the titles of the parts right.
Exactly like That\'s it for the other one in that it has different parts but is just one song.

i know its been done and I have seen it before but I really wanna see echinda\'s arf again

Yea def second that notion....was lucky enough to see it my first show (1/26/01) and since the band has become so much tighter since then, it would be an experience.

[FrankZappa]

Leith - I know sarcasm when I see it, but you can\'t skip on a chance to make fun of the websters horrible sound system and 15 opening bands schedule.

yes, yes, yes! Play all of these!!!

[leith]

Yeah that\'s true. Man I really hope by the time The Bfast makes it "big". The Webster is either gone or renovated because I really do not want to ever experience that sonic mess.

oh and the band should cover "I\'m a little teapot" It\'s in the public domain and NO ONE else covers it.
