in honor of Iron Man, presumably. Well, there's lots of "Superman" songs: REM, CTDs, Kinks, Spin Doctors... One Foghead suggested "Sugar Sugar", har har.

That would be quite appropriate, though you can't imagine how delighted I'd be if Dave went with lesser-known Archies, like "Jingle Jangle" or "Shang-a-Lang."
Other options: Prince, "Batdance" (fatchance); A-ha, "Take on Me"; Sabbath, "Iron Man"
-
A-ha, "Take on Me"
I know the video used comic-panel images, but unless there's an actual comic book being referenced... that's not what Dave's going for.

Literalists gonna be out of luck, then.

Indeed, they seemed to be struggling to get 10 songs... not a well-thought-out idea IMHO. Esp considering a James Brown Birthday Soul Patrol woulda been much easier to populate (and more entertaining).

I'm betting on "Magneto and Titanium Man" from Paul the Macca

Is it just Super Heros or can we get something frm the Archies?

Dave said there was no connection between Sabbath's "Iron Man" and the comic character, but in fact the movie trailer did use this, so there is some connection now.
Big BOS from me anyway, this isn't just a bustout for "Iron Man", it's a bustout for Black Sabbath entirely!

there's yer Sabbath, and Dave already said he's playing something from Prince, which I presume to be "Batdance", so you'll be 2 out of 3 anyway.

Well, since Charlie Brown was already mentioned, I'm guessing it's a possibility
-
FLASH! Ah-aaah!
-

And 3 Doors Down, too.
ETA: and Donavan for that matter! How could we miss this one, it also mentions Green Lantern.
-
FLASH! Ah-aaah!
Green Lantern - nice! Who wil win the most obscure Super Hero award? Diaper Man, maybe?
-
FLASH! Ah-aaah!
"and now another episode of 'Flash' Mercury, Butt Explorer!"
BOSs to Sabbath and Kinks. If Dave plays "Magneto & Titanium" I will fall down prostrate in worship, but "Batdance" will be the bustout of the decade, considering it's one of the biggest hits of 1989 and has never graced that dreaded year.
-

Sheena of the Jungle takes the pole position for the award!
-
I'm not getting the Ramones/Sheena connection to this theme.

Ah. Gotcha.
-
Is this XTC singing of kryptonite? New to me.
-
Sheena, Queen of the... Punk Rockers?
I'd've preferred the Ramones cover of the Spiderman theme. OMGWTFLOL! XTC, "That's Really Super, Supergirl"!!! another bustout!
-

from the brilliant Skylarking, which you really need to own. As to Sheena, someone called this morning to say that Joey always claimed it was inspired by Sheena of the Jungle.

Supergirl is from Skylarking, as i recall.

One Foghead suggested "Sugar Sugar", har har.
Who's laughing now!

Wahoo!

Best drumming of set -- Jughead. Or wait, I think Betty played drums.
BOS, The Archies.

I just can't believe the loveliness of bubblegum! BOS4 "Sugar Sugar" (XTC was BOS3)

Not a bustout, but we haven't heard this in 5 years.

Did Def Leopard really get the insiration for "Pour some Sugar on Me" from the Archies?
-
BOS to the Batdance. FRA, and also because it's a fascinating collage. "Vicki Vale. I like ..."

Keep bustin'! BOS5 Prince for sheer lunacy; this set is wildly better than I could've imagined -- no less than 4 bustouts so far!!!
-
but "Batdance" will be the bustout of the decade, considering it's one of the biggest hits of 1989 and has never graced that dreaded year.
"Stop the Press!" Happy Birthday MIKE!!!

No, neither did. I have remembered to call Dave about them in the past, but missed it this year. Sorry!
-
Gotta give Spin Doctors a VHM, this is the song that made me buy the album, before "Two Princes" became the big hit.
Plus it's an Alison.

Agreed. Actually, I think I bought the album for "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong".

No problem, bub. This set was a nice B-Day surprise. Set of the Week, and maybe the Month (tho' it's only the 2nd). See ya Monday for (presumably) the Cinco de Mayo Set.

Happy bday guys!!!!!!!

05/02/2008 - FRIDAY!!! International Comic Book Day!!
1. Black Sabbath - Iron Man
2. Kinks - Wish I Could Fly Like Spiderman (BEST OF SET!!)
3. Queen - Flash
4. Donovan - Sunshine Superman
5. Ramones - Sheena is a Punk Rocker
6. XTC - That's Really Super, Supergirl!
7. Archies - Sugar Sugar
8. Prince - Batdance
9. REM - Superman
10. Spin Doctors - Jimmy Olson's Blues
BONUS TRACK: Kinks - Catch Me Now I'm Falling
I'm kinda torn--it's messed up that one of the songs in the set and the bonus track are not only by the same band but on the same album. However, it's the Kinks, so it could be worse.
ETA: What is worse is that they called the first kinks tune Wish I Could Fly Like *Spiderman*--WTF?!?!?

I didn't know the Kinks did a song about Spiderman, did you?

That is freakin' hilarious! "Wish I Could Shoot Splooj Outta My Hands Like Spiderman" just doesn't scan as well. But that Black Sabbath disco mix, "Wish I Could Fly Like Iron Man", is killer.

Jug's got mad technique. And I like how Reggie rocks the Tommy James ensemble.
