This has been sitting here long enough. The song is 'Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get' by the Dramatics. (It's one of my favourites.)

Somebody else ask one.

Just to get it going again:

"Jack Flash, rocket man, Sergeant Pepper and the band
Ziggy, Benny and the Jets, take a rocket
We just gotta fly

I can take you thru the center of the dark
We're gonna fly
On a collision course to crash into my heart
I will be your, I will be your, I'll be your..."


Just spouting off.

Numf will do - the "Ghost of' is half title and half explanation.

I'll be back in a few minutes with a quote for ya.

Okay - got one -

"Forward!" he cried from the rear,
And the front rank died.
The general sat, and the lines on his map,
Moved from side to side.

I'll give you another few lines, and if no-one gets it right then I'll give it to the closest guess -

"Down and Out
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about
With, without
And who'll deny that's what the fightings all about
Get out of the way, it's a busy day
And I've got things on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died"

There's also a small spoken bit in the middle -
"Give 'em a quick sharp shock , they won't do it again
...
I mean, good manners don't cost nuthin' do they?"

The answer is 'Us and Them' from the album 'Dark Side Of The Moon' by Pink Floyd.

So, next person who gives a toss gets to do the next one.

Try this one. There might be some people around here who are into this guy.

"I can saw a woman in two
But you won't want to look in the box when I'm through"

Wow, I'd almost think we've gotten too obscure...

Matthew, I'm going to guess Marilyn Manson, but I don't know him well enough to name a song.

Not Marilyn Manson. Not... I'm not sure how to say this. Not anything like anything like Marilyn Manson.

And he's not *really* obscure. Probably almost everyone around here has heard of him, knows at least one of his songs.

Hint: the gentleman in question is no longer with us.

Yep. The song goes like this (title in bold):

""I can saw a woman in two
But you won't want to look in the box when I'm through
I can make love disappear
For my next trick I'll need a volunteer"

Go ahead.
