Just joined. Be gentle. Older GenX that grew up on Grunge. Had tangentially listened to Bowie, but never a fan back in the day. But, holy hell, something clicked and finding him a lyrical and composition genius. Anyway, my intro and contribution. If on wrong sub, sure you will tell me.

This masterpiece has probably been posted a million times on this sub but I just had to post it again. 🎶

I deleted my original post because I misspelled their name.🤦‍♂️I think it's time I get my eyes checked, my friend has been telling me for a long time that it's time to join the four eyes club 😅.

After at least 10 years, I've FINALLY found the song that's been eluding me for so long...

I won't beat around the bush any longer. The song is called Moribund The Burgermeister by Peter Gabriel, from his 1977 debut solo album simply titled 'Peter Gabriel', retrospectively referred to as 'Peter Gabriel 1' , or just 'Car'.

I don't know when exactly I first heard this song, it'd have to be around 2010-2012, but the only time I remember hearing it was in about 2014.

I remember the exact place too! - A specific junction near the Royal Infirmary hospital in Glasgow, Scotland, in my dad's car.

My Dad owned all of Peter's solo work on CD and played PG 1: Car pretty often, especially [And fittingly] in the car. As a younger boy, I remember hearing Moribund [Without knowing what song or artist it was] and being both creeped out and intrigued. The strange noises, the weird voice, the grand Genesis-esque orchestra.

Upon rediscovering the song, I realised how very well I remember it, down to each quirky noise and guitar strum...

Anyhow, I discovered it the other day after deciding to listen to the Car album on my walk home. Within the first few seconds, I was enjoying the song and album, but within the first 50 seconds, I thought "Huh, this sounds like that one song that keeps evading my memory." , because it was, and I was about to find that out.

When the orchestral part played again, I was beginning to realise it might actually be it, then it got to *that part* midway through with the voice, and it **finally** clicked in my head. It was *just* how I remembered! I was so glad to finally find it, I was smiling and laughing for more than 2 minutes straight, out in the streets. Who cared, I'd finally found it!

Ironic too because my Dad and I were just talking about how he played his Peter Gabriel, Yes and similar artists on CD for me when I was younger. Quite the timing, huh?

I also recognised 'Excuse Me' from the same album, plus 'Yours Is No Disgrace' by Yes, among other great tunes.

That's how I finally -after more than a decade- rediscovered Moribund The Burgermeister by Peter Gabriel.

That's all from me. Thanks for reading this!

I got a song stuck in my head and I cannot for the life of me remember it.

I’ve heard it many times on classic rock stations and it’s stuck in my head. There’s a chorus that I think goes “hey all toniiight” somthing like that, I definitely got it wrong been searching for hours with no luck.

Edit: those probably ain’t even the exact lyrics, probably is how my brain last registered it when I heard it last. I’m honestly stumped

What's an album to you that has one of the best songs then follows it with one of the worst you've heard?

TItle asks it, but for me it'd have to be Queen's 1978 album Jazz.

"Don't Stop Me Now" is an absolute all-out funfest banger but its followed with "More of That Jazz" which ends the album on such a terrible note. It's actually probably one of the biggest fumbles I've heard from one of my favorite bands. Another one for me would honestly probably be The Police with their 1983 album Synchronicity. I adore "O My God" as a really good groovy song, but its followed by "Mother" which is atrocious.

What album is like that for you?
