What's that song where the school children start chanting at the end?

diamondsnake · #1 05-28-2005, 02:06 AM

There is a song I really liked and it was by a popular band and it starts out as a normal song and then all of the sudden these children start chanting about leaving the school kids alone or something. Does anyone know what I am talking about? I'd really love to buy this song but have no idea who sings it or even what the song title is. Any help would be appreciated!

I was just about to answer... good thing I hit "Refresh" first.

Thanks so much! The first time I heard this song I thought it was too strange but the second time I heard it on the radio, I thought it was awesome... I think I'll go down to the record store tomorrow and see if I can find it. I'm suprised something so left field was a major radio hit though. It's almost stranger then Tusk!

The Wall is a great album and the movie The Wall is great too! Did anyone see Roger Waters: The Wall where he had musicians from all genres sing songs from The Wall like Sinead O'Connor, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrisson and Cyndi Lauper? It was great!

No need for laments, Lux... once he was rid of the shackles FM had him in, his solo material set the world on fire.

Sorry, I had to.

There's no accounting for tastes and, quite frankly, the general public has none or sh*t like Ashlee Simpson would never make it.

But "Go Your Own Way," "Tusk," "Trouble" and "Big Love" were all big hits, too... so we can't discount the public's tastes altogether.

'Sides, it was just a little joke. We Stevie fans bear the brunt of a good many of 'em, so we gotta dish 'em out now and then, too.

I'm just saying that popularity is not a gauge of quality.

Don't get me wrong... I've never felt it was either.

At any rate, and as I said, t'was only meant as a joke.

I love Fleetwood Mac's music and I love Lindsey's solo music... I never find myself wishing one would sound more like the other. I prefer having the variety of two different approaches.

Although the lines between the two have been considerably blurred over the years.

Yeah, I was thinking that. And is his solo work even very adventurous? The bit I've heard isn't, really. Tusk doesn't strike me as extremely adventurous. Even Tusk, the song, while fairly adventurous, still sort of just has regular drumming and notes on it.
