Backspacer Song Game

edited February 2010 in The Porch
This may have been done already but if not here it is. Since I saw the tracklist for backspacer before the release, I thought it was a piss take with the names of songs from other artists put in just to throw people off the real tracks...then with the official release I discovered it was in fact the true tracklist....so here's the game, I reckon that every song (maybe not Unthought Known :lol: ) has been the name of a song for another artist before PJ....so can you help fill the list and find the artists (I've done the obvious ones to get the ball rolling).....(just a bit of fun for a tuesday ;) )

Gonna See My Friend...........The Kinks
Got Some........................Snoop Dog
The Fixer........................Metallica - sort of
Johnny Guitar...................Grant Lee Phillips (Strangelet)
Just Breathe.....................faith hill
Amongst the Waves............
Supersonic.......................Oasis (Definitely Maybe)
Unthought Known...............
Speed Of Sound.................Coldplay (X&Y)
Force Of Nature.................Oasis
The End..........................The Beatles/The Doors

    Apparently, Oasis also have a song called "Force of Nature" (shudder)

    The very thought that there are two songs linked to Oasis makes me feel a little nauseous.

    Not a song, but someone called LoveHateHero have an album called Just Breathe

    It's called "See My Friends" but yes, it should be added to the list
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    Some band called World at Arms have a song "An Anchor Amongst the Waves." Will that do? http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuse ... =515931113

    I'm pretty sure there's no one else with a song called Unthought Known. Closest I could get was an art exhibition: http://www.whitecube.com/exhibitions/theunthoughtknown/

    Nice job. I also think it will be pretty hard to come up with anything closer to ATW, not to mention UK.

    P.S.: Yes, today is acronym day. ;)
