Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana

I have two questions about the new Roy Orbison song that's getting a lot of
play on MTV.  First, I seem to remember the song.  Has somebody done it
before?  Could it have been Cyndi Lauper, or is my memory playing tricks on
me?  Oh, I probably should have mentioned that the song is "I Drove All Night."

Second, I went to a couple of record stores the other day and couldn't find
the album.  They said on MTV that it's a "various artists" kind of thing put
out by Nintendo.  Do I have to go to a toy store to get it?  Has anybody bought
it?  What else is on it?

Thanks for any help...

LET'S GET ROCKED by Def Leppard

Do you wannna get rocked?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

I'm your average ordinary everyday kid
Happy to do nothing
In fact that's what I did
I got a million ways to make my day
Daddy don't agree
'Cause when I try to get away
He says: "You gotta find some way"

"Get your butt right out of bed"
Stop bugging me
"Get up and move your sleepy head"
Don't shake my tree
He said:
Mow the lawn, (who, me?)
Walk the dog, (not outside, man)
Take out the trash, (no way)
Tidy your room. (come on, get real)
Sorry Dad, gotta disappear
Let's get the rock out of here!

Spending weekends
Up all night
In at the deep end
Hang on tight
It won't take a minute
It won't take long
So get on in it
Come on, come on, come on

Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Did it night and day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked.

I'm your average ordinary everyday dude
Driving with my baby
To get her in the mood
She's dialing through my radio
And I'm ready to make my move
What she got ain't rock n' roll
And it really blew my groove
It was Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven
And it makes me want to scream
Off-track, off-key violins
Turn it off; that ain't my scene
Well I'm sorry girl, it's my confession
I suppose rock's out of the question

Spending weekends
Up all night
In at the deep end
Hang on tight
It won't take a minute
It won't take long
So get on in it
Come on, come on, come on

Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Did it night and day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

Well, all I wanna do is
Take a ride into the groove
Every time I wanna love
I'm stuck inside my room
Heaven knows I'm sick and tired
Of dancing with these blues

Do you feel lucky today
Hey, look at that, man
Do you wanna get rocked
Do you wanna get rocked

It won't take you a minute
It won't take that long
So get on, get with it
Oh, come on, everybody

Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked (Get on top, baby)
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked (Do you wanna, do you wanna)
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked (Get on top of it)
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked (I want to rock your rocket,
                                                   baby)
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Let's do it night and day
Let's get out of play
Rock the night away
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you wanna get rocked?

Great movie.  I saw it on the USA Network on cable several years ago.  It 
really showed the hardships endured by underground bands just starting out 
and playing in the club scene.

I happen to think that SD is a great band with good appeal to more people,
so why hasn't it caught on?

all of you APP fans probably know this but i didn't see it mentioned in any
of the posts in this string...  Tales of Mystery and Imagination was
re-released in 1987...  they remixed it using a digital system and made
some minor changes to the work...  I haven't heard the 1976 version but the
1987 version is awesome!!!  sorry about the sidetrack there... Any one just

 Well if you feel you're being told how to think by someone who is just voicing their opinion, then you obviously have a little trouble thinking for yourself.

	I think that Delicate Sound Of Thunder was good, but they should 
have had more(maybe even gone 3 CD's) stuff like Great Gig in The Sky,
One Slip, and Terminal Frost would have been great to put on a live album
(I know, I know, GGiTS, and One Slip were on the video, but its not the same)

  Well, let's just start setting up the ground rules now!  Here are the
following groups I would expect to encouter in alt.rock-n-roll.hard; note
that this is by no means a complete list, nor does it mean that groups 
encountered in this new newsgroup, if it is created, cannot also appear
in other music newsgroups as well:

  AC/DC
  Aerosmith
  Bon Jovi
  Cinderella
  Foreigner
  Damn Yankees
  Def Leppard
  Dokken
  Guns N Roses
  Jimmy Hendrix
  Led Zeppelin
  Motley Crue
  Nirvana (or any Seattle band I guess)
  Queensryche
  Ratt
  Scorpions
  Slaughter
  Billy Squier (hey, I like Billy! :-)
  Tesla
  Van Halen
  Who
  Winger

...and what is not considered 'hard'?  Would these bands below just stay
in rock-n-roll?

  Black Crowes
  Cars
  Genesis
  INXS
  John Mellencamp
  The Police
  Rolling Stones
  Lynyrd Skynyrd
  U2
  ZZ Top

  I'm also assuming that NO dance music will appear in alt.r-n-r.hard; that
includes Madonna, Paula Abdul (even tho' she is cute :-), M.C. Hammer, 
New Kids, etc.

   Well, it's something to work with...

I used to work at a top 40 radio station, (gag!!!) and over the last year I 
have seen the format get its head beaten in from country. It disgusts me me 
to see CHR/Top 40 fall by the wayside to country music. The place where I 
worked had a Top 40 station and a country station; and it was the country 
station that got all the focus and attention from the sales department. I, 
for the life of me, could never figure out why our top 40 station would not 
beat the country station in the ratings. One could say that it was the fault 
of the format, but when our station was album rock, the ratings were just as 
bad. When it comes to radio and ratings, I'd rather put my money on Marky 
Mark & the Funky Bunch rather than Garth Brooks. People who listen to 
country music are boring people. Perhaps they are depressed and wish to 
remain so by listening to country. I have a ton more stories but I won't 
bore you. Just don't change.
