time 8,616 Posted February 10, 2019 Toast & mpfc thinking along the right lines. but both wrong. deathray barking up the wrong tree completely. There have been several different songs of this title, though the most famous is a cover (which is, coincidentally, another rather cryptic clue) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,142 Posted February 10, 2019 LOL Take a look at the song I started this thread with! nm it's a great song. A hit from this decade, this song by a US artist (and the accompanying video) features a guest musician from a well-known US rock band. It turned out to be his last appearance.

Toast 16,142 Posted February 11, 2019 Colleagues screwed up Arya poster - wtf? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Great Uncle Bulgaria 1,287 Posted February 11, 2019 Never having heard of Arya, I googled him to discover he is a Tamil film star whose real name is the less catchy but more fun Jamshad Cethirakath. Sadly we don't screen many Tamil films in the burrow, but interestingly I have now discovered another 'celebrity' with the same birthday as me, so I've learned something useful today. No idea about the song though, unless colleagues = men at work, but neither Down Under or Overkill seem to work and I can't name any other tracks of theirs.

Nothing to do with him. Frankly I'm astonished if that was the top result.

Great Uncle Bulgaria 1,287 Posted February 11, 2019 Men at work - It's a mistake (given the 'screwed up' bit)? Also dredged up Dr Heckle and Mr Jive from from the recesses of my memory, but that doesn't seem to fit either. Assuming they're wrong, give up :-) no doubt someone else will do better than me...
