3. nothing beats
the original.

and hells its one of the few songs i can play on the guitar.

"since i was a young boy, i played the silver ball. from soho down to brighton i musta played them all. ..."

kinda funny that a band from England would refer to amusement/pinball places in NYC. aka soho in manhattan and brighton beach in brooklyn near coney island.

6. no need for smiles
im being serious.

for non new yawkers SoHo refers to South of Houston (pronounced Howston) in manhattan, near greenwich village.

and Brighton Beach is in Brooklyn. Along the boardwalk there are/used to be arcades.

8. Not necessarily NYC............................
Edited on Wed Jan-05-05 09:58 AM by CrownPrinceBandar
There is a section of London known as Soho, and Brighton is also a very famous British seashore.

edit: Oops, didn't see your post MM. Whassup? :hi:

5. I bought the movie soundtrack before I'd heard the original(s).
If only William Shatner had been in the film and contributed a song. *sigh* Got Jack Nicholson instead. :o

Oh yeah, that's why I voted for EJ's version.
