[col5150]

Anybody else heard the band 'A's version of daves just like paradise. Its excellent. It was the b side on there single 'somethings goin on'. It should really be put in the downloads section, if anyone can get it on, ill try getting it to you.

A are huge van halen fans as well as being an excellent band.

ive cut and pasted some of there lyrics that are quite amusing


I Love Lake Tahoe

Four long years ago, searching for the snow
We found the Tahoe lakes, just about the perfect place
50 Runs at 'Heavenly', and the nights at 'Squaw Valley'
Yeah, the trees are pretty wide, "That's where Sonny bono died"

All is quiet on New Years day, think I'll try and impress my mates
So I jump into the lake, I won't do that again, here we go again....

The south shore has the lot, and last month Dave Lee Roth did a solo spot
And some German bloke got shot, every year we say the same
"Try somewhere different for a change", but we jump on to the plane
Yeah, here we go again



AND THE SONG CHEEKY MONKEY


Cheeky Monkey

My name is Jason, I'll rock your face in, 'cause I've got relations in my band
We like Van Halen and Iron Maiden, I’ll do the talking understand?

Cheeky monkey! Cheeky monkey!

Yeah, you know I right, do you want a fight?
Stay up all night, if you’ve got the time
And any time I want to wear the place?
I’ll need to I'll be there, yeah I’ll be all right?
So get out of the kitchen, check out the pigeon
They make a messy??, above my way??
Jump on a rock bus, no one can stop us
We’re going bonkers today

Cheeky monkey! Cheeky monkey!

Yeah, you know I right, do you want a fight?
Stay up all night, cos we've got the time
And any time I want to wear the place?
I’ll need to be there, yeah I’ll be all right?

We're cheeky monkeys, just like the Bee Gees
We put our words down so they rhyme
We rock in the summer, sleep in the winter
Park where we want to and pay the fine

Cheeky monkey! Cheeky monkey!

Yeah, you know I right, do you want a fight?
Stay up all night, if you’ve got the time
And any time I want to wear the place?
I’ll need to be there, yeah I’ll be all right?

Cheeky monkey! Cheeky monkey!
Cheeky monkey! Cheeky monkey!
Cheeky!

[bigc]

I wasnt ever sure to make of "A".

but yea, Just Like Paradise by them, that ALWAYS popped up when I do DLR searches on ebay.

kudos for the respect:) I have no problem with cover versions,because it may get a new audience interested in the original version.
