I haven't a clue why this band sounds so familiar... only 1 song really hit numero uno in the US (as I recall, it was in 1976). Oh wait, its Don't Fear the Reaper, a perfect credit song to a Six Feet Under episode... The band Blue Oyster Cult was thankfully already on my itunes, and I realized that I also loved the hook from Burning for You.... I'm pretty sure it must have come up on my Journey pandora station a few times.
Blue Oyster Cult - I'm Burning For You by killaayla
This band is still around apparently since 1967, and originally was called Soft White Underbelly (named after a WWII zing from Winston Churchill describing Italy), a name they still used occasionally when playing small gigs during the 70's and 80's. The band originally formed in Long Island, NY and after one fateful bad review of the 1969 Filmore east, the manager decided to change their name. And pretty much every time they released a poorly received album: first to Oaxaca, then to the Stalk-Forrest Group, and finally the Santos Sisters before settling with BOC.
Here is a new band I was referred to by one of our dedicated fans.. and new up and coming band that is surprisingly catchy... and almost a modern twist of Blue Oyster mixed with a bit of Third Eye Blind vs. Silversun Pickups.
Classy ending... let the credits roll (sorry, no gay dexter in this one!)
I put my pants on just like the rest of you, one leg at a time. Except when my pants are on, I make gold records
