| That was a solid episode, with highlights by Edie Brickel, Sam Brown and S-Express. Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.  That episode was from 16th Feb 1989. _________________ |

"Rocket"
Ah ah
Ooh ooh
Ah ah
Ooh ooh
White lights, strange city, mad music all around
Midnight street magic (ah) crazy people crazy sound
Ah ah
Ooh ooh
Jack Flash, rocket man, Sergeant Pepper and the band
Ziggy, Benny and the Jets, take a rocket
We just gotta fly
I can take you thru the center of the dark
We're gonna fly
On a collision course to crash into my heart
I will be your, I will be your, I'll be your
Rocket yeah satellite of love
Rocket yeah satellite of love
Rocket yeah satellite of love
Rocket baby! C'mon, I'll be your satellite of love
Ooh ooh
Ah ah
Ooh ooh
Ah ah
Spotlight magnetic razor rhythm laser love
Guitar, drums, load up, stun!
Ah ah
Ooh ooh
Jet Black, Johnny B ,Gene Jeanie, Killer Queen
Dizzy Lizzy Major Tom so c'mon
We just gotta fly
[Repeat Bridge]
[Repeat Chorus]
Rocket baby! C'mon, we're gonna fly
[interlude]
Oooh
Countdown commencing...fire one
Five, four, three, two, one, zero...we have liftoff
We just gotta fly
[Repeat Bridge]
[Repeat Chorus]
Rocket, baby, guitar, drums, light up
We're gonna fly, rocket yeah
Satellite of love, we're gonna fly
Rocket yeah, satellite of love
Rocket yeah!
Did someone get paid to write those lyrics?  _________________ |

Mmm, it's like Wendy James had been rummaging through Doctor and the Medics's waste-paper basket. |

When this was out I thought it was just about the most boring and tedious song I'd ever heard - and yet it got to number one! I've grown to sort of like it and understand its meaning somewhat - and in fairness it looks like they only ever played random bits and pieces of it on Top of the Pops so one can never quite get the gist of it. |
