"I've Got A Fever..."
I was watching SNL not too long ago and I witnessed what is possibly one of the funniest skits in SNL history. In a parody of both VH1's Behind The Music and Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear The Reaper", Christopher Walken stars as hit producer Bruce Dickinson and Will Ferrell as BOC member Gene Frenkle. The band is irritated by Gene's erratic cowbell playing, but Bruce can't seem to get enough cowbell. As he puts it- "I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!"
Well this naturally started up a discussion about the greatest cowbell songs of all time. Here's what we have compiled so far:
1. Don't Fear The Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult
2. Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet - BTO
3. Hooked On A Feelin' - Blue Swede
4. Lowrider - War
5. Can't Get Enough Of Your Love - Barry White
6. Honkey Tonk Woman - The Rolling Stones
If you have any songs worthy of this list, we would appreciate input. Be aware that all emo and most rap will not be accepted, being that neither is real music. We are looking for songs with a shitload of cowbell, not just one clunk. And also, we already looked online (we're not imbeciles) so don't send us any lists or links to lists. And one more thing- "When I'm finished with you, you'll be wearing gold-plated diapers!"
