bombing quiz

[disco1999]

What track from 1985 uses Ronald Reagan infamous goofing speech:
"My fellow americans
I'm please to tell you today
That I have signed legislation
That will outlaw russia forever
We begin bombing in 5 minutes"

Hi DISCO,
the song you're looking for is performed by WAS (NOT WAS). I can't remember the name of the song right now, I will do a research for you.

Peace (paz).

zeca azevedo,
Born To Laugh At Tornadoes

Nope it's not from Was (not was)

Is it Franky Goes to Hollywood? 2 tribes ?
I know the videoclip had this spoof boxing match between Ronald Reagan and Gorbatjev.

(oh, i once heard a Franky goes to Hollywood VS Bronsky Beat remix. Anyone heard of this too?)

[Boodikka]

"Tell Me That I'm Dreaming" by Was Not Was does include samples of some of Ronnie Raygun's more amusing utterances, but I don't remember if that quote is one of them.
It probably is "Two Tribes" from Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

I read an interview with Jerry Harrison (keyboard player in Talking Heads) explaining how he had used it in a dance song. Look for it in Harrison's first solo albums (around 83/86) or in another artist produced by him.
He said these words were prononced by Reagan while checking the sound system just before recording a speech on USA national television.

it's not Franky Goes to Hollywood, and yes, Ronald did talk too much on microphone, thiking he wasn't recorded.

BUT Ronnie NEVER got a blowjob in the Oval Office--so he's revered as a "Saint". :roll:

There you go being disgusting again. Now a few more people will probably leave the board.

[markydefad]

nrgbeat,

Nope, the Ronnie Lovers are TOO PROUD that Ronnie NEVER got blown; That is HIS crowning achievement--HIS MORALITY; that's why he's a saint; that's the difference between THEM & US (Moralists vs. Heathens) :roll:

[disco1999]

It's not Frankie goes to Hollywood, it's a little further up north:
Bonzo goes to Washington - 5 minutes (We begin bombing in) from 1985 on Sleeping bags 12" records.

[Nano]

Hey, disco1999: you can tell Jerry Harrison produced that track. Also that's the only featured name in Bonzo's entry in the All Music Guide.
You're welcome!
