Little Help RE: Warren Zevon tune
#1

Some dude plled up beside me today blasting Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London". I started nodding along with the beat because I love that tune ....except it turned out that what I was hearing surely wasn't Warren Zevon, and wasn't "Werewolves of London" either. The music was identical to Zevon's "Werewolves", right down to the guitar sound and piano, but the vocalist was definitely not Zevon, and the lyrics he was singing did not even resemble Zevon's tune.

So does anybody know what it might have been? The guy's voice actually sounded....well....kinda like Kid Rock, but that's probably not right.

I hate it when hacks steal good tunes and soil them. :rambo:

Thanks Bonner.

I keep only good music with me under my rock. :mrgreen:

At least I could identify the voice as Rock's, so my squint-eyed trips into the daylight must be good for something.

How bad do you suck when your claim to fame is stealing other people's music and putting your own "lyrics" over it?

Ah Ouh - Where Was The Thunder

For years my buddy thought that is what the song said.
And now everytime I hear it I cannot help but sing that.
Listen to it - it fits perfectly.

I just listened to that youtube (i couldn't earlier), and realized that i had heard that song before - awhile ago. I'd only heard bits though, later in the song where the Skynnard ripoff is more prominent than the Zevon ripoff.

So it's been awhile, has he ripped off anyone lately?
