FAVOURITE SETZER SONG

HEY GANG!
Don't think that it's been mentioned yet, but what's your favourite Setzer song? Could be any of the incarnations of the bands.
I've always loved Stray Cat Strut and Rock This Town because they made me wan't to play the guitar.
But I gotta say my all time favourite must be... Rosie In The Middle, because I just love the energy and feel of the song.
Well that's my 2 cents...what's yours?
Cheers Pete.
P.S. My daughter Ella Rose is writing this next bit... I like Brian Setzer's Christmas songs

My all time favorite is Rumble In Brighton of course.

Then everything else!

Great question Pete, so many to choose from, there are the usual classics such as Rock This Town and Runaway Boys but just at the moment i have to say any track from Ignition, i can't get it out of my stereo at the moment. So, if i must choose a song today it has to be, Who Would Love This Car But Me? If i was to answer tomorrow i'd most likely have another song..lol

HEY AusseSam,
OH YEAH, don't know if ya mess around with any cars, but....how true is this song!!!
I've got a 1969 xt gt, 1966 xr wagon, 1966 xr falcon 500 and a 1930 bsa, so trust me I can really relate to that song!!
Great selection on da jukebox AussieSam, cheers Pete.

I mean, it's really hard to pick just one.. At the moment I am really loving Americano and Switchblade 327.. but then I'll listen to another album and fall in love with another song all over again!

Haha, I have Stray Cat Strut as my ringtone, Drive like lightning... as my alarm tone, and a chinese GONG!! as my message tone.. freaks me out when it goes off!

I have a couple of favorite's from all albums,but cant narrow it down to just a few,that just to difficult,as every song,is good.

Thats why we are all fans.

Wee Mark.

Agreed that it's hard to pick just one. Right now "Live Nude Guitars" is getting constant play.

All-time favorite is Every Tear That Falls.

It is virtually impossible to single out just one song, or just one CD for that matter. They span such a long period of time (sorry Brian, I'm not saying that you are old - I'm older...), and each have such distinct and different "personalities." They speak to me in different ways depending on my particular mood. One CD that I always enjoy is Ignition, but then I like certain things about all of the CDs. Oh, I don't know...now I'm getting confused...

So true Kiki.

Right now for me its I Won't Stand in Your Way.

Can't decide between "Stray Cat Strut" (original Cats version, not BSO with extended bass solos) OR "This Cat's On A Hot Tin Roof". Play them both constantly!!!!!!!

Hey Kid, is your avator your artwork? Very nice and I like it a lot!

Stray cat strut, First song i ever listen to with the cats.. It was back in 1983 and i was 14 years old. Sold all my heavy metal records after that! Thanks Brian.

it's a tie...stray cat strut, drive like lightning and ubangi stomp. i can't choose just one!

This is an impossible task. I guess if I had to pick one, Rock This Town would be it. I absolutely love his version of Sleepwalk also.

Chains around your heart!
From "The knife feels like justice".
But we all know that one don't we?

ROCK THIS TOWN with no doubt: the studio version is perfect and almost all the live versions (with the Cats) are amazing:

My favorite Songs are always changing, but at the moment my favorite is Ghost Radio from the ultimate collection, I just Love the energy of the Bigband on this Song.

Haha oh I wish!! No I am a character in a new comic 'The Haitian Incident'.. It was drawn by a woman by the name of Christy Lou.. If you would like to check out the rest of the comic CLICK HERE .. In short it's set '55 in a hotel on Haiti.. it's about rockabilly, voodoo, zombies, lust and death.. I am the concierge of said hotel, apparently I give people a bit of attitude (I say apparently because only the first 18 pages are up so I don't really know).. All the characters are based on real people, and all the bands are real bands that you can go and see..

Even if you didn't draw it, I LOVE it!

I think Lust & Love off the CCHF album is sheer genius...."I feel as empty as those beer cans, rolling past my feet. I can hear Chicago blues from an outa tune guitar - there's a 1939 neon sign buzzin' above the bar"

Otherwise its gotta be Lookin' Better Every Beer!

Or Drink That Bottle Down - Live version off the back of Stray Cat Strut. It's cool that Tommy got the drinking cat logo as the backdrop for the main website.

Or....Or.....Little Miss Prissy

Or...Or....Or..... Johnny Kool (part 2)

Oh heck - no chance of picking just one!

Im going for a lesser picked one. Buzz Buzz is unusual enough to be awesome.

Gotta go with Rock this Town, but I also love House is Rockin' today.
