Hi all!

I've been rereading the books and I always like it when I get a song reference. Recently, I was participating in one of the threads where I heard that 'No Cure for the Paladin Blues' was also a reference to a song. I don't know actually which song!

And then, it got me thinking: how many references are there for music in OOTS?

I got some, of course, like:

Another brick in the wall

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0383.html
Meet me in St Louis

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0493.html
Stairway to Heaven
and
Eye of the Tiger

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0591.html
Sympathy for the Devil (title)

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0582.html ( I think the title refers to seaside rendezvous)

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0635.html
Paint it Black

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0665.html
In the Flesh (same title)

This one is the champion, with so many references:

All you need is love
Let it be
Come together
Here comes the sun
(I didn't get 'I'm making a hole...')
(Neither the following one, 'bang bang')
And also, the title refers to Black Bird

Riders on the storm

I think, as said in another post, that No Cure for the Paladin Blues references 'Summertime Blues'. Is it?

And many others. And I actually started noticing I don't know many of them.

So, I thought: what if we could actually put them all together and listen?

So I created this playlist in spotify:

https://open.spotify.com/user/12172222385/playlist/1cUAUyaYM1FE4FM9xU1iY

What do you all think? Can you help put up the references to songs you get? Can we all maybe make a compendium?

Beatles is not in Spotify :/

Let me know what you think, and also, if there's anything that actually shouldn't be there. Maybe I think I got a reference, and it was no reference at all!

Thanks!

I'm sorry! I searched for 'music' in this forum and found nothing. Has anyone already start this?

If yes, I'll delete it right away!


EDIT:
I'm so slow! Adding it there!


EDIT 2:
Do you know who sings it?

It is sort of a folk song.

Two more Beatles songs--"Fixing a Hole" and "Maxwell's Silver Hammer".
