The bit on Ooh La La sums up my thoughts exactly. Normally a genre I steer clear of, but the whole goldfrapp album is pretty damn catchy.

House of the Rising Sun is a real old folk tune. Woody Guthrie did a version of it. The Animals' rendition copies a lot from Bob Dylan's version.

Tons of artists covered it. It was pretty much a bar band staple in the 60s.

Yeah, I heard it a lot in dance halls and bars in the 60's but it's so old, for me, it's new again.

Nice list there Andrew..

The Fields of Athenry is my favourite Dropkick Murphy's song though. I do however love hearing I'm Shipping Out to Boston at the Dome from time to time.

You definitly need the Machine Head song Desire to Fire though. I just think it's so fitting for the Flames. At least most of it..

1, 2, **** this place up.

We turn desire to fire electric spark to the wire
highered the stakes when we brought this monster
life prevail by daring to fail others content just to sail
hail the future we bring

we bring chaos to blocks like riots to watts blow up spots,
taking the crown off the top notch
create the pace that you all will follow
sporadic flow buckles up like a calico
We D-O smoke sensmilla vodka and C-O-K-E is the real deal
you flubber, never had to suffer
life's gettin harder and it's only getting rougher
save some for me cant stop what were going to be

Chorus: walk with me and take this seed a fire for you so dare to fail will you

when my pen hits pad it results in catastrophe
words and verbs come to form a disaster
if you want it, you got it never hit I spot it
now come and watch me rise

all the tools, that blew more money than Latrell
you tell, I don't know you think I know you too well you fell
and stumbled laughin as you tumbled
I guess you forgot about the power we rock
coz "ALL HAIL THE" Machine Head battery
the good, the bad, the ugly
damaging your battery yeah you been ****ed stuck in a rut
your life has been sucked your tail has been tucked

save some for me can't stop what were going to be
just watch as as i demonstrate the reason we dominate

chorus

If we stand alone and believe it all and you tell me it's all I believe in
yes we stand alone and believe it all if you tell me it's all we believe in
because we we'll chew and spit you out
and pray upon the weaker
take what we want

chorus

The Doors do not have a version.

For some reason, if you go onto Limewire and other music downloading networks, half the "House of the Rising Sun" songs say they are by the Doors. I've downloaded it several times from several different users, and it is always the Animals version.

Somewhere along the line, some twit shared the song and said it was the Doors, and then it spread like a virus to other users who downloaded it.
