TOPIC: Revamped Features Songs

Post 1 of 10
In case I happen to have a hand in the NCAA seeding again this year, I need some info on the origins of some of the new songs. This is what I have so far (some may be incomplete/incorrect):

Stick Together -->Lions Dressed In Leather (Lions dressed in Pleather/My Aunt Likes Feathers biggrin.gif)
Chemical Head --> Foundation's Cracked
I Won't Let You Down --> Gates of Hell

(I was thinking that Don't Lie to Me also either worked in to a song's evolution or it's been revamped itself)

There were a string of songs introduced this fall that I don't know much about (Damn the Mosquitos, Harmless, Martyr (Wagon Wheels?), Man Rock, Late Night, Revelations, Now You Know) and a few I've heard (Drawing Board, Take You On, Concrete, I Will Wander, Complication). I wanted to make sure none of these were revamped.

Any other interesting trivia y'all have about what songs came from where?

Discotheque's chorus was later used in The Damage Is Done, I believe.

In Temporary Blues, not Damage Is Done, but that change was made a long time ago.

Of those, only Martyr, Now You Know, Drawing Board, Take You On, Concrete, I Will Wander and Complication have been played more that once. It seems that Man Rock or Mosquitos may have been renamed "Wooden Heart" since it seems familiar.

You know I just noticed this today, but the choruses of The Damage is Done and Foundation's Cracked seem very similar. Is this also related to Chemical Head, because I don't know that I've ever heard CH?

Foundations Cracked is the more polished version of Chemical Head... if that's what you're asking. And I'm not sure it is.

Well I guess what I should've asked is are both damage done and foundations similar to CH? Or is this similarity I'm hearing between FC and DD purely in my head?

Purely in your head.
I TOTALLY AGREE!

To make things more complicated, wasn't there a small piece of "Don't Lie To me" in Chemical Head? At least just the phrase? Or was that another song?

i remeber "chemical head" first being called "the new don't lie to me." i think people were calling it the new "don't lie to me," not because it is a revamped version of the old "don't lie to me," but because the pharse "don't lie to me" was the most distinguishable lyric in the song. it was too confusing so everyone started calling it the second most distinguishable line in the song: "chemical head." i think.

all of this is really important, though, so let's get it right.
