    Songs You Always Hear In Thailand

    Usher - I hear this song many times a day when out and about in the LOS.

    C'mon, Chitown - anything but that

    When I was there, you couldn't get away from this one, I think it means 'do you want to let me be with you?'



    My favourite song by the same band, I think it means 'lying dog'

    The ever popular One Night In Bangkok from 1984 (excuse the Lion King Clips!!)




    And sometimes you get this bastardized version

    I recommend this version - someone did a great job of the video for it.

    Zombie by The Cranberries - God only knows why, it's a mediocre Irish Britpop song that the Thai's have been wanking over for years now along with that one hit wonder 'Whats Up' by the 4 Non Blondes and Better Man to name a few.

    They seem to like playing christmas music any time of the year but Jingle Bells is on constant rotation around now.

    FRIGGIN 4 NON BLONDES SHOULD BE SHOT as they bought that 1 hit wonder out and there work boot wearing lesbians with a shocking dress sense.

    Just goes to show what to much cocaine can do to a slapper.

    ~The Farmer in the Dell~.

    Hear it at least twice a day.

    I think the ice cream man has figured out my weakness.

    Some songs I purely associate with Thailand, don't hear much now but for years and years

    1. that wanky Milli Vanilli song that they never sung
    2. Snap - I've Got The Power
    3. Joan Jett waffling on about having ever seen the rain - still hear occassionally.

    Any ACDC song...music made to go go by

    I remember hearing a lot of James Blunt a year or two ago.

    Last week in Pattaya it was all the usual stuff - Aqua, The Venga Boys, that Tarzan is handsome Tarzan is strong one, and yes - One night in Bangkok

    I remember a couple of years ago. It was when I was being dragged around go-go bars by ones 'friends'. The music was all Ibiza style classics; Spiller - Grove jet (if this ain't love), Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400, Binary Finary - 1998, Darude - Sandstorm and various versions of Barbers Adagio for strings. There were a few others that I have never heard of since, including all the meaningless ones that have good production but girls singing la la la where the chorus should go (pet hate).

    I have grown to love many of the Thai ones but I can't remember any of the artists. Errr... Tiny Red Hat, is the English translation. He is a Lao singer with a good sense of humour and Pon Lang Sa-orn. Saw them live once, they did a cracking version of zombie, and I think that they had a hit single out, last year. That's about it.

    One of my goals in life is to see Loso. Yes, I am frail and unambitious -- fuck off. Many of their songs, while syrupy and a bit popish, are really good musically. Good range and nice thump (sorry, I'm on the piss and far from a music critic)

    Can't handle rap but actually tolerate the falsetto tones of moram music -- only if accompanied by a bevy of semi clad dancers. Beer helps.

    Often hear Happy Bird day

    and the Loy, Loy Krathong song.

    I must have been back a month now, but the tune 'under my umberella ella ella ey ey' is still ringing in me fvcking ears.

    Over-played Thai style in the clubs and bars at the mo.

    Pass me the karaoke mike if you dare.

    When I first came to Thailand this was constantly playing:



    In fact, round the office, a quick rendition of it meant: "Let's get festive in the bar after work."
