Is that Spiegel singing the "You got the Cubs game on the Score.." jingle?

its a total ripoff of a george thorogood song (move it on over?) which is a ripoff of some old blues standard.

I thought a ripoff of some other song not that one though. Sounds to me like one of those 60's songs where girls do some sort of weird hand waving dance.

I haven't heard the jingle, but for the purposes of edifying my pal Hatchet ...

(a) the word you're probably looking for re: the jingle (assuming your ear is accurate) is either 'cover' or possibly 'parody'; ripoff is, for example, like what Vanilla Ice did to Queen/Bowie
(b) that's not a Thorogood song ... Thorogood 'covered' it ... it's a Hank Williams Sr chart
(c) it's a 12-bar blues ... there's only so much variation one will find on the changes to a given 12-bar blues chart
(d) there are more songs written based on a 12-bar blues format than you or I could name given the rest of the month at least

I'll send you a bill for my time. Given how little it's worth, it won't be much.

It was a lazy effort that also sounds a bit like "Go Cubs Go"

I can't imagine a more damning critique.



True enough; you mentioned Speigs and in my head I heard him singing the jingle for Feldco, thus my choice of word. Notwithstanding, the rest of my post is accurate.

I know thorogood is a ripoff of legit blues guys but to me it sounded exactly like a thorogood song. whitey acts tough kind of thing.

It's a 2-minute song. Yes, it is Tributosaurus.

It's not a ripoff.

That's like saying every stadium ever built after the Roman Coliseum was a ripoff of the Roman Coliseum, or every PotUS is a ripoff of George Washington.

OK. a song with little artistic merit.

Let's take it easy on the Thorogood bashing, here, goddamn it!

Maybe not, but is a lazy effort.

so, Don. when's your cover band's next gig?

I have this feeling that you'd have difficulty playing the radio, let alone an actual musical instrument, so I'm not quite sure what your Hub-like riff is meant to indicate. It's not my fault you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Besides that, I asked Gloop a question, not you. I'm just wondering how precisely he defines a lazy effort, and how exactly it's measured, for example.

I was the best cello player in my high school class I'll have you know.
