The Future's Maroon Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I am sure we have all walked up to a jukebox and thought "right, I'll get them with this one".... What would be your obscure hit you'd fire on the jukebox that would get folk thinking "what was that one" Mine is the classic by America - Horse with No Name... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSAJ0l4OBHM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Horse With No Name isn't too obscure. Not obscure but when I used to drink in The Antiquary in the 80's my first choice every visit to the juke box was Shot By Both Sides by Magazine.

Tott Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 On a wee side note. The latest jukeboxes take yer pic and show your puss on screen when yer shitty song is being played :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertonian_II Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Not that clever at posting video, but I'd go for the Mike Post Coalition's "Afternoon of the Rhino". I wasn't into Northern Soul but this one fired the rockets for some reason. Think it made no. 47 in the charts of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not so much now because of Breaking Bad to be fair (lol), no-one really remembered it before then in my opinion but I get what your saying.

:shitwine: Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Not an obscure one really, but Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden is one I would choose.

southcap Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Not that obscure for me but brilliant!! Generation thing I guess.

frankblack Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Some of these suggestions for obscure tracks are a bit of a moot point if you can't find them on the jukebox! I generally stick on something that isn't obscure but a classic e.g. 9 minutes of Freebird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
