    Classic song.

    Journey are making a come back. Yer man on 2fm (can't remember his name) has been trying for months to get them popular again.

    Any Way You Want It is a classic, fist-clenching, party-out, keg-swilling 80's song!

    Sorry I wasn't saying its a bad thing I just couldn't understand why everyone was picking up on it all of a sudden. I'm guessing the season finale of sopranos had something to do with it, I never watched the sopranos so thats why I missed out on it.

    i never seen a single episode of sopranos either. i jsut always liked it. scrubs helped tho! :p

    Pffft... figment of your (very active) imagination, Karl. Boards.ie and AH = same thing.

    Well the mods can obviously move it if they want. I thought it was suitable for here as has become clear it because of tv shows, and radio presenters that its become popular so maybe it should go in the TV forum, or the Broadcasting forum, or the Radio Forum. Nearly every thread in AH could be put in another forum.

    No it really couldn't go in tv. It's a song and the thread is specifically about a song so should go in the music forum.

    You know the way we have "Fields of Athenry"
    The americans have "Don't stop believing".
    You always hear it in the bars here and we eeven heard it being sung by the crowd in Yankee stadium when the Yankees were losing.

    I'd say 'yer man on 2fm' had a lot less success than the series finale of the Sopranos. :D

    [semi randon]DJ's annoying me. [/semi random]

    It's not 2fm, it is really that poor-mans Chris Moyle's effort on TodayFm thats wheeled out at lunchtime in an effort to make everyone slim down by puking their meals up.

    Actually, I think we cant mention him on the Radio forum anymore because he took personal objection to reality.

    What episode of scrubs was it on?

    You do hear it a lot.Especially.Not as much as the fields of Athenry in Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,783 ✭✭✭Puck


    Because it rocks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    I think it was the Sopranos too. It went back on the charts at no.5 after the finale aired on RTE. Thats my guess. I wouldn't think it was a coinsidence that a song that was made way back in the 80's made it back in the charts after it was heard in the final scene of the Sopranos for seperate reasons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,289 ✭✭✭gucci


    i always had the song at back of my mind as a "cool" song, then i seen the family guy thing where they all sing it in kareoke and everyone loves it, so i realised it was alot more popular and ever since its been in EVERYTHING iv nearly watched, ok slight exaduration there, but its been in Scrubs, Cold Case, Sopranoes finale, the movie monster with charleze theron and some other one i seen on tv lately........i forget what one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,849 ✭✭✭condra


    I thought it was a parody thing like The Darkness. Being genuine 80s, I suppose, it is slightly less dispicable.

    Yeah its a catchy tune. One of those cultural things which does well with students because so many of them feel that liking it makes them somehow unique and individual.

    sigh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭V9


    Great song, now to get Whitesnakes Here I Go Again back on the radio \o/ :D:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭shane86


    Awful song made popular by a woeful Sopranos episode. Ypur right, its everywhere, radio, pubs, nightclubs, jesus would it ever go back to the 80s and leave us alone. Never heard it or Journey before the Sopranos.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 272 ✭✭mcgrailg


    It was in the season finale of Cold Case as well if i remember right


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 258 ✭✭Outer Bongolia


    They should have it on A Prayer at Bedtime or An Evening Prayer or whatever the hell they're calling it nowadays

    Great track, happy to see it back in the Charts, was never a rocker in the 80's but appreciated this quality track.

    I think that program was abolished around the time Gay Byrne stopped presenting the Late Late Toy Show. As a child I used to find it hilarious that some nun would appear and have 'bit of an ol' pray' with you before bedtime but I think its stopped, I certainly dont notice it on the schedule any longer
