It's confession time:

Yesterday I watched, and thoroughly enjoyed, the new Harry Potter film.
I also (damn you Basement Jaxx) quite like the new Lady Sovereign song "Hoodie".

"Eye of the tiger" was a classic of it's day.

Oer. I do like the band Survivor too, but I meant the awful American TV show. :/

That song's great :

Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

Chorus:
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the cream of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all in the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
For we kill with the skill to survive

chorus

Risin' up, straight to the top
Have the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

chorus

The eye of the tiger (repeats out)...

There's no comparison.

Does wanking count?
Posted by cal_DUPE1, 23rd November 2005:
 
they have baked beans, though they're celled "heinz vegetarian beans".

I vacillate between thinking some Yes lyrics are absurd and strangely perceptive.
