Ok, I obviously did that wrong! Anyway...I *think* the song is called: "Made for T.V." & I used to think it was by "They Might be Giants" but, now I'm not so sure. It mentioned Nina Hagen in the lyrics as well. It was "ska-ish" in genre & CFNY used to play it all the time. ANY help would be greatly appreciated! I've wanted this song for YEARS now!! Thanx.

"Every movie, made for TV......."
I know this tune. It was either by Skaface or Me, Mom and Morgentaler. One of these, I'm fairly sure.

Thank-you SOOO much! Now, my battle is trying to find it online!! Whew! What a job!!! "Me, Mum & Morgantaller" is ringing a bell to me now too. Thanks again!

Angela, if you look online via eMule, you may find these tunes by Me, Mom and Morgentaler: Heloise Anarchie Landlord Your Friend No More Nervous Breakdown
None of these titles mention TV, but it's a starting point.

It's is definitely NOT Me, Mom and Morgentaler. I remember songs like Angst in my Pants (a song Matthew wrote for the Marianopolis College Poetry Journal), Spittle on my Chin, No More Nervous Breakdowns, Pepita La Pistolera, By the Light of the Moon, and so forth, but nothing about TV.

Colin, *YOU* are right!!! Yep, you're the correct one! King Apparatus!! I had TOTALLY forgotten! Thank you SOOO much. Yay! Now, I *finally* know! This time I won't forget. Thanx again. It's been driving me nutty for years! I'm all happy now. Tee hee hee. Nope, it doesn't take much to flip my lid. :)

Thanks Colin you nailed it and Shazam could not.
From Fran, 3/18/2022 12:03:04 PM:
Shazam still could not guess it!! Playing on 98.5FM and it could not identity it.
