I'm looking for a song that I heard often on CFNY in the mid-late 80's, and usually on on a Saturday night.
The chorus was "my name is poison", and the song was half-sung, half chanted by a deranged sounding woman. The music was a grinding, droning rhythm.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi Steph,
That is Poison By The Weathermen.
Cheers,
Paul

Geez Paul, give us other guys a chance at answering one, at least once in a while!! :) You let this one sit for almost two minutes before answering it. :)

I have that burnt to CD if you can't find it.

Hi Scott,
Got lucky with this one, was reposting another song, and steph had just posted the lyrics for the Weathermen song.
We have some tough new tracks that were just posted.

JEEZ!!! I have been racking my brain since the late 80's trying to remember who that damned song was by, too!! HA! HA! It takes the age of file sharing and the internet to finally bring it home!! Oh, man..!!! And I'm a total pit of useless 80's alternative trivia. That's the sad part. Oh, well...Can't be perfect all the time!
Thanks all y'all and Paul!!! -shoki- http://www.FUGUESTATES.COM
