S1500 #1 Posted May 15, 2009 The popularity of Space Invaders back in '78 seems to have inspired a LOT more songs than I originally thought. I am listening to "Space Invaders" by Eddie & The Players. A quick search revealed more SI-themed songs. "Space Invaders" - Alfa Beta "Space Invaders" - Area 51 "Space Invaders" - Bando "Space Invaders" - Bo Kool / Funk Master "Space Invaders" - Eddie & the Players "Space Invaders" - Hot Gossip "Space Invaders" - Mark Wyman "Space Invaders" - Piranhas "Space Invaders" - Playback "Space Invaders" - Player "Space Invaders" - Safety First "Space Invaders" - Uncle Vic Not sure which one of these were made back "in the day", but I'm determined to find them all. I only have 4 of them, and only one is listed above. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robotwo #2 Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) My favourite must be: "Space Invaders" - Hit'N'Hide just because it's one of those 90's classics , and because of her totally awesome haircut in the video Edited May 15, 2009 by robotwo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlepaddle #3 Posted May 16, 2009 Putting all those songs on a CD would be cool (yet an admittedly antiquated idea). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Allpaul #4 Posted May 17, 2009 Uncle Vic is a radio dj from Cleveland. He still makes records, and is regularly featured on the Dr. Dimento show. Some of my friends play in his band. Really cool guy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlepaddle #5 Posted May 18, 2009 ...regularly featured on the Dr. Dimento show... Holy cow! I haven't even heard about the Dr Demento Show since I used to listen to it back in the 1970's. I didn't even know he was still around! or is it reruns? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't even know he was still around! or is it reruns? 5-8 years ago I know it was still on. I remember them playing.....Fish Heads,Dead Puppies,Star Trekken Across the Universe and 2 live Jews!

I don't know where it is anymore though Uncle_Vic___Space_Invaders.zip I actually bought the Dr. Demento record just for that song. Do you have his other track about being in an arcade? That one was a good one too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lance_miller #10 Posted May 18, 2009 while not technically an SI song.......The Pretenders ended a song on their (first?) album with Space Invaders sound effects Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That one was a good one too. If it was the B side of the 45, maybe. Unfortunately like I said, I haven't seen that record in years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
