There’s a song for everything.
In the past, we’ve asked you how to make someone from Perth angry and also what advice you would give to someone moving to our wonderful city. Your answers were class and made us laugh so we put out another question on Facebook and asked you, our readers, If Perth had a theme song, what would it be?
Again, we’ve had a good time going through your responses and listening to some songs. Find below some of our favourites and tell us what you think. Do you agree?
1. All By Myself – Celine Dion
All by myself
Don’t wanna live
Some of us are feeling this a fair bit.
2. Don’t Come Around Here No More – Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Whatever you’re looking for
Hey, don’t come around here no more
While others aren’t so keen on visitors.
3. The Flintstones Opening Theme Song
Flintstones, meet the Flintstones
They’re the modern stone age family
According to some…
4. Go West – The Village People
Sun in winter time
(Go west) We will do just fine
(Go west) Where the skies are blue
What an anthem!
5. We Are The Champions – Queen
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
Positive thinking, but we’re not out of this yet.
6. Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again? – The Angels
Am I ever gonna see your face again
Am I ever gonna see your face again
Is this what we’re singing to the rest of Australia or what they’re singing to us?
7. Heaven – Talking Heads
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing ever happens
Seems some of us still feel this way.
8. The Sound of Silence – Simon and Garfunkel
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
”…because nothing is ever happening here ever again”.
9. We Gotta Get Out Of This Place – The Animals
We gotta get out of this place
If it’s the last thing we ever do
This one got quite the number of reactions.
10. The Best – Tina Turner
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
