Identify a song from very dubious descriptions…

fretmeister

My brother is trying to remember a song from about 25 ears ago:

“Hey, music question - name the song, you used to listen to it.

Starts with cartoon voices sounding like seven dwarfs ‘diedeediedohdiedeedeedeediedoh’ and then the voices get killed by some really thrashy guitars”

and

“Nah, it’s not that one. There’s no talking bit, just squeaky voices singing die dee die doh etc and then thrashy guitars and the Smurf voices scream like they’re dying”


Anyone got an idea?

Not sure that's what I'd consider to be "really thrashy guitars" but the rest of the description fits the bill

Also it's quite a bit older than 25 years, but it straight away popped into my head on mention of 'diedeediedohdiedeedeedeediedoh'.

Could be something by System of a Down

That's not cartoon voices.

Metallica - frayed Ends Of Sanity
Accept - Fast As A Shark

That's got to be it.

I was going to suggest Fast as a Shark but I didn't think it quite fitted. But hey maybe it does. 

Fast as a Shark by Accept.

I thought Something was by The Beatles.

It can't be anything else, surely.

Bingo and a free sausage to @Reverend ;

Accept.

As it happens we worked this out late last night too. If he had mentioned Germans and sort of yodelling / folk music then I would have got it straight away.

I loved them in the 80s. I still play "Objection Over-ruled" sometimes.

Has to be Udo though!

I'm genuinely disappointed it's not related to the hamster dance

I got a Breaker shirt last week.

I'm genuinely disappointed that I now know it exists

This should be a permanent game where you take turns describing a song badly.

This might just be my favourite thread in ages   
@fretmeister   just how many ears does your brother go through ?
I'm still stuck with my original fucked up ones & could use some replacements.

Accept. Fast as a shark.

I used to work in a record shop. People would get quite annoyed if you didn't recognise what they want from either a terrible description, or them actually trying to hum or sing it.

Way more people are tone deaf than they realise.
