The one-armed bandit stole the match! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh man this is two songs that I absolutly love! Metallica - Master of Puppets "Master of Puppets" is a song by thrash metal band Metallica. It is the title track of their 1986 album. It shares a similar album structure with Ride the Lightning in having the title track as the second track, preceded by a shorter, high-speed typical thrash metal track. There are several such track similarities on Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice for All. "Master of Puppets" is also notable for its long instrumental section beginning about three and a half minutes into the song. The song, as Kirk Hammett explained, is about "Manipulation. Various forms of manipulation, which can go into entirely different subjects which we could talk about for hours." Vs. Stevie Nicks w/ Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Stop Draggin' My Heart AroundStop Draggin' My Heart Around was the first single from Stevie Nicks' debut solo album Bella Donna. It was written by Tom Petty and Mike Campbell, and Petty sang with Nicks in the chorus and bridge, whilst his entire band played on the song. from the music videoThe song reached #3 on Billboard and in reaching #7 in Australia remains the only Top 10 hit which Petty has played on or written. It was not a success in Europe, however: reaching only #50 in the UK. The lyrics are about a woman who feels weighed down by relationships and wants to part despite a strong sentimental attachment to her lover. The melody is described by All Music as "dark and sinister"[1], probably because of the dense drumming of Stan Lynch which is the most prominent feature of the song's rhythm. Apart from the intro before the first verse and a solo following the second verse (where there is some fairly heavy riffing), however, the guitar sound is laid-back in typical Heartbreakers style.

David Bowie - China Girl"China Girl" is a song which was co-written by Iggy Pop and David Bowie during their years in Berlin, first appearing on Pop's album The Idiot. However, it was not popularized until it was released by Bowie on his album Let's Dance. Bowie decided to put the song on his album when Pop, his old friend and musical collaborator, was in financial straits and was close to facing bankruptcy. Bowie decided to release the song on Let's Dance so that Pop could collect half the royalties (as co-writer of the track) and get back on his feet financially. An edit of David Bowie's 1983 version was also released as a single. Vs. Dio - Holy Diver"Holy Diver" is the first single released by heavy metal band Dio, appearing on their 1983 LP, Holy Diver. Although it only reached #40 on the charts, it is one of Dio's most popular songs. The song is prominently featured on the soundtrack to the radio station V-Rock in the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and is also one of the tracks on the game Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s. It was also played in the South Park episode Hooked on Monkey Phonics, and Philadelphia Phillies slugger Pat Burrell used the song in 2005 and 2006 as his at-bat music. The song was also the lead off song in the Matchstick Films Ski Movie trilogy. The music video seems inspired by the film Conan the Barbarian; Dio is featured as a barbarian adventuring through a desolate town, First he strikes with his sword two rascals, but instead of killing them he turns them into rats. Then he later visits a blacksmith who reforges his sword.
