The Model, by Big Black?

Probably not.

Nope. Besides, _The Model_ is the second track on _Songs About Fucking_, and it’s not originally a Big Black song.

But, oh well…looks like this thread is going to die anyway…

I totally missed the part where it said first track on an album.

Yep, I know ‘The Model’ is a Kraftwerk song, but Big Black’s version is so much better and it was the first thing that came to mind.

This one was given to me as a riddle. Seven women standing in a line against a wall. The first one is facing the wall. The second has her back to the wall. The third is facing the wall. The fourth has her back to the wall. The fifth, sixth and seventh and all facing the wall. What song is represented?

Since someone has suggested that this thread may fade, I will at least give you a major clue. What you are seeing of these women is:

rump titty rump titty rump rump rump

**Lisa-go-blind** this one should be child’s play for you. I got the first one of Cabbage’s melodies above, but couldn’t get the second one. Yet, _Blue Danube_ was ringing in my mind. DOH!

Too easy for an old geezer like me, **Zoe**. It’s the Lone Ranger’s theme song.

I won’t destroy my _Image of Ignorance_[sup]**TM[/sup]** by posting the tune’s true title.

Hint: It’s got somethin’ to do with an arrow-shootin’ dude.
