Two Songs Left

OK...I have a cassette tape I recorded off the radio one night in '92-'93 in Houston Texas. It was all dance songs played on Sat night, music from the club scene at the time. I had totally forgotten about this tape until recently when I dusted off all of my old tapes from the basement. The sound quality sucks but you can still hear the music. It braught back some good memories of the tunes at that time.

I have been able to identify all but 2 of the songs left (I got the name of 3 of them right here in this forum...you guys are awesome). They are difficult since I have never heard them since...here goes -

the first begins with James Earl Jones voice inviting Mikhael Gorbachev to a chess match with a female voice doing a news report in the middle of the song describing the match betwen the American President and the USSR. Part of a verse in the song asks "why did the russians invade Afghanistan". It seems british and possibly a mix.

The second song I am looking for has no lyrics but has a deep male voice going "um dada um doedoe, um dada um doe". The male voice makes several different drum type sounds which are immediately matched by drums.

Thanks in advance for all of your help. Hopefully someone will recognize these.

For the second song, it sounds like something Bobby McFerrin would do.

The first one could a dance remix of Roger Waters' "Me or Him"
(lyrics follow)
You wake up in the morning, get something for the pot
Wonder why the sun makes the rocks feel hot
Draw on the walls, eat, get laid
Back in the good old days

Then some damn fool invents the wheel
Listen to the whitewalls squeal
You spend all day looking for a parking spot
Nothing for the heart, nothing for the pot

Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
Oh how he wanted to talk to the people,
he wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New York
Listen tot the Welsh kid talk
Communicating like in the good old days

Forgive me father for I have sinned
It was either me or him
And a voice said Benny
You ****ed the whole thing up
Benny your time is up
Your time is up

Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
He wanted to talk to the people
He wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New York
Listen to the Welsh kid talk communicating
Like in the good old days

Forgive me Father





Welsh Policeman: Mobile One Two to Central.
For I have sinned
Welsh Policeman: We have a multiple on the A465
between Cwmbran and Cylgoch.
Father it was either me or him.
Father can we turn back the clock?
Welsh Policeman: Ambulance, over.
I never meant to drop the concrete block.
Welsh Policeman: Roger central, over and out.

Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
He wanted to talk to the people
He wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New York
Listen to the Welsh kid talk
Just like in the good old days
The good old days

Radio announcer: Do you really think Iranian terrorists would have taken
Americans hostage if Ronald Reagan were president?
Do you really think the Russians would have invaded Afghanistan if Ronald
Reagan were president?
Do you really think third-rate military dictators would laugh at America and
burn our flag in contempt if Ronald Reagan were president?
Concerned Citizen: Well, it might work!
Hostage: We as a group do most importantly want to beseech President Reagan and
our fellow Americans to refrain from any form of military or violent means as
an attempt, no matter how noble or heroic, to secure our freedom.

Concerned Citizen: Sure! Only it's going to be mighty dangerous for you,
Cassidy

Hoppy's faithful sidekick: guess you don't know Hopalong Cassidy, Mister.
Adventure's his bread, excitement's his butter and danger, why to him that's
like strawberry jam to top it off.

Jim: This is some live rock and roll at KAOS, where rock and roll comes out of
chaos and a song called "The Powers that Be"...

neither of those are it but I sure do appreciate your response.

One I think is : American - Soviets Lyrics By C.c.c.p.
these are the lyrics

G: Godd evening
this is Mr. Gorbachev-
R: Hello
Gorby
this is the White House
Ronald Reagan speaking-
G: Hello
my old friend
how are you today ?
R: Fine ! It's time for our daily chess-match
are you ready ?
G: Yes
my last move yesterday was the Queen from A6 to B6-

They both send their weapons into space-
their people's problems they seem to displace-
the arms-race is what they can't negotiate-
why ain't it chess about what they debate ?

What went wrong on the Gulf of Iran ?
Why did the Russians invade Afghanistan ?
Why not save the money for the armaments

and be chess-partners in the turnament ?

Reagan and Gorbachev play chess on T.V.-
the senat is giving a party on the sea-
the nuclear war will forever be banned-
it's only their kings which they have to defend.

That second song!!!!!!! I know exactly the one you are talking about. This one's gonna take me a few to find. I'll get back with ya.

the first song does sound like it might be "american-soviets" by c.c.c.p. the second song is most likely "din da da" which is originally by george kranz but was remade by kevin aviance.

Those are it....you guys are amazing...I bow to you all. Thanks soo much.

Is this the first song?
