I don't think this has been covered. I got excited reading the recent interview where Brian said he was looking forward to writing some songs. I don't know about you, but I'm lookin' forward to hearing them!

Lately my favourite originals are the mellower, moodier, less "mainstream" tunes: Sammy Davis City, Nine Lives, Rosie in the Middle, Beautiful Blues, and even Hennepin Avenue Bridge. But by far the Setzer original I love the most right now and can't get out of my head is Dreamsville. It's gorgeous, moody as hell, and the frustration, longing and sleeplessness are practically palpable. It's just about the sexiest song on the planet.

So how 'bout you? What's your favourite Setzer original right now?

Hey andi,
Gotta say that Rosie in the middle is my all time favourite song ever of Brian. Just love the way it sounds as if he just turned on the mics and started jamming. Just a great feel.
Cheers Pete.

Great choice Pete, thats what i was gonna choose, what a tune....

Hey Andi!!!

Gotta be Runaway Boys (for al the wrong reasons). I also think Storm The embassy is a well written song, although I think i'm correct in saying that Ken Kineally had a hand in some of the melody.

The best song he wrote out of the comfort zone (i.e. rockabilly girls, cars and booze) is Maria. And i love that song to bits.

The rains never came, I saw my land die. Maria was sleepin' as i kissed her goodbye

When I first heard the Dirty Boogie I was totally blown away, so this is my favourite.

For me its gotta be two non-rockabillies, Breath of Life and Love is Repaid by Love Alone, two works of genious in my book.

A song that sometimes gets a raw deal for being a "later" Stray Cats number.

Bring It Back Again.

Love love LOVE that song...

Forever and always, my favorite Setzer original is Every Tear That Falls.

Stray Cat Strut holds a special place in my heart, as it was the first song I heard by the Cats. Thing About You gets me everytime, too.

I love looking better every beer, isnt that true

I cant say that anyone as mentioned a song that Im not mad on, they are all works of art.
I love Gene and Eddie,its just so original,even though its like a medley of other songs that were done before,it just gets you the way that it's been put together.
Pure Brilliance!!!
