We all know the three chord shuffle jibes the band gets but what would be the track listing if you compiled quo’s least typical album from their back catalogue?
1. Tommy (pr)
2. Tango
3. Heart on hold
4. Your kind of love
5. I know your leaving
6. Calling the shots
7. Baby boy
8. Lover of the human race
9. Mystery island
10. Fiji time

Actually, we are overlooking Gerdundula here as well.
Maybe because it’s been in the live set a lot since 94 but it’s a million miles away from the public’s perception of Quo

Remember playing the live version to a Biffy Clyro fan and he has absolutely no idea who it was. |

Remember playing the live version to a Biffy Clyro fan and he has absolutely no idea who it was. Good point . I think possible I was thinking on a non rock song. When POMM was used in an advert years ago and I told a workmate who it was he said :”But that’s a good song!” You can’t win !!😂 |

Not sure if my compilation is their most weirdest but am going to class it as my fave Quo songs that sound least like Quo.
My only nod to then being it only comprises an 8 track album .
1. Gerdundula
2. For You
3. And it's Better Now
4. That's a Fact
5. Lonely Man
6. Where I am
7. Who Am I
8. Oh Baby
As far away as Rockin All Over The World and Whatever You Want as you can get ? Ha.
I dont really know half of those later weird ones.

There's certainly been plenty of quirky and just plain strange things since AC
Remember PBT from 4th chord? All of it before the chorus is very, very odd
Here's the lyrics upto the first chorus (BTW I love the chorus), although the music is even stranger
Take me to another place, a place that I can go
Where nobody looks the same and everybody's slow
Nothing seems to matter, yet somebody seems to care
Even though it's clearer now, there's something in the air
Oh, oh, what can I say?
Oh, oh, what can I say?
Taken lots of sweety things and looked towards the sky
Laughed until the morning came, just me, my friend and I
Teacher seems to pass us by and only is it then
We can stop and listen and I know we'll be there when
Oh, oh, what can I say?
Oh, oh, what can I say
