Song #206

Crocodile Rock by Elton John

It was released in 1973 in his album Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player

Fun fact: In a 1974 lawsuit filed in the US District Court of Los Angeles by attorney Donald Barnett on behalf of "Speedy Gonzales"' composer Buddy Kaye, it was alleged that defendants John and Taupin illegally incorporated chords from "Speedy Gonzales" which produced a falsetto tone into the "Crocodile" song co-written by defendants. The parties reached a settlement between them and the case was then dismissed.

Bad Obsession by Guns N’Roses

It was released in 1991 in their album Use Your Illusion I

Fun fact: "Bad Obsession" is about tackling drug abuse and addiction, which had haunted the band since before they had become famous. Michael Monroe, lead singer of the Finnish hard rock band Hanoi Rocks and a big influence on Guns N' Roses, plays the harmonica and tenor saxophone on the studio version.

Song #219

Headcase by Derivakat

It was released on October 27, 2023

Fun Fact: “Headcase” is the second song in October 2023 (after “Bite”) that did have a teaser for a music video before its release date. Consequently, it was the only song from the EP that released without a corresponding music video or teaser post on its official release date. Derivakat eventually revealed the song in the EP’s tracklist announcement post on Twitter/X a day after it released, and the music video the following month.
