What is the best song spoken?

"Fit But You Know It" - The Streets

..."Dry Your Eyes" is also good.

 

Any song by William Shatner.

 

"Convoy" - C.W. McCall

 

across five aprils- a year from now

 

Baz Lurhmann, Everybody's Free (to wear sunscreen).

 

The Devil went down to Georgia. He was looking for a soul to steal. He was in a bind 'cuz he was way behind. He was willing to make a deal....

 

Case closed.

 

Desiderata

"Go placidly amid the noise and the haste..."

 

"**** Pushups" - Tenacious D

 

Zach de la Rocha's speeches in various songs

 

"Korea" - Utah Phillips (music by Ani DiFranco)

 

Ditto.
Linkage

 

"Sex With You" - King Missile

 

I liked that, funny story.

 

Does "Good Times" by Chic count?......to me it's halfway between shouting and singing/speaking.

Parts of "I Want To Be Your Friend Again" by Concrete Blonde
"I Don't Believe You Want To Get Up And Dance (Oops!) by The Gap Band
"Night Train" by James Brown
"God" by John Lennon
"Tramp" by Otis Redding
"Elegie" by Pattis Smith (she "sings" a little)
"Psycho Street" by Richard Thompson (except the chorus)

 

great call

i'd thought a vote in for William Shatner's Common People and of course

the Ballad of the Skelton by Alan Ginsberg
