"Like Clockwork" is a single by The Boomtown Rats. It was the band's first to reach the Top Ten in the UK Singles Chart, peaking at No. 6. Described as "simple, cool", in concerts supporting ''A Tonic for the Troops'', the song's agitated, staccato bassline made it a common show opener. The B-side, "How Do You Do?" was a fast-paced punk/new-wave song, in the mould of the band's earlier work. However, the Irish version of the single, released on Mulligan Records, substituted the B-side with "D.U.N L.A.O.G.H.A.I.R.E", a tongue in cheek samba, discussing the spelling of the band's home town, written Dún Laoghaire but pronounced Dunleary. The latter was later released in the UK as a free flexi disc, distributed by ''Flexipop'' in January 1981. ==Personnel== * Bob Geldof – vocals, saxophone * Pete Briquette – bass, vocals * Gerry Cott – guitar * Johnnie Fingers – keyboards, vocals * Simon Crowe – drums, vocals * Garry Roberts – guitar, vocals 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Like Clockwork」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
