"The Flying Saucer" (also known as "The Flying Saucer Parts 1 & 2") is a novelty record released by Bill Buchanan and Dickie Goodman (credited simply as "Buchanan & Goodman") which hit #3 in 1956. The song is considered to be an early (perhaps the earliest) example of a mashup, featuring segments of popular songs intertwined with spoken "news" commentary to tell the story of a visit from a flying saucer. Bill Buchanan plays the radio announcer, stating that the spacemen are attacking Earth. Dickie Goodman plays reporter John Cameron-Cameron (a play on the broadcaster John Cameron Swayze). Goodman would re-visit this character in several other 'Flying Saucer' records. The song uses clips from 18 different songs, each of which was a top 20 hit in 1955 or 1956. In order of occurrence: ==Part 1== * Open Up That Door by Nappy Brown (saxophone intro only) * The Great Pretender by The Platters (referenced as "Too Real" by The Clatters) * I Want You To Be My Girl by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers * Long Tall Sally by Little Richard * Poor Me by Fats Domino * Heartbreak Hotel by Elvis Presley * Earth Angel by The Penguins (referenced as "Earth" by The Pelicans) * I Hear You Knocking by Smiley Lewis (referenced as "Knocking" by Laughing Lewis) * Tutti Frutti by Little Richard * The Magic Touch (The Platters song) (referenced as "Uh-Oh" by The Clatters) * The Great Pretender by The Platters 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「The Flying Saucer (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
