isn't there a Smiths song on 'Queen is Dead' that fades out in the first 10 seconds of the song?

Mark Clemente, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 19:12 (eighteen years ago)

"Suspicious Minds" by Elvis Presley (at least, my CD version)

Joe, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 19:12 (eighteen years ago)

Not a fade-out but "21st Century Schizoid Man" by King Crimson has a great fake-out ending.

We've done this thread before, but I'll repeat Roxy Music's "In Every Dream Home a Heartache".

Medicine - "Never Click"

Does Zep's "Over The Hills And Far Away" count, or is the fadeout not long enough?

Tantrum The Cat, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 22:40 (eighteen years ago)

There's an old Bluetones b-side that does this. Don't Stand Me Down, I think. doesn't sound like Dexys.

Scik Mouthy, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 22:42 (eighteen years ago)

Suffragette City, maybe?

"Suffragette City" doesn't fade out and come back, though.

Alex in NYC, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 23:22 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, I couldn't recall exactly how it went.
Hence the "maybe". Alright, I retract that post.
