2/Breakbeat-y track. "Neighborhood" type bass sound. Be-be-dop scat vocal at the start of the track. The vocal is kinda jazzy. The only lyrics I could make out were "Of the many facts making the list of life, truth takes the lead, begin to relax, knowin' the gist of life, it's (?) you need"

another song ID question:
a friend's wife is trying to identify a song from a 20-year-old mixtape. i've not heard it, but i'm told it sounds kind of like mink deville (although she says it sounds more like billy joel). anyway, the lyric i've been given is, "country man is on the case/cleaning up the big disgrace." also there are background singers repeatedly singing "your honor." on the tape case the was just ID'd as "Your Honor," with no artist given, but it's entirely possible that's not the real name.
i have searched all of the likely sources and come up empty. ideas?

I think it is We Will Rock You by Queen.

Okay, the song I'm thinking of was some kind of club hit circa late 1996 early 1997. I heard it in gay clubs. It had a driving dance beat and this electronic piano line over it and that sort of quickly went up toward a certain note and one note above that and then down one note. It was an instrumental. Please help because this is going to drive me out of my mind. I believe it was high on the charts as well, but I can't be sure.

ok, it's probably an 80's song, sounds somewhat like Dream Syndicate (it might be somehow connected to them), only with depressed singer,and a sense of desperation in the song and the chorus goes something like "you don't need anything" or "you don'y feel anything"..i can vaguely recall the words "sensation" and/or "celebration" in the lyrics as well.

sounds like a Garage Rock song, something like The Monks but dirtier and guitar-heavier, a funny songs about incest ( starts like "i made love to my mother and our son was married to my sister" etc.. or something like that) with a lyric that goes "we made 24 children!".anyone?!
