the similarities are blatant and disappointing. who is this stealing a U2 classic?' Then the DJ came on and gave the name of the song and the year it was released now I've read the reviews here and I have to say, BTBS doesn't just sound 'something' like the Nugent song. But as I listenened, I realized the lyrics were different and then thought, 'Oh!. Because U2 is one of my favourite bands, my first thought was 'Oh, who's this covering Bullet The Blue Sky?'. Jim from Toronto, On(28/05/08) I just heard Ted Nugent's 'Stranglehold' for the first time ever, but only from halfway through on the radio so I wasn't sure who was singing or when the song was released.

BTBS is still a great song no matter the riff. Those of you that think that U2 ripped of Ted Nugent should listen to Savoy Brown's "Hellbound Train".

Well, the God I believe in isn't short of cash, mister Hillstreet Blues and a preacher on the Old Time Gospel Hour Her lover's turning off, turning on the televisionĪnd I can't tell the difference between ABC News Outside it's America, outside it's AmericaĪnd in the next room I hear a woman scream out We take the key and slowly unlock the door Through the valleys and the quiet city streets Lapping them down one hundred, two hundredĪcross the mud huts where the children sleep In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
