Ive just downloaded this song off of Kazaa, and it mentionned that it was a FB song.... but upon listening it doesn't sound anything like Frank. Is this a Stan Ridgeway song?

Who's the man that won't cop out when there's danger all about?

as someone else pointed out it's wall of voodoo... i downloaded it too a couple of years back, as it was labelled as a frank black song, took a little while to find out who it really was by...

"Fish Heads" constantly gets misattributed to TMBG, for some reason.

You know, I wish I was in Tijuana, eating barbecued iguana.

Yes, Stuart, it is Stan Ridgway--he fronted Wall of Voodoo.

Anybody remember the video for Mexican Radio where Stan's beslimed head emerges from a large pot of beans?

I love it when files are mislabeled. Actually, no, I hate it. I once thought I was getting Weezer covering Led Zeppelin's Heartbreaker, and it turned out to be Say It Ain't So (since they say heartbreaker in ths song). I spent all that time downloading a song I already goddamn had. Then again, it might've been frighteningly bad to hear Weezer cover Zep.

i dled a FB song once, labeled as mexican radio, but it turned out to be "sunday sunny mill valley groove day"(live) mislabeled. maybe because in the intro frank says something about a king of tex mex.

Haha, I can just imagine it's going to become one of those common bits of misinformation caused by downloading songs, just like people thought that both Ween and Phish did a live cover of Gin and Juice when it was in fact a band called the Gourds. So now you'll say to people, "Heard of Frank Black?" and they'll say, "Oh yeah, that Mexican Radio song."

There was an eighties song called "Mexican Radio," and it was by a band called Wall of Voodoo. Is that what you're thinking of? I don't think Frank ever played that song, or any other by that name.
