Hello readers.
I need some help completing this week’s Thursday Thirteen. I compare this task to that of playing CityVille on Facebook, where you reach out to your neighbours for missing pieces in order to complete a building or task. While today I need all of you to assist me.
As you may or may not know, my taste in music is… well… different. I like loud, hard rock, but also Canadian music, female artists and some classical and some jazz (Dr. Andrew Scott, for example – look him up, he’s Canadian too). So it only makes sense that I got stumped when trying to figure out 13 songs that have a count-down in them, or a count-up.
I asked Elliott Hurst of Supernova.com and he gave me a bunch of alternative songs, but do you think I wrote them down?!? Heck no. But Elliott gave me a good idea, that being, to reach out to you guys to help me out.
So please, have a look at the below, and feel free to watch the video on youtube in order to verify.
Let’s begin!
Thirteen Songs that have a countdown in them.

11. Rocket by Def Leppard – 5-4-3-2-1, we’ve got lift-off.
10. Patience by Guns ‘n’ Roses – 1-2 ah, 1-2-3-4 (whistling begins)
