Can anyone think of a reasonably well-known pop song whose title has a word that rhymes with 'action'?  I have a concept I was trying to work on using 'Satisfaction' by the Stones, but I found the structure of that song too difficult to work with.

Paul Revere and the Raiders had a hit called "Too Much Talk, and Not Enough Action" - but that doesn't rhyme with action, it is action.

Madonna had a song called "Physical Attraction".

The Cure had a song called "Strange Attraction".

Did you try the "Satisfaction" cover by Britney Spears?  ;)

Thanks for the ideas, though I don't know any of those songs...

Doofus.  :P

The correct title is '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction'. Hey, after number of times I was told that it's '...Baby One More Time'...

I just made a whole list of songs when the library computers crashed, so I'll just skim off tunes that you'd be more likely to know:
Meat Loaf  'A Piece of the Action'
Tom Jones 'Satisfaction'
Jon Bon Jovi 'All Talk No Action'

How about "-ackson" instead of "-action"

Strange the kind of people you make friends with, isn't it?  :)

Sweet did a song called Action on the same album as Fox On The Run:

And a NWOBHM band (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) called Raven did a cover of it in the 80s, but I guess the original would be a better choice for an Amiright crowd.

What about Chain Reaction - Diana Ross

Wow guys, thanks for digging up all these suggestions, but I don't know any of them. :-\\

Good thought, though, Johnny D, on the imperfect rhyme slant -- they've saved my keister more times than you can imagine.

Psychotic Reaction-the Count 5

Wow guys, thanks for digging up all these suggestions, but I don't know any of them. :-\\


Might I suggest iTunes or one of the other sites where you can preview and download one of these songs? Don't let not knowing them stop you! (In other words, I want to see the parody!)

Thanks for the idea -- to me, though, it's no fun to write or read a parody to a song I don't know.  Maybe the lesson in all this is for me to just suck it up and deal with 'Satisfaction'.  Maybe I'll learn something.
