Something by Led Zeppelin?

There was a band in Basingstoke called Strontium Dog (presumably after 2000AD).

The Sisters Of Mercy's "Detonation Boulevard" mentions gasoline and "Lucretia, My reflection" mentions methedrine.

I'm surprised no-one mentioned "Gold" by Spandau Ballet :)

Whereas Gold by the Sugarcubes is another matter entirely.

And I'll just mention Vitamin C by Can.

I think this has been posted somewhere on this forum before, anyway:

YouTube - The World of Chemistry

Not quite in the spirit of the thread (the video is about chemistry but the music isn't), but well worth a look!
