name the songcan anybody help? the only lyrics i know of this song are "no theyll never take me alive" any ideas? it was in the early 80s
A quick search on Yahoo found a song called [B]The Alien[/B] by former Guns N' Roses member Slash. It was released in 2000 and not the early 80s though.

What was the last Specci Game released commercially?Well what was it? Street Fighter 2? I'm not including Sam Coupe or anyother clone, just a bog standard 128k
[url]www.cronosoft.co.uk[/url] anyone? Well, they might not be fully commercial, but they're in the same spirit as the commercial releases of the early 80s and real media too.
