Similarly Titled Songs
Some websites erroneously claim the song has earlier been recorded by The Pretty Things in 1964; in fact, that "Don't Bring Me Down" was a different song, written by Johnnie Dee, that was a Top 10 hit in the UK.
There also are two subsequent songs by the same title: the pop hit "Don't Bring Me Down" by Electric Light Orchestra in 1979, and an R&B/dance hit "Don't Bring Me Down" by Spirits in 1995.

Famous quotes containing the words similarly and/or songs:
“Every art and every inquiry, and similarly every action and choice, is thought to aim at some good; and for this reason the good has rightly been declared to be that at which all things aim.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
“O women, kneeling by your altar-rails long hence,
When songs I wove for my beloved hide the prayer,
And smoke from this dead heart drifts through the violet air
And covers away the smoke of myrrh and frankincense;
Bend down and pray for all that sin I wove in song....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
