Out here I spoke about attempted humor in graphical abstracts of Angewandte. The abstract often begins with a few words aiming to create some hilarity.
I have no idea whether Jerry Lee Lewis could laugh about it (or Otis Blackwell and Jack Hammer).
It seems to be a hype to use song titles (or derivatives) for this. Many other songs can be identified.
Chubby Checker:
Let's twist again
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704465)
The Beatles of course:
You say you want a resolution
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704021)
All together now
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200703877)
Queen:
Who wants to live forever?
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704137)
Culture Club:
Chemical chameleon
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704520)
Pete Seeger (and of course The Byrds):
Turn, turn, turn
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704602)
Yeah I know it's from Ecclesiastes 3, verses 1–8.
Wilbert Harrison (or Brian Ferry or Bob Dylan)
Let's stick together
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704654)
Maybe in the future musicians will be rated according to the amount of songs that have been used by Angewandte. The Beatles are number 1 right now.
