OK, on the drive home the DJ plays BOC's "Fear the Reaper" and then plays "And She Was" by the talking heads back to back and I'm thinking, "surely this can't be coincidence, two songs in a row that feature the cowbell? How can it be? Is this really the end of times like some nuts keep preaching?" I'm pretty sure it is but I just gotta have more cowbell!
Anyways, besides those two kick ass cowbell songs, what other songs feature more cowbell?

laid, most assuredly, but be prepared for :
* six-digited or toed offspring
* offspring born sans spine
* honorary membership in the "Klan"

and if it doesn't work out with the cousin, there's always weddings and family reunions to scout out new dates :)

has anyone ever seen the episode of snl where they parodied "don't fear the reaper"- the producer wanted more cowbell? :)

I rarely missed SNL in its heyday. Too funny! Christopher Walken and Will Ferrel if I recall?

odd thing
while "the reaper" is the "more cowbell" song, the actual song has no cowbell. whatsoever.
never did (woodblock and washboard)
oddly enough, "and she was" features also features a woodblock,not a cowbell
your entire premise is shot
mississippi queen? now that should have been the "more cowbell" song, it has obnoxious amounts

which probably explains why mountain was a one-hit wonder... didn't the stones' "honky-tonk woman" open with cowbell?

Still, they make a cowbell sound, Fear the Reaper really sounds like cowbell

A person once told me that he went to see the Rapture and yelled "more cowbell" at the top of his lungs after they played House of Jealous Lovers, but nobody responded...
