Can you match a song title to a game situation you have experienced?

e.g. After losing my General in CK  I thought "Big yellow taxi".
e.g. After losing a vital assault in AK  "Ballroom blitz".
e.g. Pirate land raids. "I still have not found what I am looking for".


My references are often to very old pop music but that is all i know.

Can't think of any song titles...but famous quotes from gfilm or TV often appear around our table

"I think I've gone wrong again,dad" Dick Emery - when you realise your deployment is all wrong and you're about to get steamroller down one flank.

"I shant be blamed!" from The Charge of the Light Brigade - when you're playing as a pair and the plan has gone wrong

"The best cavalry in Europe and the worst led" Waterloo - you've just lost all of your cavalry on the flank in a game of Regiment of Foote


"He's counting your rifles with the lives of his warriors" Zulu - a good one after a pointless frontal assault.


Actually...song titles

Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now - when youve lost Piggy chase

All Shook Up - after losing a Melee you thought you definitely  win
