and what song was this?
a more tricky one. Was played on Friday night rock show by Tommy Vance so must be going back over ten years.
don't recall much about the song but the chorus contained the line "and he changed his name to Tony Iommi". Wasn't
particualrly loud nor by anyone famous or else I wold have remembered, probably.
.... ooh, google is good, seems to be Furnaceface - The Ballad Of Richard Iommi ; never heard of them

There you go - typed "lyrics and he changed his name to Tony Iommi" (corrected spelling  ) into Google:
Furnaceface Lyrics
"Furnaceface The Ballad Of Richard Iommi"
CHORUS:
He believed, he believed, he believed he was the son of Tony
=========================================================
He changed his name, he changed his name, he changed his name to Iommi
One day Richard and his best friend were down in the basement.
Richard was cutting pictures of Tony Iommi out of old Creem magazines
and pasting them in a huge collage on his wall. His friend was
playing with the tuner on Richard's stereo when suddenly they
both heard something that would change their lives. Lee Aaron
was coming to their town. For those of you who don't know, Lee
Aaron is the very talented and lovely Canadian rock singer who's
also known as the Metal Queen. Richard and his friend loved Lee
Aaron second only to Tony Iommi. Richard knew he had to somehow
meet Lee Aaron and tell her the secret of his lineage.
He believed, he believed, he believed he was the son of Tony
He went to see, he went to see, he went to see the Metal Queen
On the day of the show, Richard was so excited he could barely
move. In the afternoon he went down to the concert hall early
in hopes of catching a glimpse of her. Suddenly, there she was.
Everything in the world faded away, and before he knew it he
was telling her about the double-neck guitar, the 72-piece drum
kit, and why he changed his name. The Metal Queen listened, and
in a single sentence brought his entire world crashing down!
"Like, why don't you sell that poo and get a life?"
He believed, he believed, he believed he was the son of Tony
=========================================================

^^^^^ hmmmm, that me me looks pretty foolish - I didn't bother to google as a) I tought maybe I rememberered it wrong and b) it would be too
obscure, but just goes to show how much info., most of it totally useless, is out there on the web. 
I wonder if I can find out the length of 1100, 1300 and 1600 crossflow conrods

google alway works when in search of a song title by entering a sentence from the lyrics. never failed me, and have litteraly done hundreds of songs
like this at work.
