Freddy Kreuger (song)

"Freddy Kreuger" [sic] is the fifth single by Surrey-based rock band Reuben, and the second single taken from their debut album Racecar Is Racecar Backwards. The title refers to Freddy Krueger, the horror protagonist of the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, but is misspelled. It was released in June 2004, and was the first release on XtraMile/Sony, whom the band had at last signed a proper record deal with. The single was released on CD and 7" vinyl format, and reached #53 in the UK charts. It also made the #1 spot on the Chain With No Name independent chart, and Zane Lowe made it his Radio 1 single of the week. It was Reuben's first track to be playlisted on XFM and their first track to be played on Mary Anne Hobbs’ Rock Show. It was also played on Virgin Radio sporadically.

gollark: To be fair, it could be esolang code *disguised* as bad C.
gollark: - no # before the preprocessor directive- no main function or anything, although that may be deliberate- `void`, but does `return`- `18h` is hopefully not a valid integer literal- `me`, `tolife`, `willpower` and `time` are never actually declared
gollark: Yes, that is very bad code.
gollark: The official docs are like apioforms then; async IO is just trendier.
gollark: Imagine using threads instead of utter asynchronicity.
