I'm looking for songs that have a countdown or relate to countdowns - the only one I can think of is 'The final countdown'. Can anyone think of anymore?

Probably not what you are looking for but the start to Thunderbirds came into my head!

For some reason when I read this question the first thing that popped into my head was that song (one hit wonder) by Peter Schilling from the 80's - "Major Tom (Coming Home)" He repeats the countdown of "4, 3, 2, 1" throughout the song.
The song was supposed to be a sort of continuation of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" - which, now that I think of it also has a countdown in it.
Do you remember either of these or am I really dating myself!? In any case, hope this helps! :)

"Instant Replay" by Dan Hartman has a countdown at the beginning, from 10 to 1

"Countdown to Extinction" - Megadeth.
"And Some You Lose" - One Minute Silence, this one starts with a digitised voice saying "This place will self-destruct in 5 seconds..." then it counts down til the band kicks in!

"supernaut", a 1000 homo dj's cover of the black sabbath song starts off with a countdown after art linklater's diatribe on 60's hippy lsd usage.
"countdown" by the yeah yeah yeahs.
that's all i can think off the top o' my head.

International Rescue = Fuzzbox. One of the singers shouts out "5.4.3.2.1 Thunderbirds are go!!!" I think it was in 1986
123 = Gloria estafan

No idea who its by but there is one that goes 5,4,3,2,1, it was like a seventies, early eighties song. Not any good but it has the countdown criteria you are loking for!
