Who has all the chiming clocks?

"Hells Bells" just has one, like Big Ben. I remember another song introduced by lots of different styles of clocks.

By the way, does "Hells Bells" really have 13 chimes? I was fixing something on Wikipedia but didn't have a source and just assumed something.

I think I remember that "Witch Hunt" by Rush had chimes/bells in the beginning of the song.

You are correct, but it is only for a short amount of time at the beginning. Some chimes before the music fades in. :)

Xanadu by Rush, from the Farewell to Kings, has chimes at the beginning of the song.
 
Didn't " Let 'em In" by Wings start ith chimes?
Probably most stations cut it off, but my brain is telling me it's a chime-start.

I'm pretty sure it was a heavy metal song.


For Whom the Bells Toll-Metallica
It starts with the bells very similar to Hells Bells and are heard thoughout the song.

I'm thinking that too. I'll post if I ever hear the clocks.

go to youtube and play it, It definetly has big ben type of clock in the beginning and toward the end of the song.
 
I finally heard it.

It's not metal, but it is rock. I didn't catch any lyrics, but after the clocks finish chiming, there's a sound sort of like a ticking clock or a heartbeat, as if someone is hitting bongo drums or something similar in a regular pattern.
 
Didn't Lightning Strikes, by Lou Christie have a chiming clock, or at least the semblance of the sound of one?

Pink Floyd, "Time," from Dark Side of the Moon. Classic album! On the charts (continuously!) for about 15 years! 8)
I'll check on that. Yes, I'm well aware of the record-setting status of this album.

Hold the phones! It was Rhapsody In The Rain
 
Not a chime, but:

From "The Night Chicago Died" by Paper Lace:

And there was no sound at all
But the clock up on the wall (tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick)
