I'll have to think about it and figure something out. Like only if you're completely sure or something. I'll have a think, but don't tell Sprinkles I've been thinking Better stop dreaming of the quiet life - 'cos it's the one we'll never know

Yes it is Right everyone the new and revised rules. I thought them up at work to keep my mind occupied. 1. If you're sure you're right with your guess then you can post the next lyrics straight away. If you're unsure then don't post any lyrics and the previous poster will know that you're unsure and so can tell you if you got it right or not. 2. Still no googling the lyrics. Though I suppose if you got an idea for the answer, you could google the lyrics of the song you think it is so that you could follow rule 1. But no googling the two lines posted, please! 3. If you've posted the current lyrics and no one seems to have got it then feel free to post a clue. Keep clues as posts in the thread so that everyone can see them so that it's fair. 4. If you're guessing and you recognise the song but can't quite remember it feel free to ask for a clue 5. Have fun! Love from Elo x

Very good idea with the new rules Elo. But why can't we tell sprinkles you have been thinking?
So, on with the game.

Ooh I have no idea on this one, someone else can play.
Because I said I was giving up thinking of ideas and just working for my exams. And she said I shouldn't be wasting my brain power thinking of ideas, and I agreed. So *shush*! I was at work, in my defence, I had to do something.

As requested by Elo...a clue or two.
Clue 1...the band. Think britpop (look it up on Wiki there is an article)
Clue 2...the song. Have a nice hot drink as you think about it.
*evil laughter at managing to confuse Elo*

I know I know this... and I know it must be Neil Sedaka... let me think about it while I send a couple emails. Edit: Okay, I sang the lyrics and finally got to the chorus of... Happy Birthday Sweet 16 and per Elo's rules, I googled those lyrics and TADA I am right! And now for a song no one will know, but I love... I was justified when I was five Raising cane, I spit in your eye

Clue? It's been bugging me all day. I feel like I recognise the top line for some reason. But then I started to sing 'It was a very good year', which is not what your song is.

Sorry ladies, I was going to post this earlier but then had to run. Artist: He's not too old to (Crocodile) Rock... Song: No matter what, everytime I kiss Adam, his damn dog, "elle" (who is a girl) shows up and I think the title... Completely confused?

Post by jayejaye on Apr 29, 2008 1:56:26 GMT -5
I think I have it :-)
Crocodile Rock is Elton John, and thinking about the second clue for a while....
The Bitch is Back - Elton John?

My favorite Elton John song! Well done, Jaye!

Ooh ooh! RHCP... *sings song to self* Zephyr song? Where's my ipod... Red Hot Chili Peppers - Zephyr Song Jaye, do you remember our long ABC of songs of RHCP on The Hideaway? And since I am sure and singing along to it the next lyrics are: And I love you endlessly, Darling don't you see, I'm not satisfiedRight, I'm hoping someone does get it, but I've never heard anyone else mention them, hmm. They are my favourite band, though

Elo how could I forget... :-)
back to the game, I knew it was The Killers but I had to listen my way through their songs until
Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf - The Killers
Right, a harder one this time.

Although I have no idea at all, can we have a clue?
|

Post by jayejaye on Apr 30, 2008 14:31:24 GMT -5
A clue...now let me think?
It's taken me ages to think of a clue but here goes...
1. You may have seen the bands singer recently, on TV or in reality... (well Elo might have)
2. Perhaps Dana and Fox can help you...
This might be a bit too hard so the second clue is a really big one, I'm not even sure if the band is known in America now I think about it.

Well, it took a lot of digging. But I do like Catatonia, I will have to get this song.
It is Catatonia - Mulder and Scully, isn't it?

Okay, two clues if I can think of one for the song.
Band: Think britpop, think old indie, think Birmingham.
The song... Gahh. I don't know? Ooh a clue, think emails. Or look at them. You might find some more lines in them...

Thank you, I had no idea what to do for a clue, then I remembered my tag line is some of the lyrics for the right song, which was convenient. Yes you are right.
