Please keep up the good work with this game, I love playing it but I do wish may more would join in because I find it so much more competitive when there are lots of players. :)

Thanks to Rowdy, dvd Drifter & Djboney22 you are all good competitors. :)

12:26am
Oops I put the wrong title before for this one. The song is
RO - ID
Roy Orbison - In Dreams (I don't know why I put I Do) :o

I don't generally tend to look at what others have posted earlier, I only look for latest answers to songs I'm trying for.

BTW Debs, you've got too much damn time on your hands. ;)

[Las]

ok. JB -H was credited to you Debs.. i altered the scores.

BTW Debs, you've got too much damn time on your hands. ;) Hey sorry didn't mean to upset anyone - I don't really have that much time I get a bit of time in the mornings but most of the times I've been popping in during the day have been legitimate breaks in work ;)


ok. JB -H was credited to you Debs.. i altered the scores. Thanks Las, btw you are doing an excellent job with this game, I love it and I surprise myself with the ones I know, I usually get the titles first then the artist's name is usually quite easy after that. Hope it was only one point because it was worth only one point on Friday.

Next one:

JC - MRTC
Jimmy Cliff - Many Rivers To Cross (I remember this song from Sunday School again artist's name was hard to solve so I hope I've got the right guy) :o

AND

Is TUB The Utopian Babies? I can't place the song though :o Hope this helps others that are trying to solve it :)

3:57pm
LE - TL
Little Eve or Little Eva - The Loco-Motion (just a long-shot the original artist of a song covered many times including by Kylie Minogue)

Edit 4:02pm Just researched it and I get "Little Eva"

thanks.. although uni is starting soon im not going to be on all the time... but im definately going to keep it running. Las I love this game but I'm so addicted to it I'm beginning to think I could be putting some of the others off which is a shame because I think the game is more enjoyable and more competitive if others join in so do you think I should be handicapped? Here is one way: If I answer a bonus song perhaps I should get only 2 points for it not 5. I also welcome suggestions from others about how I could be handicapped.
Also, when your uni starts again, perhaps we should start a new round, still with a handicap in place for me. What do others think?

Here’s another suggestion:
If someone enters songs that stump everyone, like the current two that Davdster has submitted, perhaps after a week or two if they are still not solved then that person, in this case Davdster, should get the bonus points. In this case, because Davdster is also a player, they would get only 5 points. If it is a non-player who has submitted the songs then they should get 10 points, that way you could also put yourself on the score-board. That is if you (Las) is the one who stumps us you get 10 points for each song if it is still unsolved after a week or two.

Anyway getting back on topic I think I’ve solved one of the new ones

MH - TD
Missy Higgins - Ten Days (10 Days)

7:10am
TI - PGR
The Impressions - People Get Ready

7:29am
TLO - EM
The Loved Ones - Everlovin' Man (got the band's name first this time!)

[Rowdy]

I also welcome suggestions from others about how I could be handicapped.
Is coming around and breaking your kneecaps a little harsh?
Hmmm, maybe so.

I'm a little concerned about getting points for submitting songs that stump people. How obscure can we make it? Who would have a back catalogue of Nana Maskouri albums, much less know her? Who would confess to knowing anything that Whitney Houston sings, therefore leaving the bonus points for the person who posted them? ;)

Is coming around and breaking your kneecaps a little harsh?
Hmmm, maybe so.You can do that if you can find me ;) It wouldnt help though you'd be better off breaking my fingers :p I'm going to try to limit the amount per day that I answer, today I'll probably just concentrate on getting the older songs however I'm going to leave the bonus questions for others to answer because for now I've given up on them but then again I might go back to them later this afternoon if I want a "challenge".

Who would confess to knowing anything that Whitney Houston sings, therefore leaving the bonus points for the person who posted them? ;)I think Las would know if something was too obscure, which is why I posted my guess of The Utopian Babies (for TUB) yesterday. I saw The Utopian Babies in concert about 5 or 6 years ago now, at the Metro and they were pretty good which is why I remembered them. Las has said my guess is wrong. If my guess had been correct I would have said they would be in an "obscure" category.
Thanks for putting forward your suggestions & feedback I really appreciate it. :)
