Subject: name that tune-ish...
I was actually going to post this on the 80's board, but the games here are always so far advanced by the time I show up I can never catch up. So I'm starting one. It's a guess-the-song by the lyrics, but the kicker is... it can't have words. At least not within the used quote. Why? 'Cause I need to know the name of this song and I don't have the words. (I do, however have the artist, so I'll know when I see a right answer.)
80's dance song, chorus goes
Bope bope bope bope bope
Bababa bup bope Bababa bup bope Bababa bup bope
...
<dripping water>
Buh bop bup bope. Buh bop bup bope. Buh bop bop bop bop...
Bababa bup bope Bababa bup bope etc.
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Seriously. That's all the voice says. There's a "ba" a "bup" and a "bope". Okay I stink at games. It's by Art of Noise, and it's not "Legs." What the heck is this song? And by the way, I can think of others that could fit on this thread... maybe I'll just play this game by myself. Increase my measly post count. How did it get so low anyway?

Why, Langdon, you're brilliant. I can even tell that you agonized over how many o's go in the "Oooom.''
I'm gonna go with "Oh Yeah" by Yello.

Huh. Right again. Are you cheating or something? Fine. Try this:

That would be "Doot doot" by Fur but I can't do the little oomlaut thingies over the u in Fur.
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
You know, this really isn't a lot of fun anymore. Maybe some people shouldn't place their entire identities in knowing more than others.
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Yeah, well maybe SOME people should keep a sense of humor and not make THEIR entire identities about contolling a situation.
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
You're a stupid poo-head and you forgot the r in "controlling".
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Well at least I don't eat Doritoes in the middle of the night and come back to bed without brushing my teeth!
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Wait. Yes, yes I do.
Where was I?

I was going to say the "Peter Gunn Theme" since I heard it on one of my mixtapes driving home last night...but I can't place the dripping water.. but it does go bababa bup bope, boo boa boa boa boa....or something like that.
OK, for our sake let's just say I got it right. Here's mine:
a-reet-dee-deet deet, a-reet deet deet....
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
I don't know Langdon.....but I am Always here for you ;) and you are not alone!
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
I tried to post on this thread twice last night, but neither of Lang's dual personalities caught it, so I had to delete.... ;D
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
First of all, I want to thank you for the support and love you've shown me during my "episode". I'm back on my meds, they've adjusted the dosage and I'm fine, thanks. And Zella, I was vaguely remember being so enraged at myself that I wouldn't have noticed an earthquake! Sorry. But again, thank you.

Oh bugger bugger bugger bugger! I know that song! The guy who teaches arobics while I'm on the treadmill uses it in his class! Shoot shoot shoot shoot shoot. Those words come during a sort of stop in the music, right?
I really shouldn't get too excited about this, we all know what happened last time...

Hold down on the "Alt" key and then punch in "0252" on the keypad (NOT the keyboard). This is what comes out: ü.
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Soooooo pretty... ;D
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Testing
ü...woohoo it worked **happy dance**that is so cool. ;D
Anyway, glad you are better, Langdon. :D
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
I would like to join you, Langdon. But I'm afraid you would catch my cold. So I can't share (as some people call spreading disease.) ;)
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
^ Wow! There are people actually taking this thread seriously....! :) ;D
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Okay, I have the answer which I shall spill 'cause I have another one. It's "Beat Box" by Art of Noise.
Now, Tarzan Boy, think of one of "our" anthems, and tell me...
Bop bopbop
Bop
Bop bopbop
Bop
Bop bopbop
(Its' the same in the whole wide world)

I'll have you know, this started in all sincerity. But you know how I get when I see something sparkly. Like Lester said... (and thank goodness, eh?)
Modified 'cause Fridays are spelling freebies. (Apparently, so is every day for me.)

Can Fridays be typo freebies, too? Please? How about typo freebies month.... ::)

That's a dead giveaway. That must be Ministry's "Everyday Is Halloween." I have that on a New Wave comp.

And Don, I'm trying but I'm coming up with nothing... I haven't given up yet, though.
Zella, life is a freebie, should we so choose. ;D

Is it "Da Da Da (I Love You You Don't Love Me)" by Trio ???
There's a similar one that just popped into mind:
"... dododo dadada..."
... and life is a big bash in which I am the uninvited crasher...

It's not that…think 1970's…
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
"Gonna Fly Now?"
And TB, is your phrase "meaningless" according to it's vocalizer?
Subject: Re: name that tune-ish...
Didn't I do a quiz similar to this one? ???

I am stumped by Crazydon's song. The only other one I can think of is the instrumental part of Led Zep's "Fool In The Rain." You know, "... thun thun thunthun thun-thun..." I love that song!

It's from the 1970's. If you've ever watched "Beavis & Butt-Head," you'll get it.

Got it! It's Deep Purple's "Smoke On The Water"!

Ok, the answer was "Magic Carpet Ride" by Mighty Dub Katz (aka Fatboy Slim, Pizzaman, Norman Cook, the man of 1,000 aliases...)
Since chris didn't give up one to guess at, and I'm at home today, I'll pick one out of my library:
baybeebubaaay beebeebubaby....
(Hints: Freestyle track. Hairspray likes this song. And for you SoCal folk, something they might've played on Power 106 FM back in '88...)
