completely ripped off from BBC Radio 1 Dj Chris Moyles' show, this game involves linking two songs by various dubious facts and wordplay and suchlike. To show some examples I will borrow heavily from here:

Supergrass Richard III - Supergrass have now made a Best Of album and in that respect share something in common with Queen - Queen Latifah is now an actress and recently starred in a film alongside Steve Martin - Steve Martin’s filmography includes lead roles in Father Of The Bride, The Man With Two Brains and The Three Amigos - Amigos is a Spanish word meaning friends - Friends the TV series is to spawn a Joey based spin off series entitled Joey - A joey is a type of baby kangaroo - Baby kangaroos are carried around in their mothers pouch - The word “pouch” shares many of the same letters as the word “poach”, which is something that concerns chefs and gamekeepers - Gamekeepers tend to be big fans of wax jackets - Jackets can also be found on potatoes - Potatoes are grown across much of the UK, including England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland - Scotland is the birthplace of Lulu - and Lulu featured on Take That’s 1993 hit single Relight My Fire - Which links us to Take That and Lulu and Relight My Fire

Take That feat Lulu Relight My Fire - “Relight my fire” is what an annoyed barbecuer might say if some idiot had just spilt water all over his briquettes - Briquettes rhymes with crickets, which make a noise by rubbing their little insect legs together - If human legs rub together it tends to result in chafing - Chafing can be alleviated with the help of talcom powder - Talcom powder is white and therefore not a great thing to have in your hand luggage - “Luggage” is one of the few words in the English language that contain’s three G’s - Three G’s is what you might be pulling if you were an astronaut experiencing re entry - Re entry is prohibited in many nightclubs unless you have a stamp on your hand - Hand rhymes with rand, which is the currency of South Africa - South Africa are to host the World Cup after Germany - Germany is the birthplace of Boris Becker - Boris Becker recently got caught with his trousers down in the broom cupboard of the appropriately named “Nobu” restaurant - Nobu is a big favourite with celebs such as Ant and Dec, Kirsty Gallacher, The Chemical Brothers and Noel Gallagher - Which links us predictably to a record which features The Chemical Brothers and Noel Gallagher, it is the Chemical Brothers and Setting Sun

I don't expect anything as long as those though, but we start with:

Chemical Brothers and Setting Sun :)

Oh yes! I just love to revive those old threads!

Chemical Brothers - Setting sun The sun sets in the west. If you travel westward, you also go west. Go West consists of Peter Cox and Richard Drummie. Leave the r out and you're stuck with a dummie. Dummies are used in crash tests, which also require a car. Cars come in different sizes, shapes and colours. Hey, there's a red car in the fountain. Some fountains are known to be pale, which brings us to: Pale Fountains - Thank you. (LOL)

What are we looking for, Jim?

I do not find Lulu tedious

*sighs* I don't think Jim even remembers STARTING this thread...

Why did I ever bother to revive this one..? :-\\

It looks too complicated for me

It looks too complicated for me


Too complicated for ANYONE, I guess.. :D

Pale Fountains - Thank you Sorry, Faulty, but I could not find any links with articles about that album. Maybe you should try another album that non-Euros are familiar with, like Points on a Curve by Wang Chung ;D

I am still confused.

No wonder! I think everybody's confused nowadays because of the Blah-ness of things... ???

So what is the point in all this? :-\\

You got a point there...

It is rude to point!

It is rude to point!


...Point taken. :-[

If it's so rude to point, then Uncle Sam must be the rudest guy of all. ;)

I agree with you on that point.  :D

Maybe we should call this "The Pointing Thread" and move it to PPP. ;)

Now that is a good point.

Then again, one would have to point out the way to the thread. :D

It's not an album, it's an old fashioned 7" single:
