Subject: Famous Intros - complete

Written By: philbo_baggins on 06/20/02 at 07:32 a.m.

Well that wraps this one up - hey, that must have been way too easy :-) Well done everybody

I don't know if this'll work properly, but... a while ago, I set a general knowledge quiz, one round of which was introductions to famous songs - you know, the first few seconds.  It seemed somehow appropriate to this forum to stick them on the website and give you guys a throw...

Enjoy:

Ah, you might need to download them and run locally - that works from where I am (even though I'm not connected through my own ISP here)

Good luck

...yes, it's a tough one (it's the hardest one - but also the one which started the whole idea off): unfortunately, not the Beach Boys.

I can't get into any of these. I'm at the office, and they won't allow audio. So they've blocked it. Sorry guys. :(

Sorry to hear about that, JC. Maybe, if we ask nicely, Phil will give us some more at a later, better time.
