Subject: The Name Game (60's, 70's & 80's) WINNER: whitewolf

Written By: Doc Brown on 02/16/05 at 2:53 pm

Every song has a name in the title. Not necessarily a first name, but in one case it's not even a proper name, and I'll give an extra point to whoever figures it out! Otherwise, the usual rules apply. I'm making 4 the limit.

1. "...you and me, forever."
Indy - Hall & Oates, 'Sara Smile'

2. "Feel your innocence slipping away,"
Paul - Laura Branigan, 'Gloria'

3. "When the radical preist come and get me released,"
Paul - Paul Simon, 'Me & Julio Down By The Schoolyard'

4. "Love her and she'll bring you luck."
Gaylon - Loggins & Messina, 'Danny's Song'

5. "...join the chosen few."
whitewolf - Huey Lewis & The News, 'Jacob's Ladder'

6. "Ain't that the way love's supposed to be?"
Indy - Rick Springfield, 'Jessie's Girl'

7. "Is it society's fault?"
AB - Don Henley, 'Johnny Can't Read'

8. "It's a clean machine"
Indy - The Beatles, 'Penny Lane'

9. "Now he's got ventilated slacks."
whitewolf - Talking Heads, 'Mr. Jones'

10. "Can't you feel my heart?"*(the trickster!)
Indy - Genesis, 'Mama'

11. "Going down the city sidewalk alone in the crowd."
whitewolf - Heart, 'Dreamboat Annie'

12. "Well, he never traveled heavy."
Lee - Billy Joel, '(Ballad Of) Billy The Kid'

13. "And I can give you lotsa reasons why."
Paul - Beach Boys, 'Help Me Rhonda'

14. "...but I lost my nerve."
whitewolf - Tommy Tutone, 'Jenny(867-5309)'

15. "So put away your makeup."
maddog - The Police, 'Roxanne'

Final Score: Indy - 4, Paul - 3, Gaylon - 1, maddog - 1, whitewolf - 5, Lee -1, AB - 1.

Tiebreaker: "cause I'm right here at home."
whitewolf - Steve Miller Band, 'The Joker'

Well Done, everyone!

Your pal,
Doc

Hey hey hey, 3's the limit, you know better than that!  >:(
I'll give you credit for the first 3, but erase the other 2. OTOH, you did nail the trick line, so you'll be scored with a 4!

And Paul, nice work, you're 3-for-3 as well.  ;D

Your Pal,
Doc

It would help to type in the limit when posting all of your quizzes. Then people wouldn't be confused that the this quiz has no limit.  ::)

If the limit is off, #1 is "Sara Smile" by Hall and Oates. If not, it's first come, first serve (that means I am helping the next person who is posts the song.). :-\\

You're right on #12, Lee. But not #11. Don't forget, every song has a name in the title. Keep trying!
