I hate Name That Song. Kathie Lee Gifford was the La La Girl.

That makes the Hype! way better... you don't have to listen to someone "la la" at you.

1. Now the king told the boogie men
You have to let that raga drop
The oil down the desert way
Has been shakin' to the top
The sheik he drove his Cadillac
He went a-cruisin' down the ville
The muezzin was a' standing
On the radiator grille


2. *******, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner


3. Er war ein Punker
Und er lebte in der großen Stadt
Es war Wien, war Vienna
Wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden denn er trank
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
Und jede rief:
Come on and **** ** *******

Did I scare you all?

Rock the Casbah by the Clash?

One Night in Bangkok by (besides the cast of Chess) Murray Head and later remade by that chick named Robey, who outside of singing this song, I only knew from Friday the 13th, the Series.

Theme: Foreign places?

I don't know any German, so this is a complete stab in the dark, but Rock Me Amadeus by Falco?

Way to go, kbomb! A perfect sweep! There was a secondary theme, but it wasn't necessary to get that, unless you know the other special thing about those songs. Red will have to give you your prize--my computer is currently pitching fits over just working at times. But excellent job!!

 

[redmarvel]

I know you like the ladies... so I hope this one impresses you:

Of course you realize this means you ought to give us the list for the next round...

Thanks. I don't get what Rock Me Amadeus has to do with foreign places. It mentions Vienna, so maybe that's what you were going for? Tell us the 2nd theme. I'm curious. Was it that they were all 80s one hit wonders? The Clash had a couple of well known tunes, and while After the Fire got the credit for it, IIRC, Der Kommissar was a Falco tune. I guess I just proved my guess wrong.

Give me a while. I'm trying to think of a theme.

Maybe your theme could be "obscure Peruvian show tunes."

I'll one-up you and pick all instrumentals.

HA! Yeah, then you could post them something like this:

"Lada hummm a-dodo DEEE dum tootley doooo da..."

Uh....YYZ?

Actually, I'm headed out to work, so if anyone wants to take this round, go nuts. I'll try to come up with something later.

1. Hot town, ...
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

2. Say you don't know me, or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night

3. It's hot here at night, lonely, black and quiet
On a hot summer night
Don't be afraid of the world we made
On a hot summer night
'Cause when a long-legged lovely walks by
Yeah you can see the look in her eye
Then you know that it's

#1 Summer in the City - The Lovin' Spoonful
#2 We built this City - Starship
#3 Hot in the City - Billy Idol

Theme - City

Somehow, I feel my age is really apparent on this one.
