Ooh! 80s tune! Is that Let the Music Play? I can hear it but can't remember the artist.

* It's not surprising, since I think it was a one hit wonder.

1. Let the Music Play by _._._._._._._

It just occurred to me: in the 90s, I used to work with someone named Shannon. This came up a couple of times.

* yup that was the group. Care to take a round?

 

[kbomb106]

Ok.

1.
You're in an all-girl band
Your futon's second hand
Your parents understand, but you don't care
I have a job in a shop
I'm an undercover cop
I make sure the customers aren't thieves

2.
I want to love somebody
I hear you need somebody to love
Oh I want to love somebody
I hear you're looking for someone to love

3.
I . . . Who took the money?
Who took the money away?
I . . . It's always showtime
Here at the edge of the stage
I, I, I, wake up and wonder
What was the place, what was the name?
We wanna wait, but here we go again...

Happy guessing!

 

[Pirateking]

No ideas on that one.

Somebody to Love - Jefferson Airplane?

No sir.

1.
Last night we slept on the lawn
You woke up and I was gone
Back to the dream I dream to leave
My life with her is a bore
A worn-out metaphor
No more surprises up its sleeve

2.
I didn't know nobody
and then I saw you coming my way
Oh I didn't know nobody
and then I saw you coming my way

(and since the 2nd verse doesn't say much, I'll give the bridge, too)

'Cause you got a good thing going baby
You only need somebody to love
Oh you got a good thing going
You're only looking for someone to love

3.
I . . . takes over slowly
But doesn't last very long
I . . . no need to worry
Evr'ything's under control
O - U - T But no hard feelings
What do you know? Take you away
We're being taken for a ride again

Bonus hints (since nobody seems to recognize these):
1. May not be a popular song, but it is a semi-popular band, usually popular with the teen crowd - or so I found out when I saw them. Big hint for red: they're Canadian, eh.
2. Certainly not the most popular artist ever, but he had a couple of hits. This song was popular enough to have a video (an anime video, at that), and I remember it well. Early to mid 90s, as I recall.
3. This band was wildly popular for a while. This song had a video from a very popular full-length concert video. I own it on DVD and it's one of my favorites. Alas, the band is no longer together.

1.
----------- ---------- by --------- ------

2.
Girlfriend by ------- -----

3.
---------- -- ------ by ------- -----

That "Girl Friend" song is a great little diddy. Very catchy melody, nice guitar work, pretty hard rockin' - can't remember the name of the dood that sings it though... I think the band name is his name if I recall...

Give me a "C" please!

Alas, no C in any of the 3.

Those hints are very intriguing...

But I still need more letters... How about a "G" ...and the vowel of your choice please?

1.
A--e--a---e G------e-d by -a-e-a-ed -ad-e-

2.
Girlfriend by -a---e- --ee-

3.
G------e-d -- -e--e- by -a----g -ead-

I'll give you the vowel that should help the most.
