Even though I said it, I have to ask: who?!?

Gowan also sang "Criminal Mind" and "Strange Animal". Those you might remember. Check out www.gowan.org for more details. He recently replaced the lead singer for STYX.

How the game is played:
One verse of the lyrics for 3 different songs are given, all 3 songs share a common theme and the theme is usually one of the words in the name of the title or artist.

If someone gets both the song title and the artist they get ** (2 points). The theme counts as 1 point. If someone "sweeps" the board (get's all 3 songs and artists) they get 7 points and an Animated Gif. Bonus points may be earned if a song was sung by more than 1 group or artist and the others are named.

If no one gets one of the songs from the first verse than approximatly every hour a new verse will be posted.

If there are no verses left then a hangman style board is put up with the letters from the song title and artist scrambled below.

If there are still no guesses then the hangman board gets filled in one letter at a time (i.e. all the A's are put into place).

Are we confused yet? If so, check back over the previous games.

1. Early in the morning, I'm still in bed
She comes to me with sweet affection
Wakes me with kisses, "Hello sleepyhead."
Gets me moving in the right direction
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everything I do I'm doing better

2. We were as one babe for a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I'm letting you fly
'Cause I know in my heart
Our love will never die

3. The night we met I knew I needed you so
and if I had the chance I'd never let you go.
So won't you say you love me,
I'll make you so proud of me.
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go.

 

[redmarvel]

1. Later in the evening, it's been a busy day
She lays her head upon my weary shoulder
Listen to her laughing, snuggle up and say
Now I'm with you _._._._, the loneliness is over
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everything I do I'm _._._._._ better

2. You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy, don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling, 'cause you'll _._._._._._ - _._ - _._ - _._._._
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way, you're never gonna shake me
Oh darling, 'cause you'll _._._._._._ - _._ - _._ - _._._._

3. So won't you, please,
Be my, _._ - _._ - _._._._
be my little _._._._
My one and only, baby
Say you'll be my darlin',
Be my, _._ - _._ - _._._._
_._ - _._ - _._._._ now.
My one and only, _._._._
Wha-oh-oh-oh.

Thanks. It's not quite in the spirit of "name that song," but since nobody was guessing it right anyway....

Are you moving to more obscure music, or are you just posting songs I've never heard?

I honestly didn't think these were obscure.

1 of these artists was really big in the 80's.

The other was big in the 90's.

The third was prior to the 80's and while I recognized their name immediatly they were never "super" stars.

I was good this time, honest, I stuck to American groups/artists.

You know what, though? There's no need to stick to American artists; the US produces a whole bunch of crap (along with a bunch of good stuff, too). It's cool; go international (well, I suppose you already have, posting American songs). Broaden your horizons. The Brits make a bunch of good music...and I guess some Canadian bands, too.

Personally, I love Falco (Austrian) and Nena (German). Hubby is a big AC/DC fan (also German). He also likes Mötley Crüe (and with umlauts like that they're probably a German band too).

Yes! * Thanks for finishing off the set.

Here's a new set to puzzle through:

1. Your pop caught you smoking and he said no way
That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag

2. I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a goon
But I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room

3. Redcoats in the village
There's fighting in the streets
The Indians and the mountain men, well
They are talking when they meetThe king has said he's gonna put a tax on tea
And that's the reason you all Americans drink coffee

Fight For Your Right (to Party) by the Beastie Boys.

Incidentally, that's the 2nd verse, not the first.

 

[redmarvel]

kbomb ** figured people would get it in any case.

(First verse of song 2, second verse of song 3)

2. I feel it in my leg,
I feel it in my shoe
Tell me pretty baby
If you think you feel it too
...
...
Send to the store
And let's buy some more
And ... tonight

3. Fire in the mountains, flames upon the heath
And the president spits out the news
He's biting on wooden teeth
The children of the colonies
Got a different tale to tell
I'm going down to the city
Tell my folks I'm doing well

I'm guessing that we need to start anew since we don't know if the last one was solved. So here we go!!

1
Here it is the groove slightly transformed
just a bit of a break from the norm
just a little somethin' to break the monotony
of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
a little bit out of control it's cool to dance
but what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
give me a soft subtle mix
and if ain't broke then don't try to fix it
and think of the summers of the past
adjust the base and let the alpine blast
pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
and put your car on cruise and lay back cause this is _________


2
When winter hush turns summer pink
In half the time it takes to blink
But it all depends on what'choo think
___ ___ ____ ___ ______
When all you think of all day long
Is a pretty face inside a song
With a thought like that you can't go wrong
____ ___ ____ ___ ______
Oh yeah... (Do you know what everybody's talkin' 'bout)
Some girls are all about it
Some girls they love to let it fly
Some girls can't live without it
Some girls are born to make you cry

3
Where is the sun,
The sun that used to shine on me?
Where has it gone
Or is it just a memory?

I looked through the window,
Staring at the sky,
Waiting for a moment
That always passed me by.
