Sounds Familiar 2

Postby Frank_Chickens » Sat Feb 19, 2005 10:49 pm

A lot easier this time, so easy there's a chance that kimiii might even score 50! [;)]

Though I can't wait to read her reaction to 3 & 25! [:D]
As usual there's 25 intros, I'm after the artist and the song title.

** FOR ANSWER 20, INSTEAD OF THE SONG TITLE PUT THE NAME OF THE LP **

The MP3 can be found here:

The game finishes at 11pm GMT Sunday 27th. Good luck!

Oh dear...
On the previous SF I didn't bother to send in my answers, because I knew only 6 pairs.

This time, I'm not going to bother either. I got THREE (3) pairs on first listen (2,3 and 19) and there isn't much hope to get any others.

Well, bette

my goodness,
this one's freakin' hard!
I like a challenge, though, so I'll try again. I know only 6 pairs ( 24 pts. ?) Ouch!

The last track is tricky. The compilation cd where it is found on actually displays the name of the 7" rather than the title of the track, which I think is what she yelled out at the end of the song.

It would be interesting to see how many people will

For a mere mortal like me, it's just a killer...

Rule of thumb: Score for Sounds Familiar = (Score for NTT / 3,5)

Ouch.

Considering I think I'm hip even into the deep new wave cuts of the 80's, this stumped me. I think I hit 8 pairs...and I had much higher expectations!
