    Favourite tracks of all time

    with a twist.

    The twist is, you have to send in the name of your favourite track (and artist) of all time into me, by clacks. Once I have them, I will post the tracks, and you will have to guess who selected that track. Simple. non?

    If you can't decide, just pick one of your faves.

    If you post in here once you've sent, then when 8* people have replied, I'll post the tracks and everyone else can match them up with the posters. Then if there's enough interest, we'll go again.

    *Why 8? Because.

    Nadnerb, are you entering? Only I haven't received an entry from you yet, I only have three, from the others that have replied so far.
  7. Cynical_Youth New Member

    Sounds like fun. I'm in.
  8. Toaf New Member

    I'm already in!
  9. Hex New Member

    Sure. Count me in! :)
  10. Delphine New Member

    I've PM'd you one. Of many, though! Of many.
  11. Tephlon Active Member

    That was hard. PM in your inbox.
  12. Victimov8 New Member

    I'll buy that for a dollar...
  13. Freya New Member

    First Round

    Contestants
    Mynona, ChrisJordan, Sleepy_Sarge, Toaf, Cynical Youth, Hex, Delphine & Tephlon.

    The songs:
    1) The End
    2) Under the Bridge
    3) Like a Hurricane
    4) Free Bird
    5) Pinch Me
    6) If You're Feeling Sinister
    7) Nothing Else Matters
    8) No More Tears

    You may have noticed that I didn't put the artists, they will be added later for clues if people aren't close.

    So I ask you, who chose what song? 3 points if you match someone at this stage, 1 point if you get it after the artists are revealed.

    For fairness, the posters mentioned are only allowed to guess in this round by PM.

    edit: had to disable smileys because 8) is the cool face...

  19. Buzzfloyd Spelling Bee

    I want to guess later, Ben, but I am busy with work right now. Give me a bit of time! I'll also PM you with mine.
  20. Electric_Man Templar

    OK, PM received Grace.

    This round is still open to guesses, and I haven't set a limit on when entries should be in by, but the sooner the better!
  21. sampanna New Member

    No fair! Some (at least one) song is by multiple people .. I think the next round should be bands instead of songs.

    Here's my two cents:
    Sleepy Sarge - Free Bird
    Delphine - Under The Bridge
    Hex - No More Tears
    Chris Jordan - Nothing Else Matters
    Toaf - Pinch Me
    Cynical Youth - If You're Feeling Sinister
    Mynona - Like A Hurricane
    Tephlon - The End
  22. Rincewind Number One Doorman

    I've only heard of about two of those songs. How out of the loop I am?
  23. Electric_Man Templar

    At the end of the working day, I shall reveal the artists as well. Note that after this, only one point per correct guess is on offer, rather than the three we have currently. So if you're confident about getting 2 or 3 at this point, it is best to guess now.
  24. spiky Bar Wench

    1) The End..................................Tephlon
    2) Under the Bridge ...................Mynona
    3) Like a Hurricane ....................Sleepy_Sarge
    4) Free Bird ................................Hex
    5) Pinch Me .................................Toaf
    6) If You're Feeling Sinister ..........Cynical Youth
    7) Nothing Else Matters.................ChrisJordan
    8 ) No More Tears..........................Delphine

    pmed my song for the next round and attempting to do this with no clue whatsoever...
  25. Electric_Man Templar

    Time's up! I'm adding the artists. All subsequent posts will only receive one point per correct answer.

    Contestants
    Mynona, ChrisJordan, Sleepy_Sarge, Toaf, Cynical Youth, Hex, Delphine & Tephlon.

    The songs:

  26. Buzzfloyd Spelling Bee

    Edit: Gah! I crossposted with Ben! Ben, may I still have my 3 points each for correct answers, considering I hadn't read your post?

    This was really difficult. I couldn't get my answers to logically fit in with what's already gone, but in the end I couldn't get my head round it, so I gave up. Here's my guess:

    Mynona - No more tears
    Chris - Pinch me
    Sarge - Like a hurricane
    Toaf - If you're feeling sinister
    CY - Nothing else matters
    Hex - Under the bridge
    Snails - Free bird
    Tephlon - The end
  27. Electric_Man Templar

    Hmm, I'll guess I'll be kind and allow you 3 points per correct answer, as I trust you. I hope that Clay will tell me if you burst into a maniacal laugh after reading this.

    Get your guesses in folks!
  28. colonesque10 New Member

    Gah! I crossposted with Ben too!Can I still have my 3 points each for correct answers, considering I hadn't read your post?

    This was hard for me, I did these alone of course, here we go:

    Mynona - No more tears
    Chris - Pinch me
    Sarge - Like a hurricane
    Toaf - If you're feeling sinister
    CY - Nothing else matters
    Hex - Under the bridge
    Snails - Free bird
    Tephlon - The end
    :D ;)
  29. Electric_Man Templar

    So kenny gets a third of the points that Grace did...
  30. Buzzfloyd Spelling Bee

    Thank you, Ben! How many points did I get then?
  31. Andalusian New Member

    Seems I have missed this round. PM'd you, EM.
  32. Electric_Man Templar

    You are in the next round Andalusian, but don't forget you can still guess!
  33. Electric_Man Templar

    OK, I've decided a little over 24 hours left to guess for this round. I will reveal the answers and all the points tomorrow evening (in the UK), and then start the next round!

    So, points table for round one:

    * awarded 3 points per guess
  37. Delphine New Member

    How did Kenny beat me? I ask you! :!: :?: :!:

    I DEMAND A RECOUNT!
  38. Freya New Member

    Watch me slide, stoically, down the rankings as I make my attempt on Round 2 (PM sent, Electric_Man). It was pretty much guesswork, apart from two ....and one of those was me!.

    *wanders off singing the theme tune to "Button Moon"*
  39. Dane New Member

    :shock: I've only herd of two of those and one's mine! watch me as i make my rise through the ranks...ok fall
  40. Electric_Man Templar

    Not too bad Dane, you got two right, which is twice as many as Freya.

    Anybody else getting in on the guessing action?
  41. Freya New Member

    Zero! At least I got my own choice right. Didn't I? I did, didn't I? Bugger.

    *"We're off to Button Moon, to visit Mr Spoon......"*

    :D
  42. Electric_Man Templar

    No-no, if Dane has two, and he has twice as many as you, then you got... one! And that isn't including your own, so rejoice!
  43. Buzzfloyd Spelling Bee

    I'll be guessing later. Haven't had a chance to look at the board for several days, so I'm a bit behind.
  44. Freya New Member

    Ah. Yes. Well. I mean't to do that, of course. Hah, Hah. *Curse those misfiring neurons in my left hemisphere!* :oops:

    On the other hand...... one correct answer. Woo Hoo! :D

    Having hijacked the thread with my lament, example of poor logic and subsequent rejoicing....
