Howdilly ho, Popdoserinos! Time for another Medskerrific game of Name That Tune. I used to think I had a good sized CD collection…until I started running this game. Now, it seems infinitely small.
The Rules:
- MAXIMUM THREE GUESSES between updates of the list, to give everyone a chance to play. An update of the list is when I post the entire list of correct guesses with the words “OFFICIAL UPDATE.”
- While I’m not going to be a stickler for spelling and punctuation, you must guess the correct musician and song title to a close approximation.
How the game is played: I have uploaded twenty-five very brief song clips. Please bear in mind that both my record collection and knowledge of music are probably 5% of that of Scraps’, so these quizzes won’t be nearly as comprehensive – or even hit-based – as his were. I will use mostly well-known songs, but I reserve the right to use something obscure if it suits my needs, like it does this week. Live versions and covers are also fair game, though I will stay away from remixes, because that’s just mean.
There is a puzzle song, with the other songs offering a clue as to its identity. It will probably take you three and a half seconds to figure it out. If that.
And here are the clips:
- clip 1
- clip 2
- clip 3
- clip 4
- clip 5
- clip 6
- clip 7
- clip 8
- clip 9
- clip 10
- clip 11
- clip 12
- clip 13
- clip 14
- clip 15
- clip 16
- clip 17
- clip 18
- clip 19
- clip 20
- clip 21
- clip 22
- clip 23
- clip 24
- clip 25
Lastly, here’s the Puzzle song.
I suggest subscribing to the comments on the post to more easily follow the progress of the game. Remember — please! — NO MORE THAN THREE GUESSES between updates of the list. Have fun!
