Hey everybody and everybody else. Welcome to the twenty-fifth knuckle-gnawing week of Name That Tune at Popdose. Rules, rules, always rules:
The Rules (subject to modification in future games):
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.
The Puzzle clip may only be guessed once between updates, but may still be guessed if you have used up your regular three guesses.
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-three very brief song clips. Most of the songs are well known; none of them are obscure. The clips are drawn from a variety of styles and decades. It’s likely that you’ll find a few of them instantly recognizable, while a few others you won’t know at all (but other people will).There are two parts to this game. The first is guessing the songs themselves. The second part is guessing the puzzle song (clip 23). Once again, we’re doing an acrostic game: This time, the first letter of the name of the SONG for the first 22 clips spells out a clue to the identity of the puzzle song. (And of course, if the puzzle song is guessed early, that ought to help nail down the rest of the songs.)Some songs may go unguessed the first time round. If songs remain unguessed after a day, I’ll upload longer clips.
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
And the Puzzle Song:
