ANSWERS/POINTS

#26 Post by littlebeast13 » Fri Jan 04, 2008 7:26 am

1. Twenty-five years ago, they spoke out and they broke out
Of depression and opression and together they toked
And they folked out with guitars around a bon fire
Just singin' and clappin', man what the hell happened
Walking On The Sun - Smashmouth

2. We All Know That People Are The Same Where Ever We Go
There Is Good And Bad In Ev'ryone
Ebony and Ivory - Paul McCartney & Stevie Wonder

3. Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
Shout - Tears for Fears

4. Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no
The Tide Is High - Blondie

5. Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay
Shake It Off - Mariah Carey

6. If I were the king of the world
Tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war
Make sweet love to you
Joy To The World - Three Dog Night

7. I bought a '30 Ford wagon
And we call it a woodie
Surf City - Jan & Dean (This was the lyric I used for my first ever clue that got nobody any bonus points. More on this later on....)

8. When she woke up late in the morning
Light and the day had just begun
She opened up her eyes and thought
O' what a morning
All That She Wants - Ace of Base

9. Nothing can catch her
Nothing can touch my ____
409 - Beach Boys

10. Back then long time ago when grass was green
Woke up in a daze
Arrived like stangers in the night
When We Was Fab - George Harrison

11. Girl we can't,
Change the places where we were born.
Before you say,
That you want me.
I want you to think,
What your family would say
Dawn (Go Away) - Franki Valli & the Four Seasons

12. You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good
SOS - ABBA


Theme? - Sun, Ivory, Shout, Tide, Off, Joy, Surf, All, 409, Dawn, and SOS are all products sold in my department, which of course is the Cleaning Products (We haven't sold Fab in years, but hey, it fits the category! And for those wondering about Off, bug sprays and repellants are in the same section)

As for that very first LS I did back on October 3rd, 2002 (I said the 1st but according to my notebook I wrote the songs down in, it was the 3rd, so I must have gotten a late start on the game that month). Anyway, I still have all the lyrics I used wrote down since I was still 8 days away from ditching the WTVT® for good and getting a computer (and 10 days away from going back to the WTVT® after the damn hard drive blew up!) But since some people thought I was asking for all the songs I used in both LS games, here's the complete list of songs I used for the 10/3/02 game:

1. Surf City
2. That's All
3. Joy To The World
4. Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me
5. Dawn
6. Shout
7. Ebony and Ivory
8. When We Was Fab
9. Just a Friend (by Biz Markie... I went away from having themes rely on artists this go around, however)
10. The Tide Is High
Theme Song: Dirty Laundry

So it looks like I used 7 songs in this game from that very first LS... but Surf City was the first. I always thought that was kind of a stupid song to start a gaming career with....

I'm just a little disappointed that you couldn't work Barf into your titles anywhere.
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!

That'll be $10, please.

I know quite a few (courtesy Radio Disney) that make me barf, but none with Barf in the title.

If only Weird Al, or someone like him, could come up with something...
