1. They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
Beat It - Michael Jackson
2. Who is the man
that would risk his neck for his brother man?
_____
Can ya dig it?
The Theme from Shaft - Isaac Hayes
3. But I've been traveling on a boat and a plane
In a car on a bike with a bus and a train
Traveling there, traveling here
Everywhere in every gear
Any Road - George Harrison (Estonut saved this from being a shutout I believe. VH1C used to play the video for this one a lot....)
4. Isn't it amazing a man like me
Can feel this way
Tell me how much longer
It will grow stronger every day
Your Smiling Face - James Taylor
5. It ain't right with love to share when you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone as much as I depended on you
It's a Heartache - Bonnie Tyler
6. Why must I feel like that
Oh, why must I chase the cat
Atomic Dog - George Clinton
7. And rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed.
You're my survival, you're my living proof.
My love is alive -- not dead
I'll Be - Edwin McCain
8. Now once I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and he soon departed
And you know he never showed his face again
Higher and Higher - Jackie Wilson or Rita Coolidge (It struck me as so cool that both singers noted for doing this song fit the theme, I had to include it)
9. This wouldn't be the first time
that things have gone astray
Now you've thrown it all away
Cuts Like a Knife - Bryan Adams
10. You like to drive like Mario Andretti
I like it taking my time
But let me say wherever you are going
You know it suits me just fine
Good For Me - Amy Grant
11. But I know what I like
I know I like dancing with you
And I know what you like
I know you like dancing with me oh yeah
Kiss Me Deadly - Lita Ford
12. You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Ooh there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love
Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush (This song drives me up the wall....)
Theme? -
Artists who share a last name with a President of the United States
Which song does NOT fit the theme? -
#7 - McCain (This was the first game I wrote for the entire '09 LS sometime back in September, so I wasn't sure at the time how I would end up setting this game up. I couldn't find a certainty for my 12th song, so I took a gamble and it didn't work, though it did allow me to throw in this 2 point bonus.....)
JJC Points:
Kroxquo gets a JJC point thanks to the lobbying efforts of Minty Man....
Melo gets a JJC point for keeping with the theme in his gag answers...
Pea gets a JJC point for the ES answer....
Marley gets a JJC point because of how funny it seemed to me that the only one he knew was the Theme to Shaft. Can you dig it, Marley?
melly gets not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, but FIVE JJC points for her Atomic Dong answer. The only 5 point JJC answer so far this year, and it will be a hard one to top, especially since I am assuming this was just a typo and not intentional....
Clem gets 3 JJC points because, well, you know why.....
Kay gets 2 JJC points for her continuing "Poor, poor pitiful me" act...
elwood gets a JJC point for calling me a bad mother.....
TBone gets a JJC point because he can always be relied on for a good joke answer in every game....
SC gets a JJC point for putting Annie down for #6, even though we know that chasing cats is not the kind of thing Annie would ever do. Squirrels on the other hand....
Mini's answer was a tad too late, so she gets no JJC points for Calvin Coolidge is a Sexy Beast, but at least I'll count her regular answers since she was obviosuly posting them as I posted the answers. She can't say I don't bend over backwards for her....
