Music quiz part three, the final (for now) chapter

[smeddley]

Snerffle twist: if more remain unguessed than guessed, no Snerffle points will be awarded. Yes, you can go back and fill in any you think you might know. You can have your friends help, as long as you give them credit.

Round three : stump valonia, the leading expert on smeddley's music.

No Googling, blah blah blah

1. The mark is on you now, the furnace sealed inside your head
2. I met this girl around a quarter to ten, we made it once, she said "make me again"
3. Oscar Wilde died in bed, several floors above my head
4. Talk to me softly, there's something in your eyes
5. Crossing the line of demarcation, they took a passage to the west
6. Here believe a night enchanted seen
7. Signal transmitted, message received, reaction making impact, invisibly
8. I may go out tomorrow if I borrow a coat to wear
9. We came like babies from our home across the sea to see America
10. If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
11. How many times do we hear it, it goes on all day long
12. Wet wind on the sidewalk, I'm staring at the rain
13. Bet the black, it comes up red, crimes of passion fill my head
14. You got me forced to crack my lids in two, I'm still stuck inside this rubber room
15. As sure as the sun rises in the east another gunman will come seeking my defeat.

Do I get any points for telling you that #5 says "demactation" and should probably say "demarcation"?

[smeddley]

No, because I don't see any typo... *whistles innocently*

I can't imagine what it's going to be like if I'm forced to get a phone with an on-screen keyboard, I can hardly manage the real one my phone has now. *sigh* (like just there it randomly went into 'please type a new url' mode. Yay!)

Yours is the ONLY music meme I've been able to get answers correct in. You do realise we live in the wrong era?

1. Bruce Dickinson - The book of thel
2. Cinderella - Shake me (Incidentally, did Cinderella officially have the biggest hair in rock because combined...well, that's a lot of big hair?)
4. Guns 'n' Roses - Don't cry
5. Magellan - Storms and mutiny (woot! Prog rock!)
6. TSO - Night enchanted (I think that's the name of it. I have a weakness for Wizard in Winter)
7. Rush - Correct chemistry (hubby guessed this one - does it still count???)
9. SPINAL TAP (woot!!!) - America
10. Motorhead - Ace of spades
12. Jethro Tull - Another Harry's bar (I think. It will be if the next line is "Walking up the street and walking down again".)
13. Bon Jovi - Roulette (I sooo wanted to have Bon Jovi's babies when I was a lass. I've never told anyone that before...)
14. (Not entirely sure so guessing as I think it has been covered by a few bands) Skid Row - Slave to the grind
15. Megadeth - Wanderlust

What, no King Crimson?

I'll never forgive you for making me reveal my secret music pleasure to the world! ;)

I am truly amazed! O.o. The only nitpick is, according to my file, the name of the Rush song is just "Chemistry", but I don't know well enough to be sure (there are a TON of Rush songs out there, I tried to make a mix CD of my favorites for the car and they wouldn't fit on one... or two...).

I think some of the others you know, they just aren't coming to you - there will be some forehead-smacking, I'm sure. :D

And yes you can move iton my music collection, but I need a newer Mustang so we can just plug in a hard drive with *all* of it on there and drive around, singing loudly (and in my case, off-key).

Some of the stuff is my hubby's taste (Magellan) but I've found I like it... Nightwish is one he started listening to and now I *LOVE* it.

[valonia.livejournal.com]

I can't believe I missed the Muppets one *facepalm*

I have a sneaky suspicion that 11. is a Rush song too. I'd hedge a guess at Show Don't Tell but I'm really not certain.

*starts packing immediately*

Mustang and music? Now that is my kind of heaven.

I've not heard Nightwish. Can't seem to find a dl of it either. I do love Disco Biscuits though. My mother has an annoying game that she likes to play called Phone My Daughter And Sing At Her Until Said Song Is Stuck In Her Head And Then Hang Up Laughing. I'm using Disco Biscuits to remove Stairway to Heaven from my head... I think it's her payback for all the AC/DC I made her listen to in the pub yesterday.
