Not for me!
 
I tried I'm still stumped!

Wise up RickandRoll. It is easy.

need wisdom
 
OK here's a guess that I think is way off base...

6. settled alientated - Peter Gabriel - Don't Give Up

(moved on to another town, tried hard to settle down)

But it doesn't quite seem to fit.

...but I intentionally chose these clues to use synonyms for words in the lyric. Thus, settle and settled wouldn't work... good try though...

PG might be in the list... perhaps you should look back at the clues I left for RnR.

Hint for you... the answer to #6 exists on the AM playlist by the original artist as well as a cover. I think this should narrow it down considerably.

Let's cancel this thing and move on....

No way do we cancel this..............it's difficult but thought provoking.

If you want to start a new thread go ahead. That's why we moved it to it's own category.

If I list the artists in question in this question, will that make it any easier?
Of course it will. Is that what it will take to move this along?

Rick and Roll 02-23-2004 11:41 AM

no!
 
Hey, I'm too busy at work to figure it out, and by the time I get home, it's been too late to do this question.

I like it, though - and it stumps Jim & Keith, which is not easy!

My question is: move on to where??? It's VAX's question, he earned it, and I'm sure we'll get more clues.

I vote to give it more time....

Just saw VAX's reply - only give out the band as a last resort - it makes it too easy!!!!

And Keith - I agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

moses 02-23-2004 11:54 AM

yes that clue helped!
 
could #6 be ELP-The Endless Enigma?

"everyone came but they all sat alone"

I figured #5 was PG from your clues, but at the moment I can't think what song that would be.

progdirjim 02-23-2004 12:46 PM

#5 - "stealing souvenirs again" - Peter Gabriel - Excuse Me

I wouldn't have gotten that one without the clues though...

Yeah... The one track that's not on the moon...

Moses guessed correctly too...

Score now still tie:

2 moses
2 progdirjim

What's left: 1, 2 (easy), 3, 7, 8, 9
... and gave a clue for 1 too

moses 02-25-2004 12:01 PM

ouch my head
 
Since VAX pounded me over the head with clues, I finally found another one while I should have been working.

Number 8 is the Night Watch (King Crimson) "three hundred years have passed"

Quote:

1. saliva sanitation
2. two jiggers of scotch
3. Edison's company pet
4. sacrosanct annal darkness - BITTER SUITE
5. repeated momento theft - EXCUSE ME
6. settled alientated - ENDLESS ENIGMA
7. dark azure timepiece
8. tercentenary expiration - THE NIGHT WATCH
9. any departing comments?
10. everyone genuflected - CAN-UTILITY AND THE COASTLINERS

Yea!

3 - moses
2 - Jim

1/2 way there... and the easy ones are still on the list.

Rick and Roll 02-25-2004 12:11 PM

where is # 5
 
I didn't see that one solved.

KeithieW 02-25-2004 12:19 PM

Bottom of page 2 Rick......
 
Jim got it...........

Rick and Roll 02-25-2004 12:50 PM

oh
 
it said "NO EXCUSES" that's why I got fouled up.

progdirjim 02-25-2004 04:32 PM

9 - would you like to say something before you leave - Pink Floyd, Summer of '68...

again, thanks to the clues...

Well, I've been trying all day to move this quiz along....

I requested #7's answer today too... Keithie's on
the right path... it's just a bit too dark to see...;)

3 - moses
3 - Jim

1,2,3 and 7 left... are these too difficult or it is just Am apathy?

Rick and Roll 02-25-2004 05:31 PM

no
 
apathy's not the right word. I was ripping through the quizzes when I had a lot of time on my hands - now I'm a spectator unless it hits me right away.

There's no time limit here, you're fine!

Maybe I'll get the last one to mess up someone later:p

progdirjim 02-25-2004 06:10 PM

It's definitely not apathy - just a difficult question - the clue has to hit you the right way to get the lyric, then you have to place it. Bible black was easy for me, since I love that song, and I love France including Lyon. The Pink Floyd and PG I needed the extra clues to focus me in the right place - then it became easy.

Is number 3 Adrian Belew - Big electric cat?
