Actually, I'm not sure I've ever heard the studio version.
Nearly always live, sure he changes the lyrics around sometimes too.. same with Delirium Tremons, that has so many different versions

Drew the rest
Or, to put it another way, we got to the quarters without winning a single game!
Interestingly, four teams that played in Italia '90 didn't exist by the time of USA '94. Anyone care to name them?
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Zaph - 29-10-2021
Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia and Soviet Union are three anyway
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 29-10-2021
Correct.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
West Germany?

Oh, mixed up snooker and darts? To be fair few soccer players are known for their intellect.

RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - osh - 29-10-2021
West Germany maybe
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
@Barna77 and @cee_jay if you both want to play on today with the next question then we can. If either of you are busy we can wait until tomorrow or Monday?
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Necro - 29-10-2021
Did we say West Germany yet?

Think we played in the group stages in against England in Cagliari.. not sure where the others were played
We also only lost 1 game over there, the game against Italy.

RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 29-10-2021
I guessed Bari too. No particular reason, was just drawn to it as a best guess. Checked afterwards, and we didn't play any of our games there, so not sure what in the back of my head was drawing me to it.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
Welcome back. Question 13 is worth 250,000 Euro, you don't have to play it if you don't want to.
Let's see the question
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Barna77 - 29-10-2021
Miles? Metric!!
(wouldn't make much difference anyway...)
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - ShaneU - 29-10-2021
I refuse to believe that anyone knows the answer to that
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - cee_jay - 29-10-2021
I definitely don't.

Miles. It's in the question.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Barna77 - 29-10-2021
thanks @Trigger for your help, I had a vague idea of the right answer. But about soccer and that silly olé olé olé (I call it cultural appropriation), my mind goes blank
I'm getting beers in town this evening I'll send you some. Kol's €125k might afford a few pints

I've no idea so I won't guess in case either cee_jay or Barna ask the audience.

you posted a post in the numbers counting thread that more or less has the answer to this, it was todo with ratios between size of earth, distance to moon and distane to sun. now, but try to recall that info

Forgot about that. Though I actually think I know the answer. At least, knew it in kilometers and was able to convert.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 29-10-2021
We getting the answer tonight?
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
Answers are in, it was the audience in control again, did you throw more players under the bus
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - cee_jay - 29-10-2021
I asked Mr CJ just there what his answer would be, and he was shocked I didn't know it. He said even if I didn't know it I should have been able to work it out, given the time taken for light to travel from the sun to earth and the speed of light. He contends just knowing this song would solve it for me.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021

Yep. 300K km/s, and 8 mins for light to reach earth. And convert to miles.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 29-10-2021
Do you all want to play tomorrow, since it is just 2 left and no lifelines, should be fine for me though whatever you guys decide.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - cee_jay - 29-10-2021
I can play if others are free!
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 29-10-2021
If there's no lifelines then you really only need Cee-Jay and Barna, but I'll be around anyway to watch.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Neowise - 30-10-2021
