Knew all of them except this one. I could belt out the chorus but couldn't tell you anything about the rest of the song.

They're constantly playing it on MTV 80s, which is what I tend to throw on the TV when I'm going out to the kitchen to prepare food/wash dishes etc - I reckon I hear it on a daily basis at this stage...
RE: Survive The LYRICS - RSOAPS - 16-10-2022
Have my answers in, best of luck @jp liz v1

Didn't have a Scooby Doo there, so was happy I still had that Piggyback Token
I've only ever heard that song in games and tournaments here and back on boards, I've never seen or heard it in the real world I don't think
I really enjoy Reality Bites soundtrack

Sudden death on the way
RE: Survive The LYRICS - Kol - 16-10-2022
"The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go"
Liz answered, Be my baby
Soapy answered, Will you love me tomorrow
I can reveal one of you is right

Every now and then I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming 'round"
Total eclipse of the heart, both correct.

There's a gun in your hand it's pointing at your head"
West end girls, both correct

Only one or two will last"
Mmmm bop, liz didnt get this while Soapy did.

My love is pure
I saw an angel

But still it's farewell"
Final countdown, both correct

Congrats @jp liz v1, a deserving winner
Great game @Kol , cheers for hosting
I had a feeling I had that first one mixed up when I was submitting, but was happy not to overthink things at that point
RE: Survive The LYRICS - Homer J. Fong - 17-10-2022
Well done to @jp liz v1 and @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick , both of you have excellent knowledge.
Great game and well run @Kol , I missed the very start so enjoyed playing along from the outside (nice to know you can't be eliminated if you're not officially playing!

Cyndi Lauper took me a little while to remember but I knew Patti Smith straight away.
Didn't post it at the time, in case Kol was using it for another round, but this was what the opening lines of "Swear It Again" mysteriously led me to *shrugs* :
RE: Survive The LYRICS - Kol - 17-10-2022
So the idea with this was to create a series with different themes if the first turned out okay which I think it did. I think though a tweak to the scoring system might be needed. It sounded dramatic at the beginning, the posibilty of loosing multiple players though I think it dwindled interest in the game much quicker. One player per round might be enough but then you need a lot more round and thus questions.
With regards to themes, I had in mind movies, song intros, pitures, and tv show theme tunes.
This brings me to the idea of theme tunes. I would need to create audio files with multplie theme tunes, a small snippet of each, and post them somewhere. Now, my knowledge of creating audio files wouldn't be great, any ideas from those more knowledgeable in this area? Something like Audacity I guess would work?
So these are just ideas, feel free to make suggestions or indeed use the format yourself to create your own games.
RE: Survive The LYRICS - Leg End Reject - 17-10-2022
Yay, more tournaments!
I can't help with the technical query, maybe @Neowise can help?
RE: Survive The LYRICS - nothing - 17-10-2022
I loved this! I did think that upping the number of questions per round might help with separating out players a bit more.
Opening lines in books would work too, maybe jokes and their comedians, stills of actors in certain roles, brand logos/tag lines, words based on its synonyms or antonyms.
RE: Survive The LYRICS - jp liz v1 - 17-10-2022
Catchphrases from iconic TV or film characters e.g. book em Danno, how you doing etc.,
