Too easy... Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd (and more recently covered by Scissor Sisters).

Go on, somebody post a new one
 (preferably from the 80's, cos I am getting on a bit...) :)

Hey, if you're going to post quizzes based on binary representations of bizarre commands from arcane computer systems, then I'm going to post lyrics from a song this side of the 90s :razz: I challenge anyone to get this without Googling it (and yes, I'll know if you did. I can see things!!!!!)


Walking like giant cranes
And with my X-ray eyes I strip you naked
in a tight little world
are you on the list?

Well you're warm, but wrong decade - it's from the 00s. Maybe that will narrow your search ;)

Spent all day listening to my REM stuff, Nope wasn't them (enjoyed it though)...
My brother in law popped in and asked what I was up to, sniggering he blurted out it was RadioHead, 'A Wolf At The Door' from the album 'Hail To The Thief'.

Damn, that spoiled that one for me... (he's now barred !!!)

Well you were pretty close :) It's a great song!

Quote from: Franko;572549
Ok. so I can't take the credit for that one, put up another please... :)

Ok, try this one - was listening today :)

I'm so lonely, that's ok
I shaved my head
And I'm not sad
And just maybe
I'm to blame for all I've heard


Quote from: Franko;572549
In the meantime I'll leave you with this one, its from the late 90's

'Johnny the horse was kicked to death'
'he died for entertainment'

Cheers  :drink:

Franko

No way I'm going to get that one - I'll leave it to someone else :)

Drat, none of those lyrics ring a bell in my little brain... :confused:

But as I hate giving up on a challenge, I'll need a clue for this one (please...) :)

Ok. Your clue is: "Periodic table" :wink:

Quote from: Franko;572657
Your right it's a great song (I'll have to erm... borrow the brother in laws CD, he owes me that much) ;)

My favorite Radiohead track of all time is CREEP (pure class) :cool:

Hmm, was never a big fan of Creep TBH. I would have great difficulty choosing my favourite Radiohead song :)

Well you're right to be thinking of elements on the periodic table, but you should be thinking of the name of the song not the band... ;)
