    Have we stumped the panel?

    Don't you hate people who spoil a perfectly good game of "Song Quote Thread" by posting something impossibly obscure?

          Indeed, KRSESQ, hence rule #2!

          I am now taking over. Your quote was simply too hard, it's costing you a point

          Next quote, oh and ppl, make them just a little bit longer please, like:

          "And I'm hovering like a fly
          Waiting for wthe windshield on the freeway"

            "Fly on the Windshield" Genesis, From The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (I think).

            Speaking of which: anybody know the last thing to go through a bug's mind when hitting a windshield?

                Actually, the punchline to the joke is: "His ****ole"

                    Okay, for the record:

                    Nice Girls by Eye to Eye, 1982.

                    Rule number three may have to be "Top 40 for at least three weeks or top ten for at least two weeks."

                      If that is the right answer to the quote by Guru, would you be as kind as to offer a quote?

                          OK, thx Guru. Well done KRSESQ. Not usre it'll take you to get online, so I'll offer one for now:

                          "Pretence and illusion to avoid who you are
                          Don't work on yourself,
                          Just polish the car.
                          Switch on the telly, afraid you might find
                          That as well as a body, you've also a mind"

                          Rather obscure and outside of the UK I'd really be surprised if anyone cam up with this one. -1 point to me if no one gets it, 3 (that is 2 plus one bonus) to the one who does get it!

                            crass - you can be who?


                            So this is mine:

                            "I don't want nothin' from anyone, ain't that much to take
                            Wouldn't know the difference between a real blonde and a fake"

                              Looks like i'm old enough to know it:
                              Bob Dylan : Highland

                              Here's mine:

                              It's not that I'm embarrassed or shy, well, you know me too well
                              but I want to make this song special in a way that you can tell.

                                Man, I can't believe anyone would guess that Crass title..... You really knew that song?!?

                                I'll be preparing score tables every 2 pages or so and edit that in the top thread. Scoring system is not yet completely decided, but I think it'll be:
                                1. Guessing a quote - 2 points (unless I award a bonus like in the Crass quote)
                                2. Posting a quote which is guessed - 1 point
                                3. Posting a quote which is not guessed - -1 point
