Guess ten, knotty edition
February 23, 2007
I had an interesting revelation about one of my newer art tools yesterday, which I will share with you shortly. Right now, though, it’s time to guess ten. I give you ten lyrics, you give me the artist and song title.
# Animaniacs, “Schnitzelbank” [ "Glen":http://www.art-machine.org ] -Ist das nicht ein hairy chest?-
# Soul Coughing, “Lazybones” [ "(: Tom :)":http://www.funnyfarmonline.org/ ] -When all the noise has left your head, will someday you rise off the bed?-
# Garbage, “As Heaven is Wide” [ "Jess":http://wiw.org/~jess/ ] -If god’s my witness god must be blind.-
# Simon and Garfunkel, “April Come She Will” [ Rebel Squirrel ] -In restless walks she’ll prowl the night.-
# REM, “Welcome to the Occupation” -Hang your collar up inside, hang your freedom higher.-
# Neko Case, “A Widow’s Toast” -Better times collide with now, and better times are coming still.-
# KMD, “Who, Me?” -Then zap goes the nap, now I gots good hair.-
# 10cc (covered by Will to Power), “I’m Not in Love” -So if I call you, don’t make a fuss-
# Tori Amos, “Honey” [ Ted ] -Don’t bother coming down, I made a friend of the western sky-
# Afrika Bambaataa (covered by Rage Against the Machine), “Renegades of Funk” [ "(: Tom :)":http://www.funnyfarmonline.org/ ] -We are the force of another creation, a new musical revelation-

#1 seems to be “Schnitzelbank” (or: “The International Friendship Song”) by The Animaniacs

Well, I’ve lurked around on too many of your guess 10s saying “I knew that” or “Man, John has random stuff in his collection”. So here goes for #9 (though I feel like I’m cheating, as it’s from probably my favorite song by her) Tori Amos / Honey.
Cheers,
Ted

Hah. It’s not cheating to know the answer, although it is cheating to Google the lyric. And you’re right. My collection is rather random. I often have to skip quite a few songs because I assume no one would have a clue what the lyric is from.
