The 1FF GameShow Marathon

Lee I promise some Motown in the next Survivor music tune naming type round, I think you've been after that since The Mole.

I've got no problem with the sound that James has largely posted the songs from. It's just the fact that the vast majority were from that sound so how are those who have a different taste meant to have a chance? I like old school motown/soul etc. If I was running this though, I wouldn't have posted Luther Vandross' back catalogue. There would have been an entire range of genres.

Edit: And yes, I'm sour because we lost.

And that's it! The scores are in, and I can now reveal that Five Guys on a Fact Hunt are today's winner of Name That Tune. Jehovah's Five nick second place with a superb comeback towards the end. 5 pts to Five Guys, and 2 go to Jehovah's Five.

1. Five Guys on a Fact Hunt - 15
2. Jehovah's Five - 8
3. Team Adidas - 6
4. League One & A Lemon - 4
5. Team Tinpot - 2

 

[Spirederman]

Played 5 guys especially LR. Just too quick for me in a round I thought I wouldn't do too badly in.

 

[Ciderhead]

Well and truly living up to our name.

Meh, c'est la vie. There was only one song in that lot that I like and only a few that I recognised at all, but you're never going to please everyone. It seemed like plenty of other people knew most of those songs.

Congrats five guys, good to pick up points again too!

 

[Oaf]

Another game, another occasion where we pick up points. Even though I did fack awwllll besides knowing Ylvis and stealing Spiredeys answer and putting it into one post.

No grumbles about the music here. Knew the majority of the songs, just wasn't fast enough. Bastard Sky internet.

 

[JonBCFC]

is that table correct?

Good spot. No it's not!

I'll fix it. Seems I didn't update the opening post yesterday!

Rammy you've got our overall score wrong. We had more than 14 points before NTT

 

[Oaf]

No grumbles about the music here. I'm going to blame my internet instead.

Fixed that for you Mike mate

 

[Rammy]

Table fixed.

 

[JonBCFC]

Conspiracy!

Fair does, I didn't mean that sarcastically, I meant I was already planning to do that anyway tbh. There was a decent variety of music I thought in this challenge.

In the first Survivor, I had way too many Nintendo games in the video game music haha that wouldn't happen again.

Got so say as well, nice job putting it together Ramires.

Took a lot longer than I thought it would too. There were a few in there that had the GameShow logo, they were added in on Saturday when I removed a load I felt were too easy. Plus, like I said 23 was ridiculous.

Originally had three rounds, the song lyrics in the middle with song intros either side of it.

Wish you did, my Mum's favourite him. I'd have got them all. Never Too Much

 

[blade1889]

I'm sorry Rammy but where was Meat Loaf?

 

[HarvSFC]

I love points.

 

[TomPNE94]

I'm glad we won because if we hadn't I'd have been gutted at missing that round. Would have been perfect for me, especially the Wombats one!

There wasn't too much Indie music in there Tom Tbf, and what there was the points were shared between me and TCM. As for the Wombats track, not doubting you'd have got it, as although Wombats came to me instantly I couldn't for the life of me think of the name of the song. Then when I clicked it wouldn't let me post, then when it let me post I only posted the name of the track, albeit in the next comment down from where I'd answered Wombats!!

Still thought I'd done enough to win us the points though. It was only Oaf's quick thinking, putting them together in one post that rescued us the points. No doubt you'd have recognised it and got the answer down quicker than we did in all that shenanigans.

I went through all the songs before looking at the answers and got all but 2 immediately! The lyrics one I got 6/7 aswell haha!

At a guess the 2 you didn't get...

Scorpions(definitely) and Foo Fighters/The Beatles(Unsure which to go for)??

Ammirite ??? Or totally off Kilter??

Scorpions and Beatles. Give me a bit of credit, love Foo Fighters

 

[Veggie Legs]

"Give me a bit of credit" for liking the Foo Fighters more than The Beatles??? You sicken me.

 

[TomPNE94]

Meh, I like a couple of their songs

 

[Stevencc]

I'm bringing it out again. Tom, this is for you...
