Are you sure there’s 14? I only hear 13.
#4 is Mountain Song by Jane’s Addiction
1. Baby I Love Your Way – not the Peter Frampton version I am familiar with
2. Baby Love – the Supremes
3. Baby I’m a Want You – Bread
8. Don’t You Want Me Baby – Human League (gaaa)
11. Baby Come Back – Player (had to cheat on the group)
13. Baby Hold On – Eddie Money
There are 14. #7 is short and blends into #8 kinda.
I’m still only hearing 13. If #7 is two songs, then I missed two. I can’t hear two songs there, but I don’t know what song that is, so maybe I’m just an idiot. So then, that would make Human League #9?
1. Peter Frampton: Baby I Love Your Way
2. The Supremes: Baby Love
3. Bread: Baby I’m a Want You
4. Jane’s Addiction: Mountain Song
5. Van Morrison: Baby Please Don’t Go
6. Donna Summer: Love to Love You Baby
7. ?
8. Human League: Don’t You Want Me
9. Tracy Chapman: Baby Can I Hold You
10. Salt N Pepa: Push It
11. Player: Baby Come Back
12. Question Mark & the Mysterians: Can’t Get Enough of You Baby
13. Eddie Money: Baby Hold On
Whoops, looks like you’re right. I left a song out I meant to include. Only 13 tracks.
Whew, glad I’m not crazy.
So did I get them all right except #7?
This edition of name that tune isn’t for everybody.
Only the Sexy people.
Susan! I actually knew a lot of these. So fun.
1. Baby I love your way
2. Baby love. Supremes
3.
4.
5.
6.
7. Love to Love you Baby – Donna Summer
8. Oukast – thank you
9. Don’t you want me baby
10.?
11. PUSH IT Salt N’ Peppa – This made me smile
12. Baby come back
13. Can’t get enough of you Baby.
So… at least I had heard and knew the tunes to all of the songs in this. I may not have known all the songs/artists but this was easier for me than the last one I listened to.
MCQ: Yeah, except #1 is a version by a band called Big Mountain.
#7 is Outkast – The Way You Move.
Well I only got a few but
1Oh Baby I love your way
2Baby love
6love to love me baby
8Don’t you want me baby
12Baby hold on to me
Damn. I was thinking old motown. Shows what I know.
I didn’t even think of #1 being someone other than Frampton. I should have listened closer.
Big Mountain did the version that was in Reality Bites. Thus ends my trivia for the day…
The clip of “Push It” that you used was very tough. Probably the only part of that song that is not very recognizable.
1 Ooh Baby I love your ways – Big Mountain version(?)
2 Baby Love – Supremes
3 ?
4 Comin down the Mountain – Janes Addiction
5 ? – Rolling Stones?
6 ? (Some Disco band)
7 Earth Wind and Fire?
8 Don’t you want me baby – Human League
9 ? – Tracy Chapman
10 Push it – Salt n peppa
11 Baby come back – Player
12 Can’t get enough of you baby – not Smashmouth version
13 ? – Eddie Money?
MCQ are you googling these? That’s cheating
MCQ: I had a request to use “Push It,” and that specific line from it.
Susan, what do you use to splice pieces of MP3′s together?
This one was very fun. (I knew 6 for sure. Only knew the Jane’s Addiction song from Rock Band!)
There used to be an 80′s website that did weekly clips like this. My wife and I were totally addicted to that contest.
Oh, FHL….I LOVED that website. My sister & I would play every Friday morning when we both got to work.
I use a free software called Goldwave. Audacity is also good, but Goldwave is really simple to use.
No, Geoff, but thanks for asking. If I was googling, I’m sure I could have gotten Outkast.
I had to wiki Can’t Get Enough of You Baby to get the band, because I knew it wasn’t Smashmouth but I couldn’t remember who did the original version. Turns out The Toys did, so that didn’t help.
I do listen to the song on iTunes to confirm whether I’m right, but that’s AFTER I guess, so it’s not cheating.
I googled Eddie Money cuz I’m a cheater like that
Susan that was so much fun! I knew most of them this time!
A small point of clarification: the band on #5 is Them, not Van Morrison.
Good catch. I have it as part of a Van Morrison “best of” so it’s labeled as Van in my itunes.
I always enjoy this game, but I realize I’ve never properly “played” it, since I never leave any comments on it, so… I got 9/13, not too shabby I guess.
Baby, I love your way
Baby I’m a want you
Mountain song
I love to love you, baby
I Love the way you move
Don’t you love me, baby
Baby can I hold you
Baby, come Back
Can’t get enough of you, baby
