Title: Musical Intro Quiz
Post by: usedbustickets on January 05, 2012, 22:57:20 PM
Listed below are the intro's from some of my favourite songs performed by the original artist, can you name the song and the artist?

1 - Shall I tell you about my life?
2 - Dirty old river...
3 - You think we look pretty good together
4 - Like a fool I went and stayed too long
5 - I want a house with a pool, shorter hours at school
6 - I saw you out the other night
7 - I have seen the morning burn golden on the mountain
8 - In the deserts of Sudan
9 - I am the magnificent ... I'm backed by the shack of a soul boss most turnin, storming sound of soul
10 - I met a gin soaked bar room queen in Memphis
11 - Beware of his promises..Believe what I say
12 - Time takes a cigarette .. puts it in yer mouth

Reviewing the list again it does look like the over 50s will have a great advantage ... Still I didn't say it was going to be fair. ;)
And no googling, unless your under thirty.
Good luck

Yep the great Doctor Feelgood - OK one down two to go ... 7 and 11.  I am really surprised no one's got 7 yet, a genre classic, covered by many, but the original recording by the writer continues to be the best. And you won't get any more clues than that:D
