^ That thread should explain it ...

Anyway, as for the question....

"When the night has come/ and the land is dark/ and the moon, is the only/ light we'll see/"

These lyrics begin which song, by which artist?

 

[nadroj1985]

"Stand By Me," written by Ben E. King. I have no idea which artist you are looking for who performed it. Many, many artists have covered that song.

Is that good enough?

 

[propane]

Ben E King was who I was looking for, yes . Your turn.

 

[nadroj1985]

Sorry, guys, I'd forgotten about this thread. Ok, here goes:

What's Bob Dylan's real name?

 

[Rufus T Firefly]

Robert Allan Zimmerman

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

To bump this thread, I'm posting a question since I knew what Dylan's real name was too.

Next question: The name Sigur Ros is Icelandic for what?

 

[TheDandyMan]

Victory Rose.


edit: I'll claim my prize now. In the band (sigur ros), what does Jonsi play and what does he use to play it?

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

Guitar, with a cello bow.

Uhhmmm, oh what kind of question can I ask...How about this one. Members of Camper Van Beethoven went on to form this group.

 

[nadroj1985]

ze Monks of Doom, perhaps?

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

Nope, not the band I'm thinking of.

 

[oldrooster]

How about - Filthy Thieving *********

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

Nope....hint - it's the singer's band.

 

[oldrooster]

Is it Cracker ?

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

You got it!

 

[oldrooster]

Cool, my turn, Who was the person who blew his mind out in a car in the Beatle's song "A Day In The Life "? (It was a real person)

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

Tara Browne, friend of the Beatles and great grandson of Edward Guinness, of beer fame.

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

New topical question. Rick James and this artist were in a band together in the 60s. This artist went on to blaze new trails with practically every album he released. Name the artist, and extra credit if you can name the band.

 

[nadroj1985]

Band: The Mynah Birds
Artist: Neil Young

w00t!

 

[Arwen Undomiel]

LOL...guess I wasn't the only one watching Behind the Music on Rick James today.
