Give graphic clues to the song. No words, pics only. No website links other than pics (no videos, etc.)

Example:




Answer: You're listening to Dire Straits, Money for Nothing.

Lemme tell ya them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We got to install microwave ovens custom kitchen deliveries
We got to move these refrigerators we gotta move these color TV's


Got it?

Answer correctly and present the next clue. If you present a clue, PM me (Dukasaur) with the correct answer so I can correctly adjudicate disputes.

Rules:

• This is an Official game. Prizes will be awarded in accordance with the Official Rules Policy. Winner announced on August 20th after five months of play (based on most total right answers).
• If you make the clues too obscure and nobody gets it, post additional clues. After three to five days, I'll call "no winner" and we'll reset.
• In addition to the above, if the game takes off (has more than 20 unique participants each month) I will add subsidiary prizes (based on most right answers withing a calendar month).
• Don't hog the game -- after making a guess, wait either 12 hours or until the next clue to guess again.

Subsidiary prize for March will be 500 credits.

Okay, here we go, first one:

Jungleland - Bruce Springsteen

You got it!

The Rangers had a homecoming
In Harlem late last night
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine
Over the Jersey state line
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
The Rat pulls into town, rolls up his pants
Together they take a stab at romance
And disappear down Flamingo Lane
Well, the Maximum Lawmen run down Flamingo
Chasing the Rat and the barefoot girl
And the kids 'round there live just like shadows
Always quiet, holding hands
From the churches to the jails
Tonight all is silence in the world
As we take our stand
Down in Jungleland
The midnight gang's assembled
And picked a rendezvous for the night
They'll meet 'neath that giant Exxon sign
That brings this fair city light
Man, there's an opera out on the Turnpike
There's a ballet being fought out in the alley
Until the local cops, Cherry-Tops, rips this holy night
The street's alive as secret debts are paid
Contacts made, they flash unseen
Kids flash guitars just like switchblades
Hustling for the record machine
The hungry and the hunted
Explode into rock 'n' roll bands
That face off against each other out in the street
Down in Jungleland...

show

Post the next one, please sir...

actually, that was
Buy, Buy Miss American Pie (woman in 1st pick is name American Pie, and she is leaving)
Drove my Chevy to the levy (Miss American Pie is sitting in her Chevy)

N good ol boyz were drinking whiskey n rye (what else are the head honchos drinking at Exxonn?)

Wow,

Great Sax Solo though - Thanks Duk!

Song #2

The Dock of the Bay

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
Watchin' the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide, roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia
And I headed for the Frisco Bay
'Cause I've got nothin' to live for
Looks like nothin's gonna come my way, so
I'm just come sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
Looks like nothin's gonna change
Everything seems to stay the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same
I'm sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
This two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
Now I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
I'm wastin' time

Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple

You've got it my friend.

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
......

Your turn now

Now you've gone and done it - we are going to be stuck with some south korean song to figure out.

Good stuff!

Song #3

Shape of You by Ed Sheeran.

Don't judge me...



Come over and start up a conversation with just me
And trust me I’ll give it a chance now
Take my hand, stop, put Van the Man on the jukebox
And then we start to dance, and now I’m singing like

Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don’t mind me
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead

I’m in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I’m in love with your body
And last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with your body
Oh—I—oh—I—oh—I—oh—I
I’m in love with your body
Oh—I—oh—I—oh—I—oh—I
I’m in love with your body
Oh—I—oh—I—oh—I—oh—I
I’m in love with your body
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with the shape of you

damn those koreans.
nice one.

In case I'm right, can someone tutor me on how to paste an image I find on google?

I think hop's cryptic reply indicated that you were right...

In Firefox I use a two-step procedure to post pics.

First, just to be clear, it is possible to do it in one step, but leads to more errors. The one-step method is to right click on an image, select "Copy Image Location", and then come to your post and CTRL-V the image inside an Img and /Img bracket. The only trouble is that a lot of images you find have problems. Either they're encrypted or they're dynamically generated or they're in some weird proprietary format, all of which prevents them from posting properly.

To avoid those problems, I insert a preliminary step before the final step. First I right-click on the image and select "View Image". This isolates the image in its own tab. You can now look at the address bar for that tab, and the file name of the image should be clearly visible. The file name should end in .jpg or .png or .svg or .gif. If it doesn't end in one of those, it almost certainly will not display properly when you repost it. Don't even try, just go find something better. The SECOND step, assuming you have a good file, is to CTRL-C the file name from the address bar and CTRL-V it into your post (again, inside Img tags.) The forum editor has an Img button which creates the tags for you -- you just have to position your cursor inside the tags.

Let me know if you have any trouble.
