Corrected #20. Oopsie…
I am looking forward to finding out what number 2 is.
I had to Google it for curiosity’s sake… It’s far from what I expected it to be.
Clue time, cos you’ve all ground to a halt…
1: was adapted for the theme to a very popular tv show
2: from the film of the same name
4: 70s legend, 90s song
9: one for an10
13: is not the Doors
15: mostly an actor now
18: another one from a film soundtrack
20: this one might be tough, not sure we have many country music listeners on blitz (or at least in the music threads!)
lobbing up an assist for someone
1 is the sopranos theme, but i don’t know what it’s called or who it’s by
Oh yeah… it’s by Alabama 3, but no idea what it’s called.
18 is Lorde. Yellow Flicker Beat from Hunger Games?
Oh, the Sopranos theme is called Woke Up This Morning.
oh ffs
Yep, team effort on Woke Up This Morning there…
Last chance saloon time, added some more lyrics to 2, 4, 9, 13, 15, 20 in the hope they’ll help someone…
#20 dirtwire - deeper well
Huh, I’d never heard of Dirtwire or this version of the song, I was thinking of the Emmylou Harris original. Still pay it though.
I actually forgot Emmy Lou did it first. I just remember the dirtwire version, my band played it at BNS balls
Might have to lean more towards the 90s triple J stuff in future, that seems to be where the Blitz expertise lies…
2: Elvis Presley, Kissin’ Cousins (from his little-known ‘yay incest!’ phase)
4: Patti Smith - Summer Cannibals
9: The Andrews Sisters - Strip Polka (from their little-known ‘yay strippers!’ phase)
13: The Tea Party - Fire in the Head
15: Ice-T - Money Power Women
Haha you have nailed my expertise.
Yeah…fancy none of us getting the farking Andrews Sisters
