Lyric Fragment Quiz Answers

Never got around to providing the answers to this quiz, but I guess George, Morpheus, Michelle and other readers got almost all of them. Still, just to make it official, here are the songs:


1. "US inflation" Wall of Voodoo, Mexican Radio

2. "put an arrow" Ratt, Round and Round

3. "take me bottom to top" Donna Summer's Dim All the Lights, which I thought was just a sort of sweet song about romancin' and dancin', but nope, turns out the lyrics are pretty dirty.

4. "elders of the gentle race" Led Zep, Kashmir

5. "cold in the gutter" I don't think anyone got this-- TLC, Waterfalls.

6. "empty by definition" -- Scritti Politti, A Perfect Way

7. "a trace of/hypocrisy" -- Extreme, Rest in Peace (Make Love Not War)

8. "thick and juicy" -- Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-lot. I don't think anyone got this, which surprised me.

9. "wild-eyed boys" -- Thin Lizzy, The Boys are Back in Town

10. "you could sex her" -- Young MC, Bust a Move

11. "Dealin' in multiplication" -- Eddie Grant, Electric Avenue

12. "this issue's gone" -- J. Geils Band, Centerfold

13. "I just drove by" -- Vanilla Ice, Ice Ice Baby

14. "feedin' me soup" -- Another one no one got. I'm not big on hip hop, but man, when I heard this song six or seven years ago, I cracked up laughing. It's Positive K, I Got a Man.

15. "ass like John McEnroe" -- House of Pain, Jump Around

16. "your price for flight" (CHANGED: Was "desperately pondered." Decided that was too obscure. The new lyric is for a new song entirely.) Nightranger, Sister Christian (way easy). The old lyric was from Lovefool by... um, the Cranberries? I forget.

17. "virginal brides" -- Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus

18. "lost my light" -- Tainted Love by Soft Cell.

19. "your exclusive company" (HINT: Spoken word part.) -- Popular by Nada Surf

20. "act like an imbecile" Safety Dance, Men Without Hats

21. "shoot it in" -- Relax, Frankie Goes to Hollywood

22. "great big world" -- I was suprised that no one seemed to get this. It's from American Girl by Tom Petty. After all, it was a great big world...

23. "subtle innuendoes" or "subtle innuendo" Goody Two Shoes by Adam Ant

24. "raw like sushi" Ahem. Rico Suave, by Geraldo, or whatever his name was.

25. "little bit terrified" Total Eclipse of the Heart, Bonnie Tyler. Written by Jim Steinman.

26. "tuning in on you" -- Video Killed the Radio Star, the Buggles

27. "eight by twelve four-bit" -- King of the Road by Roger Miller

28. "hating you for loving me" -- Berlin, The Metro

29. "host of holy horrors" -- Rush, Freewill

30. "oatmeal lumpy" -- the Humpty Dance by the Digital Underground

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver.
It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.
Compilation of Naked Gun intros
That theme gets me charged.
Compilation of all Police Squad! openings. They're all the same except for the last few seconds where they reveal the Special Guest Star and the title(s).
Pitch Meeting: Amazon's new, terrible War of the Worlds
I don't know why these tech monopolists spend so much money on ripoff/sequel/remake slop. I like popcorn entertainment but is it legally required to be terrible?
Lost 90s Mystery Click: College Radio Edition
Well you look fantastic in your cast-off casket
At least the thing still runs
This nine to five bullshit don't let you forget
Whose suicide you're on.

Also:
You wax poetic about things pathetic
As long as you look so cute
Believe these hills are starting to roll
Believe these stars are starting to shoot

Podcast: In the last Episode of the season CBD and J.J. Sefton chat about Texas Gerrymandering, The Islamist who is about to be the mayor of NYC, Jim Acosta's ghoulish interview, Israel needs a new strategy for Gaza, and more!
Forgotten 80s Mystery Click: Garrett's Favorite Band Edition
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants your love
I'd just like to make you mine, all mine
I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Soft weak poop from the early 80s Mystery Click
I never liked this song, but it is memorable. In a weak, annoying way.
The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up
Under the neon light
Selling day for night
It's alright
Nobody rides for free (nobody, nobody)
Nobody gets it like they want it to be (nobody, nobody)
Nobody hands you any guarantee (nobody, nobody)
Nobody

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
