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

Hints: breakthrough solo album from 1980 of a musician known for his work in big 70s groups.
Stand up in a clear blue morning
Until you see what can be
Alone in a cold day dawning
Are you still free? Can you be?
And that old grey wind is blowing
And there's nothing left worth knowing
And its time you should be going

That's a gift for you, Bumblebee. Enjoy it, Coach DickNBalls.

Can Israel End Iran's Nuclear Program? A conversation with nuclear weapons expert David Albright [CBD]
Troops wearing Union army uniforms walked by, and then the First Cavalry wearing their cavalry hats and big yellow buff leather gloves. They even had a horse-drawn wagon. Now WWI uniforms.
BTW, Tampon Tim, China stages a lot of Chinese army parades, too. Weird that you didn't compare Trump's military parade to the parades staged by your patrons in China.
A commenter says the Real America network will cover the Army's 250th Anniversary Parade starting at 4pm. (Eastern, I guess.) The Right Side Broadcasting network will cover it starting at 4:30.
Israel bombs Iran.
Finally.
Iran's top nuclear scientist says the nuke plant at Natanz has been completely destroyed. Though it's in Iran's interest to lie about Israel having been successful, so they can start their nuke program again while claiming it's all been destroyed.

Included in their itinerary is a small-town “road game” at the ICE Detention Center in rural Taylor, TX this Saturday at 10 AM. Good ol’ boys in Central Texas will have a rare home field advantage if their visitors get rowdy. [Buck]

Space Ice: Batman & Robin
Space Ice has avoided all superhero movies (I think) in the past, but now that he's out of Steven Seagal movies, he might have to transition. Or maybe he's just covering it because it's Arnold.
Wrong! He's done Madame Web and Morbius and probably a bunch more I've forgotten.
