The Lyric Quiz.

In an effort to breathe some life into the old quiz, I changed the concept to lyrics from well known (by some of a certain age and inclination) album tracks. So, all you do is fill out the name of the track and album it comes from (don't bother with the name of the band) , then press the "Send Answers" button. The prize, as usual, is £ 60 (that's $ 100 in real money) to spend on anything in the shopping zone.

A word of warning: none of the lyric search engines on the web give all the answers?

TIP:

Get the questions on-line and do the quiz off-line, then log-in later and zap the answers onto the page and down the line to me.

The answers and the names of the winners will be given on the December pages. So watch this space and good luck!

"Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back, To the place I was before".


"High on the mountain stands a boat,
But are they gods or real folk?"


"Radan atto raddan atto,
Stou to mutto sha go teka".


"Right before your eyes, we pull laughter from the skies,
and he laughs until he cries. Then he dies. Then he dies".


"And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking".


"I sense autumn coming on,
The mist has hung low all day".


"On my wall the colours of the maps are running,
From Africa the winds they talk of changes coming".


"And now I'm standing on the grave of a soldier who died in 1799,
And the day he died it was a birthday, And I noticed it was mine".


"Lost on a painted sky,
Where the clouds are hung for the poets eye".


"You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun,
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun".


"The sun had been up for a couple of hours,
Covered the ground with a layer of gold".


"And my conductress on the number nineteen,
She was a honey. Pink toenails and hands all dirty with money".

He came to the world in the usual way".


"All the way from Washington,
Her bread winner begs of the bathroom floor".


"Another fish head in the dustbin,
Another loser in the queue for the soup kitchen".


"A vast radiant beach in a cool jeweled moon,
Couples naked race down by its quiet side".


"Now once upon a time - an old man told me a fable,
When the piper is gone - and the soup is cold on the table".


"They burned down the gambling house,
It died with an awful sound".


"And through the rhythm of moving slowly,
Sent through the rhythm work out the story".
