Subject: Doc's Cryptiquiz (U,V,W,X&Y songs!) FINITO, WINNERS: HAWK & LOKI!

Written By: Doc Brown on 08/21/06 at 6:06 pm

One more quiz before my Well-deserved Xit, but looking at Hawk's work, the series is in good hands. Of course, he might need a partner to get'em through to Z! (One someone gets Z posted for Round 3.) As usual, there's one song starting with U,V,X&Y worth 3 pts. each, and the starting limit's OFF. Stay tuned for my temporary (Cryptiquiz) Swan Song, and good luck!

Sister - Talking Heads, "Wild Wild Life"

2. us guys didn't come forever, just for fun
Sister - Huey Lewis & The News, "We're Not Here For A Long Time, We're Here for a Good Time"

3. anytime, anyplace
nally - Shakira, "Whenever, Wherever"

4. Landmarks of China, Berlin, Jerusalem...
loki - Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, "Walls"

5. time of juvenile weeping
Hawk - White Lion, & Sister - "When The Children Cry"

6. letters 24 and 25
nally! - Coldplay, "X&Y"

7. arial spinner
Sister - Journey, "Wheel In The Sky"

8. what person is your refuge?
Hawk - Heart, "Who Will You Run To"

9. that which thou is unaware of
Sister - Expose, "What You Don't Know"

10. permanently remembered
loki! - Natalie Cole, "Unforgettable"

11. grown-up girls
Sister - Foreigner, & Hawk - Def Leppard, "Women"

12. As long as an opportunity is visible

13. purple
loki! - Seal, "Violet"

14. operating the thing
Sister - Don Henley, "Workin'It"

15. cruel competition
Hawk - Chris Isaak, "Wicked Game"

16. for what reason is what we have unable to turn romantic?
maddog - Van Halen, "Why Can't This Be Love?"

17. thou is possibly correct
Hawk! - Billy Joel, "You May Be Right"

18. stroll atop H2O
Sister - Eddie Money, & Hawk - "Walk On Water"

Score: nally - 4, Sister - 6.5, Hawk - 7, loki - 7, maddog - 2.

Doc

Hiya Doc!

Is #3 by any chance "Whenever Wherever" by Shakira?

#6 is obviously "X & Y" by Coldplay, I know that much.

They did.  He might have been looking for that answer.

Cool. Maybe he'll see my half-answer and think it over. In the meantime, I'll see if I can think of any additional ones.

I would say that #18, Walk on Water, is by Neil Diamond, and I would be right, but somehow I suspect that is not the song you are looking for... ;)

Best guess, here, Doc-

#4- Either Pat Benatar, or Christina Aguilera

Subject: Re: Doc's Cryptiquiz (U,V,W,X&Y songs!) [2.5 LEFT, CLUES ADDED!]

Written By: Sister Morphine on 08/23/06 at 8:46 pm

Christina Aguilera didn't do a song called Walls.  She didn't even have an album out in 1996.


I'm guessing that maybe #4 is Circle II Circle.

Being that I don't listen to C. Aguilera, I have no idea. I'm guessing here.
