nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4761 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: May 09 2011, 21:38 Falco and Peter Orloff, "Jeanny". Compelling lyrics. What do I win?   Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: May 10 2011, 07:12 @ nightspore: Falco - no, Peter Orloff - yes, "Jeanny" - not really. (Although it's commonly known as "Jeanny Part 4", the actual song title is longer - it does include the name Jeanny. Indeed, the first 5 words of the chorus are the title. ). However, you've answered my "Who is this?" question. What do you win? Well, make a request. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

I thought that Johnny Marr's collaboration with Neil Tennant, as Electronic, wasn't as well known as the PSB. Evidently I was wrong. @ Dan: I'd rather send you one of my own songs than sing a cover of a song I don't like. OK, next one: who is this? This time I'm giving no hints 'cause it's really easy. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Beady Eye - Man of Misery. Your choices lately have had a valedictory quailty, Ugo - why is that? Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: May 10 2011, 08:54 @ nightspore: very good - I was right, it was easy, even though it's a B-side. Regarding my choices, well, I had to look up "valedictory" because I didn't know what it meant , but no, that's pure coincidence. All of my mystery clips tend to be either little-known songs, or songs by people who sound like other people and, as such, may be easily confused with other people. Like this. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2263 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: May 10 2011, 09:19 A few Mystery songs ago I was going to post ..Soviet by Electronic  it's a nice simple piece.. Also their "Stop if you've got Love" track is a dead ringer for "Pump up the Jam" Idiot Country and Flicker being my faves Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: May 10 2011, 09:26 The concept of coincidences not actually existing has been explored and exploited in the past by various people. Right now, off the top of my head, I can't quote any speficic names. Regarding my latest mystery, no, it's not Mike O. What did I just write above here about people sounding like other people? -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

I'm almost sure that this is Bjørn Lynne but I don't recognize this particular track. But this is his style and instruments. -------------- If I were music, I would be Enigmatism. Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: May 11 2011, 08:09 @ EeToN: very good, it's indeed Bjørn Lynne. You don't need to tell me the track title ("The Spirit Rider"), because this quiz is "Who is this?". I shall post my next 'mystery' on Friday, as the connection I have here right now is too slow to upload files. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2263 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: July 07 2011, 23:57 Another Mystery (Should be easy for Ugo ). And it's not a TV or Movie soundtrack.... in fact you can here a short reprise of their most famous tune mid way through the piece.... Mystery 11 or thereabouts Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: July 24 2011, 13:47 @ "Colonel" Millie a.k.a. Cameron: sorry for the very late reply... yes, the game got a bit lost. Anyway, it's Tears For Fears. That plinging guitar is unmistakable without ever hearing the reprise in the middle. I don't know this tune, though. What is it? -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2263 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: July 24 2011, 16:50 Very Good Ugo   I thought you would find that one easy. The track is called "Pharoahs" and it was originally the B side to Everybody Wants to Rule the World. Good Bye Old Friend Thanks for Everything. Back to top
