Apparently this was a tougher one again, and I'm afraid #22 won't be much easier.
Again the Shoosters finished first and only Alice, Ku and the Dutch Officials went beyond the magic 100 point mark (though Dave came pretty close to that score too).
Congratulations to everybody and thanks for keeping the faith even at the tougher ones.
Bonus points were granted to the Dutch officials (for correctly identifying Malcolm McLaren) and the Sharp Shoosters (for Johnny Warman's "Screaming Jets". WOW! I didn't really expect anyone to be familiar with that song, but i figure there must be some Peter Gabriel experts amongst the shoosters who remembered Mr.Gabriel's contribution to the chorus in that song.
We had 2.5 stumpers this time (since the Dutch Officials identified Malcolm McLaren but nobody came up with the song title "Boy's Chorus"). Full stumpers were the sound clips of "Moonlight Drive In" by Turner/Nichols and (much to my surprise) Roachford's "Emergency".
The best known song in this edition was R.E.M.'s "Man On The Moon" and the Wallflowers' "One Headlight" did amazingly well too. I really love that song, but it literally went nowhere over here. So I figure it must have been real big in the U.S. though.
Lots of people knew that 2a was the Blues Brothers, but only a few came up with the actual title. A similar phenomenon occurred with 4a: A lot of people knew the song title was "Just Between You And Me" but couldn't remember the artist. And many of those who knew it was a Lou Gramm song suggested "Heaven And Earth" for the title (which of course makes sense if you are familiar with the chorus, but I'm afraid Mr.Gramm chose to use a different line for the title).
Okay, thanks everybody for participating, see y'all again at #22.
