With a little delay another tough one has come to an end.
The scoreboard looks quite familiar at the very top. Once again it's time to send my congratulations to the Shoosters who ran out the Dutch team by only 20 points they received for being the only ones to identify the sound clip of Hardline's "Life's A Bitch".
But I'm happy to introduce two newcomers (Joerg and Mary Clare) at numbers 3 and 4. They did an awesome job with their very first entries and it looks like we finally found a couple of new challengers for the common leaders.
Alice, Rob and STP also beat the 100 points mark again. Well, congrats to ya all... every single one of you. It's been real tough this time, I know.
2 clues stumped this time: Lee Greenwood's "Lola's Love" (okay, no country songs in number 23, I promise -smile-) and Procol Harum's "The Truth Won't Fade Away" (since Pinky & The Brain didn't enter again -wink-).
Toughest of the non-sound clips was Tom Cochrane's "Big League" with only 2 correct entries by the Shoosters and the Royall Park Gang (amazingly it was the only clue they identified this time), while Alanis' "Ironic" was the best identified clue with 45 correct answers out of 52!
There was a little dicussion going on about whether "Are 'Friends' Electric" should have been in the T-pack rather than the N-pack. Well, I know it was originally released by the name of Tubeway Army, but since Gary Numan later released his albums by his own name and this song appears on so many compilations stating Gary Numan as the artist, I thought I'd better place it with the N-pack. It's my quiz, I make the rules, so I can break them *haha*. Anyway, those who reminded me of Tubeway Army did identify it as Gary's work anyway...
Okay, taht's all for now, thanks everybody for participating, see y'all again at #23 (the final edition for 1998).
