Okay, I've been playing a game called "Beat the Intro" on DVD recently so I thought I'd do a similar sort of thing on here....
It's just a bit of fun to test your musical brains. I might only be 18 but I have a pretty broad musical taste so this should suit people who listen to various eras :)
The Rules
- I will post 5 different song intros, one from each decade between the 60's and now.
- I will give a decent portion of the intro (Obviously some songs have longer intros than others)
- Post your answers in this topic - preferably with the template below, it will make it easier for me to keep track of who answered what first :D
60's Song - (Type answer here or leave blank)
70's Song -
80's song -
90's song -
00's song -
- Only those who post the correct artist
and
the song title will be seen as having the 'right answer'
- Don't say my song choices are rubbish, the songs chosen are ones that I have on my computer at the moment, deal with it :p
- I will do another round when all current songs have been guessed correctly, if there is a song that no one can guess within a time period then I'll give some clues/hints.
- This is just for fun and aimed at anyone who likes music, there will be some easy songs, and some hard. Not every song is a popular musical 'hit'. I will feature some songs by mainstream artists that aren't well known to those who just know the artist vaguely.
I think that's it, so here's the first 5 click on the decade and the song should play straight away, hold "Ctrl" while you press on the link to open it in a new window.
(N.B. I think the intros use quicktime to play, so make sure you have it installed or it probably won't work.)
Enjoy :D
First Round

Good luck
I'll try and check the topic as often as possible but obviously there may be times when I can't check it for a few days or so due to things I might be doing in the real world.
