Friday Night Video

There’s been a lot of talk recently about the new Beatles: Rock Band game. I don’t own any gaming platforms myself (aside from my computer), so I haven’t played it, but I still think its original trailer is simply stunning:

Irene Gallo describes it as “crass commercialism wrapped up in awesomeness,” and I don’t think that’s wrong.

Random 10 9/25

Last week proved more difficult than I expected. Maybe you’ll have better luck guessing these new lyrics:

  1. “Pass the Kouchie” by Mighty Diamonds (later “Pass the Douchie” by Musical Youth), guessed by Occupant
    It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon
  2. “Mother and Child Reunion” by Pioneers (orig. Paul Simon), guessed by Occupant
    I can’t for the life of me remember a sadder day
  3. What about Stacy? We was gonna watch a movie
  4. “My Favorite Mistake” by Sheryl Crow, guessed by Clayton
    They watch you pretend to adore me
  5. All that a man should do is true
  6. You’re weightless, you are exotic
  7. “Rocky Raccoon” by the Beatles, guessed by Clayton
    His rival it seems had broken his dreams
  8. Come out, ye gifted kings and queens
  9. Got a handful of gold and a pocketful of dreams
  10. It has a touch of God’s hand on every stone

Good luck!
