Challenge Four Here we go: I will shortly have Jox post the code for a music player that contains 30 second clips of 15 songs. You’re goal is to identify each song and the artist singing it. Or as in the case of number 3 the composer of the song. You will receive one point for correctly identifying the artist and one point for correctly naming the EXACT title of the song. For a total of 30 points. Just two rules: First, under no circumstances are you allowed to Google or in any way use the internet to identify either the songs or the artists. Not that I can really prevent you but you will know if you cheat and the guilt will be with the rest of your life. Second, you are not allowed to ask anyone else in your household (Phalon) or anyone on this board or just anyone in general to help you. This should be all you. And trust me I went to great pains to make sure there was a sampling of music big enough and popular enough so that there is something everyone will know right off the bat. Now, since we all managed to get here at the same time I can do the scoring one of two ways and you guys can vote on which way before the player is posted. First, I can wait while you guys go through them while we are all here. In which case the FIRST person to correctly identify the song and artists through a post will get the points. And I will give a time limit as to how long you all have to look them over. OR You all can take a look and I can let you have the weekend to mull them over. In which case you should all PM your answers and I will tally the points as we go. And in case of a tie I will come up with a tie breaker song or trivia question for later. What do you all think?

Damn, damn, damn....LX just asked if I wanted her help, and I guess I just have to close down my Yahoo search screen now, won't I?
BTW, I had roast beef, mashed potatoes and gravy, and a salad.
Beats the heck out of freezed-dried bluck-in-a-bag that I've been eating here.
Doesn't matter to me if we do it now, or have time to mull them over. If it is pop, classical, hip-hop, rap, or generally anything other than metal of some sort, I probably won't get it.

May I suggest we get it the heck over with now?
I've got to work tomorrow, and will probably feel the need to crash when I get home. It's supposed to start snowing, and I don't like to work out in the cold.
(now I'm whining, Katina)
