need wisdom
OK here's a guess that I think is way off base...

6. settled alientated - Peter Gabriel - Don't Give Up

(moved on to another town, tried hard to settle down)

But it doesn't quite seem to fit.

...but I intentionally chose these clues to use synonyms for words in the lyric. Thus, settle and settled wouldn't work... good try though...

PG might be in the list... perhaps you should look back at the clues I left for RnR.

Hint for you... the answer to #6 exists on the AM playlist by the original artist as well as a cover. I think this should narrow it down considerably.

No way do we cancel this..............it's difficult but thought provoking.

If you want to start a new thread go ahead. That's why we moved it to it's own category.

If I list the artists in question in this question, will that make it any easier?
Of course it will. Is that what it will take to move this along?

no!
Hey, I'm too busy at work to figure it out, and by the time I get home, it's been too late to do this question.

I like it, though - and it stumps Jim & Keith, which is not easy!

My question is: move on to where??? It's VAX's question, he earned it, and I'm sure we'll get more clues.

I vote to give it more time....

Just saw VAX's reply - only give out the band as a last resort - it makes it too easy!!!!

And Keith - I agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes that clue helped!
could #6 be ELP-The Endless Enigma?

"everyone came but they all sat alone"

I figured #5 was PG from your clues, but at the moment I can't think what song that would be.

#5 - "stealing souvenirs again" - Peter Gabriel - Excuse Me

I wouldn't have gotten that one without the clues though...

Well, I've been trying all day to move this quiz along....

I requested #7's answer today too... Keithie's on
the right path... it's just a bit too dark to see...

3 - moses
3 - Jim

1,2,3 and 7 left... are these too difficult or it is just Am apathy?

no
apathy's not the right word. I was ripping through the quizzes when I had a lot of time on my hands - now I'm a spectator unless it hits me right away.

There's no time limit here, you're fine!

Maybe I'll get the last one to mess up someone later

It's definitely not apathy - just a difficult question - the clue has to hit you the right way to get the lyric, then you have to place it. Bible black was easy for me, since I love that song, and I love France including Lyon. The Pink Floyd and PG I needed the extra clues to focus me in the right place - then it became easy.

Is number 3 Adrian Belew - Big electric cat?
