10. Bonus Question - What band was this song done by first?
http://www.youtube.com/v/nXb0KnVjeDQ

[Vantarr]

Too easy.

1. Paradise By The Dashboard Lights-Meatloaf
2. I Won't Back Down - Tom Petty (solo without the Heartbreakers)
3. Losing My Religion - REM
4. Mr. Blue Sky - Jeff Lynne (originally done with the rest of his band, ELO, though)
5. I Know You're Out There - Moody Blues
6. My Sharona - The Knack
7. So Far Away - Dire Straits
8. Imagine - John Lennon
9. Whip It - Devo
10. Mother - Looks like Sinead O'Connor, singing with Roger Waters only? Orginally sung by David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)

[quarum]

Very nice indeed - even on the Bonus question.

That clip of Mother is off The Wall Live at Berlin, Gilmour was not there only Waters. For that concert there were many quest singlers including:
Van Morrison
Brian Adams
Ute Lemper
Joni Mitchell
Scorpians
Sinead O'Connor
Cindy Lauper
Thomas Dolby
Tim Curry

The Wall - Live at Berlin - a DvD worth owning if you are a Floyd Fan!

And song #9 - lmao - Devo - they are my 4th cousins - what a crappy claim to fame I have.

[Vantarr]

Didn't they do that concert on Pay Per View? I vaguely remember watching it on TV for some reason.

Your claim to fame could be worse, you could be related to Starland Vocal Band. Mine is a guy named Frank Rose, who's my second cousin. He's a country singer who's biggest hit so far is a remake of Poison's song, Every Rose Has It's Thorn. I'm a musician also (used to be anyway) but sang mostly in Doowop groups.

I love music, especially most of the bands from the 70's and 80's era.

lmao

Sky rockets in flight

Scary aint it?

[Jovanus]

Yea, i could name half of those songs without playing them...

Easiest one was probably Imagine, that image looked like album art.
If not that one then Divo for sure... and I am sorry Quarum... did you ever get to meet him?

[quarum]

Jovanus - yes I have met both Bob and Mark at a big family reunion about 7 years ago, and when Devo came to KC back in the 80's I had back tage passes that my great uncle was able to get for me. lmao - kids in school thought I was cool and everyone wanted to go backstage with me. Easiest date I ever had - lmao

Not sure if the concert was on pay-per-view back then. I want to say it was but not 110% sure.
