Name says it all. You give a snippet of a rock song and people try and guess the song its from and the band/individual who sings it. If no one gets it in the first 2 posts you post a hint. If no one for 5 after that you give it up. If you get it right you post the next song.
I'll go first- "I Know it's most unusual to come before you so. I found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know"
Not that hard, right?

Can we say that the person who answers correctly also posts the next snippet, thus giving the game some momentum?
Posted by A Drummer (Member # 9807) on :
Yeah, I'll add that to the first post to make it clearer.

seeded... seedy... point of view really... it fits so well with the rest of the verses that its hard to tell the difference... you obviously know the song though KarlEd, I think we have similar tastes in music.

By the way, I believe the actual lyric is "you can test it but it will not foam". 'taste it but it will not form' makes no sense.

Posted by Phillyn (Member # 12597) on :
Yeah, I'll give it to you SteveRogers, the song is actually called The Lightning Strike, but it's a 3-part song and those lines are from the third part, called Daybreak.
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
Ah, blast. My girlfriend listens to them sometimes, so that's the only reason I knew it. But I clearly am not personally familiar enough with it know the difference.
