FREE BEER!!!

 

Now I have got your attention:

 

Roll Up, Roll Up, Roll out the shock parade, Free falling from a stage, Performance and Cocktails and Roll up and shine

 

Yes, the 2nd most evil game has returned, where you get 40 short clips of introductions to 40 songs, some well-known, some not-so-well-known and some bloody hard.

 

This time there are 40 songs to guess, and it’s a community game, so help each other out to try to win the ‘big’ prize.

 

What to do

 

Download the zip file from either

Rapidshare

Sendspace

Or maybe

Megaupload

 

And guess away.

 

Good Luck :)

 

 

Disclaimer – The ‘Big’ Prize is a pair of tickets to see Man Utd at this year's FA Cup Final.. Wait, they are now useless, bugger. So in fact it isn’t really a big prize, or a small prize. And oh by the way, there isn’t any free beer.

*insert sad face*

 

After I spent the best part of 4 hours working on this :(

I'll have a go at this :nice:

 

Although my musical knowledge doesn't seem to be as extensive as some of the people on here, so it may take me a while.

Ok, some of these are really bugging me, I don't have a clue what they are but I really, really want to hear the rest.

 

So come on people, any more guesses?

Ooh, I'm in!!:D:D

 

EDIT: 2 of the links didn't work for me. Does that mean I'm too late?

Must have got deleted due to lack of use

Too bad. I guess making the thread so close to VH's release, some people missed it...including me.

 

I'm usually pretty good at these, but there's a lot of newer stuff in there I've never heard, and everyone's already guessed the ones I got. I'll give it one more listen though.
