So, did I catch you out on that one then? Nobody got all the answers correct, in fact only two players answered at all… Kudos then to Spnnrn and Mike (daddyo) for knowing that the title of the song was “We can work it out” from The Beatles. No-one recognised the singer in the clip, [...]

OK, I’m taking this game a step further today. The clip at the end of the post is a cover of a song made famous by somebody else. I want you to Name the Original.
But first lets recap on last weeks Name That Tune…. The Aritst I was looking for was Peter Frampton and his [...]

Well my problems with access to the Internet turned out to be more serious than I thought, and I still don’t have full access, but it’s enough I think to carry on with Name That Tune, even though I must tell you that I still dont have access to the statistics, so there’ll be no [...]

I’ve got a full weekend coming up with the Open Air “Jubilé” concert in the Stadtpark Hamburg tomorrow (starring the Scorpions, as well as other legendary German greats Inga Rumpf (ex Frumpy) and Peter Maffay, as well as my very own Caro) and the dress rehearsal this evening, so I’ll just shoot one out for [...]

As you can see by the table of the Top Ten, things are all very tight at the top of the “Name That Tune” league
I get the feeling though that the next song might just sort this out a little… either it will be a gimme (as successful single this year in Europe) or it [...]

Well, judging by the comments this time, not everyone appears to like Supertramp. But this band did play a big part in my growing up (did I ever do that? lol) The song always reminds me of recording a live gig from Supertramp on the TV with my first every cassette recorder years and years [...]
