Good this lot are bringing back memories of my youth. Big Grin

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 08:18

"Call me macho as i go psycho with a knockout blow to leave you k.o."

lav.loo - 2010-06-08 08:35

not sure about yours, is it cypress hill??

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 08:51

No not Cypress hill.

I did not want to make it too easy. It's from a British band from the 90's they are still going, saw them in concert 2 months ago. Cool

lav.loo - 2010-06-08 10:44

naah you got me there Nod Yes

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 11:20

Anyone else want to have a go at it before I reveal the answer?

2steppa - 2010-06-08 11:42

No idea I'm afraid. Stereo MC's ???

im.out.of.hear - 2010-06-08 11:45

Or is'nt it a Will Smith Tune ??

im.out.of.hear - 2010-06-08 11:48

Durrr course it is'nt i'm so stoopid..you said its an UK group..i'm such a Gorp !!

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 12:01

2Steppa you are good, you in the correct area.

It is Stereo MC's and Lost in music Smile

check out the link and 59 seconds in and you will hear the words i chose link

2steppa - 2010-06-08 12:31

Ahhh, that was a lucky guess, I had no idea of the track name though Big Grin


OK, another audio snippet to ID:

Clue :- 1980

HERE

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 12:36

I know this one it will come to me in a minute, all i'm getting in my head is "Searching" which is part of the title ?

is it a track by Luther Vandross?

2steppa - 2010-06-08 12:58

Good enough. Cool

It's Searching by Change.

*Luther on lead vocal.

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 13:00

i knew it cool Wink

lav.loo - 2010-06-08 13:14

ok good stuff guys here,s another from the early 90,s

i leave the empty,s on the doorstep to be filled by time, is he a wizard or a teacher? is he a friend of mine Big Grin good luck Wink

toocool4 - 2010-06-08 13:35

I have the answer to this one but I found it so I can’t use it. I only enter the ones I workout for myself.

To be honest I would not have worked this one out in a million years, so I’ll leave it for someone else to answer.

Like davebush said at the beginning no cheating and Googling. No No

2steppa - 2010-06-08 14:01

No idea whatsoever on this one, sorry.

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 02:20

ha ha thought this one would be tricky.
well guys it,s an early 90,s tune called, packet of peace, by Lionrock Wink

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 02:39

I did find that but like i said i could not use it, since i did not do it myself.

Okay here is the next one.

"we go together, it's the only route to take, we're on our way the only way"

See if you can work this one out?

2steppa - 2010-06-09 09:58

Yes yes!!!!

Natural Thing by Innocence

I liked 'Let's Push It' more but still a great track!

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 11:15

I’m impressed. Cool
It’s a wonderful Album I do like Let’s push it too and Remember The Day is a good track too.

davebush - 2010-06-09 11:30

heres one for you peeps,

once upon a time a dj`s task was just to play records, what more could you ask....

2steppa - 2010-06-09 11:50

Ice T - Reckless

From the breakdance soundtrack. Cool

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 11:55

i don,t think many people like music quizzes round here?? judging by the lack of people posting Big Grin
ok let,s try an keep it going between us guys.
i have another here, think classic 80s pop/reggae solo artist, one hit wonder Wink

you,re on a roll and now you pray it lasts,
the road behind was rocky,
but now your feeling happy...

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 13:01

i have this one somewhere can't remember that artist but the track is Break my stride

Just dug it out listening to it now Matthew Wilder Wink

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 13:25

Got another one for you guys, this one is massive

Here are the first lines on the track

"Slow it down

make it free baby like it is

just think about it

can you dig that"

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 13:36

if it,s not this then i have no idea, is it higher love by stevie winwood?? bet im miles out Nod Yes Big Grin

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 13:38

Not Stevie Winwood.

Was i correct on the Matthew Wilder - Break my stride?

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 13:42

2steppa - 2010-06-09 14:03

2steppa - 2010-06-09 14:07

OK, i've stuck another one up...

Try this, 80's band, New Romantic era mainly but this is a little later...

HERE

davebush - 2010-06-09 14:33

peeeezy human league.............altogether now, were only human

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 14:38

that would be the human league with only human, great track Wink

davebush - 2010-06-09 14:38

try this 80`s pop/dance track........

im lookin for someone to share my life, i better move on down the line

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 14:41

That was too easy 2steppa you all still need to solve this one

"Slow it down

make it free baby like it is

just think about it

can you dig that"

Sorry davebush yours is throwing me for now, it's not coming to me yet

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 14:46

well im all out on yours and daves track Confused

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 14:50

Mine is British a Man and a woman. The words come from the only really good track they did. By the way it was in the 90's a big club track, you will kick yourself's when i tell you cos i'm sure you will all know it.

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 14:55

come on tell us my heads burn,t out Nod Yes

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 15:01

Let's wait till tomorrow, 2steppa is good at this he may know Smile

i'm still trying to work out davebush's one but not sure i'll get this one as i don't think i have this track Confused

lav.loo - 2010-06-09 15:05

Cool

2steppa - 2010-06-09 15:05

LOL I wasn't sure whether that Human League was tricky or not - it wasn't one of their early 80s biggies like Mirror Man but a later Jam & Lewis R&B track really.

Anyway, pondering those last two at the moment..

toocool4 - 2010-06-09 15:16

davebush it kind of sounds familiar go on give us a clue or 2 Wink

davebush - 2010-06-09 22:38

ok a couple of clues.......
female solo artist.......another word for looking..........her first name is a nut........................you should get it from that

2steppa - 2010-06-09 23:28

Hazell Dean - Searching Razz

toocool4 - 2010-06-10 01:15

I knew it sounded familiar, I know the song well. To be honest I don’t think I would have got it.

Anyway looks like no one is going to get mine so here goes

It’s The Masterplan by Diana Brown & Barrie K Sharpe
