I always test these out on my wife, and she was getting mad at me because she thought the clips were too short. I said, "They are, and yet, the Popdose readers will get them right." And sure enough, you have.

All guesses so far are correct.

Close enough for jazz, though you're missing two of the verbs in the actual title to the U2 song. :)

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

10,000 Maniacs, U2, Def Leppard and Phil Collins are correct.

Hey, sis. Sorry, but Glass Tiger is incorrect

Ann · 5 months ago

And this one's a guess...

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Rufus, A-ha and Nirvana are correct.

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Whoops, Jerry, you just missed two of them. Tin Tin is correct, though.

Jerry · 5 months ago

Since I got beaten to the punch, let's try this one:

23. Send Me an Angel - Real Life

DRXL · 5 months ago

Now I am not so sure, but isn't 24 "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer?

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Real Life is correct.

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Sixpence None the Richer is incorrect. I'll admit that's a super-obscure band...which I'm writing up for Pop Goes the World next week (cough, shameless plug, cough).

drxl · 5 months ago

Clip No. 8: "Love Me" by Love and Rockets

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Love and Rockets is correct.

steed · 5 months ago

I know U2 was already used in #20 but I swear #12 is Sunday Bloody Sunday.

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Nope. #12 is the newest song of the bunch, and a logical follow-up to #11...

Ann · 5 months ago

22. Close to Me- The Cure

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

The Cure is incorrect.

Ann · 5 months ago

24. Bleed Like Me- Garbage

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Garbage is incorrect. I'll give you a hint, though: #24 is a band that Steve and I were really into when we lived together. Think local band...

Actually, two hints: Garbage is on this list somewhere, but it isn't #24.

Ann · 5 months ago

Can you update the full list?

Ann · 5 months ago

drcastrato · 5 months ago

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

That was a hard one, because it's almost all vocals.

Elaine · 5 months ago

#4 is Fix Me Now but I never heard the 1st (smaller) clip in it. I tried, after your hint! Oh well. :) This is my very first time playing btw.

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

The Ting Tings, the Who and "Fix Me Now" are correct. Welcome to the game, Elaine!

Hank · 5 months ago

22 is "Watch me bleeed" by Tears For Fears

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Tears for Fears is correct. One left. It's a cover, and it was released in 1990. That's all I'm telling you.

TheCloneRanger · 5 months ago

hmm.. I must confess I don't know... but...
the sax sounds like either sanborn or jim horn
the keys sound like elton john

didn't elton john record a cover version of "give peace a chance" for the 1990 box set?

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Not Elton John. The sax is by Kirk Whalum.

DMBindaATL · 5 months ago

#9 everything but the girl - take me

DavidMedsker · 5 months ago

Everything but the Girl is correct. Thanks for playing, everyone. Cover Me returns next week, but Name That Tune will return in two weeks.
