Im fairly certain that was Prince.


if correct, my question is: behind every great singer there is usually a great guitar player. I'll name three guitar players, you name the singers they play/played for.

Denny Lane
Steve Stevens
Randy Rhoads

(this shouldnt take too long)

Ok, I'm 99.9% sure I'm correct, so here goes:
I'll stick with the I'll name the guitarist, you name the band idea, but I think I'll keep it to one so we don't get partial answers.

Glenn Tipton- should be pretty easy

here's an easy one:

Blinded by the Light was a huge hit for Manfred Mann's Earth Band in the late seventies. What mega-star wrote the song originally?

I yahooed to find the answer............. was very surprised to see who it was..... needless to say I am WRONG WRONG WRONG....

God of Thunder

You were suprised to find out it was actually Bruce Springsteen eh?


Here's a possible stumper from the 80's.

This band fromed in the early 80's and released their only album in 1983. They broke up and half of the band formed Frozen Ghost and the other half formed Alias.

The kicker is that by the time both of those bands had pretty much failed as well, their only hit single from the 1983 album reached number 1 on the charts in 1989.

I hope I made that clear enough, but here it is re-phrased.

Name the band (and song if you can) that recorded a song in 1983, but didn't hit the top of the charts until 1989.

Yeah I was surprised to fgind it was Springsteen. For some reason I always tie Bob Seeger to that song.

Won't even try this it is my era but I haven't a clue.

God of Thunder

Actually, you probably do. If you lived in the 80's I'm quite certain you've heard the song. It was played at every school dance and wedding reception there was. That's partially why it hit the charts so many years later. DJs refused to let the song die.

Nope

I don't even think that hit the top 10.

Sheriff "When I'm With You"

If this is correct my question for you is this ::

In 1992 there was a hit song whose video featured a cameo appearance by John Malkovich. Name the song and the artist of the song/video in which he appeared.

Very good ladyadmin.

I figured I had a stumper.

That had to have sucked for the guys in the group to have finally had a number one song, six years after they had alredy broken up, re-formed new bands and broken them up as well.

The record company pressured them to regroup to promote the single, but by that time, why bother?



As for your question, no clue.

Well, I bite, but not too hard. But, that's another thread.

Looks like you have a stumper ladyadmin, ask another one.

Thing of it is, I think I can see the video in my head, but I can't place it.

I'd be interested in reading that thread when it comes out
_____
The answer is::
Annie Lennox "Walking On Broken Glass"

Next question::
Which animated supergroup released their debut album in 2002 called "G-sides"?

I googled to verify my answer...
so, next question:

Which American pop/rock band is named for an X-Rated movie?
(if there are more than one, I'll accept alternate answers)

perripken

I'm gonna take a wild guess just from the name:
Third eye blind?

Ok, sorry for the delay folks, but I had to leave for work and couldn't get ask a question at the time.
Here goes:

Hey, one I know!!!

He was in the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band for a brief period before going solo.

OK, this one should be easy enough, if you know your 80's.

No Doubt's current single "It's My Life" is a cover song originally done by what 80's band?

Yeah, but I like the way they re-did it. Suits her voice pretty well.

I know yours, but will allow others to input.
