...So the only way I could figure out how to upload the clips was to a Google page where you have to download them to listen. Sorry 'bout that. Unless someone wants to upload them to their site for me? Or something ( Read more... )

8. I love that song, but no.

1. +2
5. +2
6. +2
7. +2 - it's an a capella cover of Kansas, so I'll accept either the cover or original artist.

4. Guns N' Roses - November Rain
5. Rufus Wainwright - Hallelujah
[Originally by Leonard Cohen, but I'm going to guess you've got the Wainwright version from Shrek]
6. Shakira f/ Wyclef Jean - Hips Don't Lie
7. Madison Project - Carry On My Wayward Son
[Everyone knows it's a Kansas song, but whose a cappella version this is has to be a shot in the dark]
8. Panic at the Disco - Nine in the Afternoon
9. The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen

I feel that people who go to school with you are at a significant advantage...

I'd also like to point out that most of the files you uploaded have track information. That is, when I download the clips and play them in WinAmp, it tells me the artist and title. [Clips 6, 8, and 9 are exceptions.] Still, I didn't look at that until after I made my guesses.

Yikes. Thanks for letting me know - I hadn't done this before so I didn't think that info would show up (especially since it doesn't in Media Player).

4. +2
5. +2
6. +2
7. +3 for getting the original and cover artists
8. +2
9. +2

As for people who go to school with me, they do have some advantage, because I share a lot of music with them, but at the same time they almost never listen to my music so they don't know a bunch of these.

Also I feel like I should get a point for "f/ Wyclef Jean", on account of he sings half the song. Plus I should also get a point for being awesome. And then three more points. Also, another point.
