BCB Quiz: Guess which posters chose the song

Postby trans-chigley express » 08 Feb 2019, 05:45

Many years ago we compiled a CDR of songs chosen by each active poster at the time that they chose for personal reasons, not necessarily a favourite song but a song that had some personal connection. These songs were compiled on a CDR and distributed. I just chanced upon the collection the other day and had a listen through. Unfortunately the songs are only tagged with the poster's name without artist or title so it's difficult to figure out some of them but here are a few chosen by people that still post regularly that I've managed to identify. Have a guess at who you think chose them. If you're the person that chose them stay quiet or deliberately give a wrong answer. Feel free to give your opinion on the songs for added tension and argument.

1. Search and Destroy - Iggy Pop

2. Witchi Tai To - Harper's Bizarre

3.Hello - Shakespear's Sister

4.I Am The Cosmos - Chris Bell

5.Surfin'Bird - The Trashmen

6. Something Tells Me (Something's Gonna Happen Tonight) - Cilla Black

Iggy - Harvey K Tel. Because the silly bastard flew from Canada to London purely to see Iggy &The Stooges reform in 2005.
Harpers Bizarre - Toomanyhatz. Because Dave loves that kind of hippy shit.
Shakespears Sister - The Wright Profile. Because Matt likes his slice of 'pop'.
Chris Bell - Someone like Kath? No idea actually.
Trashmen - Gotta be Jimbo. He likes that kind of shit. (Or maybe Jumper K).
Cilla - The Slider. He loves alot of Cilla from that period.
Nicotine, valium, vicadin, marijuana, ecstasy, and alcohol -
Cocaine

TCE: For the ones you can't identify, maybe you could post the lyrics or something? I'm curious about this -- I don't remember it AT ALL!

I reckon DD is Shakespeare's Sister.

One of them is mine, but I won't give it away.

Hey, the show happened to be on my birthday, too. I had double the motivation!

But that wasn't my pick. I don't even remember if I was involved in this particular project.

I collated this one. A disk full of MP3's, one from each, but only identified by the owners user name.
I did publish the full reveal somewhere, but I have no idea where it is now.

I don't think I participated, but if I did, the only one there I might have possibly picked is the Chris Bell. But I didn't.

Would never have picked the Harper's Bizarre one, though I like them. "Kites are Fun" is more my speed as that stuff goes.

I think The Modernist is probably responsible for the Harper's Bizarre, on reflection.

Yes, for some songs googling snatches of lyrics is the only way to figure them out

You submitted a song for a the project even if you dont remember it. I'd completely forgotten about it myself until I chanced upon the disc.

Hmm... was it "I Am the Cosmos"? :)

"Search and Destroy" could be any number of BCBers. That was the big favorite at the Paris jolly-up jam session!
