Music Group Community Group
Wow, I'm so sorry guys! I haven't been active in this group for what seems like years. I just don't get on here like I used to. But, I've decided to get back on here and update a few things. So, I welcome everyone to the music group :)
If you've been following the previous thread that I started you've probably figured out by now that I wish VH1's "My Generation" (the game show, not the series that preceded it) lasted longer than it did. Memories of it are coming back, and I concede at this point I'm trying to find ways to keep myself occupied.
So far I've done song mash-ups based one of the show' speedrounds (there were several during the run and they rotated). For this game, I'm going to use of the show's musically inclined categories....okay, I'm lacking on originality here, but hey.
The category is Gimme Three Steps. I'm going to name three songs by an act, and your job is to name the act. It could be a solo artist or a group. I will try to use the best known song by that act to keep matters fair. Then feel free to post some of your own.
For instance, if the songs I gave you were:
Ballroom Blitz
Fox on the Run
Love Is Like Oxygen
The act I would be looking for is Sweet. I hope that makes sense to everyone.
Now try one on your own. We've got:
Feels Like the First Time
Urgent
Blue Morning, Blue Day

I recently heard a great 2007 song the other day, "Falling Slowly" because it popped up in my newsfeed, accompanied by the sad news that the male singer, Glen Hansard, just died in a motorcycle accident. I learned that the song won an award and was featured in an indie movie called Once. I just watched it, and it's really good. They made it in 3 weeks on a $100,000 budget. It's streaming on...
Elton John?
You are right, Rod Stewart.
I did not know there are about a million Forever young songs!
Next up
Book Of Dreams
57 Channels (and nothin' on)
Fire
Elton John was correct!
(I may have been exaggerating when I said a million, but there are a lot of "Forever Young" tunes out there and they're not all just covers of the same song either...)
Okay I'll admit that I had to cheat on yours because I didn't recognize the first two at all and there are a couple of different songs called "Fire" so that didn't narrow it down enough for me... so Bruce Springsteen is it?
Next set -
Allentown
Say Goodbye to Hollywood
All About Soul
Yes it's Bruce!
Yours is Billy Joel, will I will base on the Allentown song, if correct, love that song too.
Next-
Only The Lonely

Yours I believe would be The Motels? I only know the first two songs but I'm pretty sure that is the group that did them, assuming I'm thinking of the right two songs that is.
Ok... trying another trio of songs:

Break It Down Again
Head Over Heels
I'm going to guess and say Tears for Fears?
