Rich and Shelley's contest

Post by bovine »

Before I say anything, let me just remind you that Rich and Shelley do not want us sharing results. I should hope we would all follow that both to stick by the rules as well as to have fun :nod:

With that said, I was just wondering how far all of you got so far. I have the first 25 and I'm fairly certain that they're right. Still need to work on the last 27 though. Does anyone know about how many people got it right the last time they did a similar contest?

Thanks for your input but hints are :evil:

Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

so easy

done in 15 minutes
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.

I did it all in one foul swoop. Only had to look up one of them.

And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Yeah, I think I got them all too. Got a little hung up on the 26th clip. I was left with that clip at the end (I skipped it) and it definatly wasn't the song that was left over. I did figure it out though!

Tougher how? I mean it was set up the same way, right? Was it like shorter clips?

I missed the most obvious ones. The worst thing was when I could sing the entire song and couldnt think of the name! :evil:

It took me like 3 hours, but i finally finished.

Hundreds of people are going to get them all. It was too easy, though the other one sounded too hard. Maybe the reason they made this one so easy was because they wanted at least one person to get them all, unlike last time.

Instead of making the clips shorter AND putting some songs twice or not at all, they should of done one or the other.

Yeah, I don't think I am entering this one. I enter every contest and I don't win, even if i have all the answers correct. Anyways, this prize seems shabby compared to the amazing stuff they had in the past. I am spoiled by Rich and Shelley.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I entered even though I'm sure I'm not going to win.

I think i even messed up the order when I was filling in the list from the paper I had written them on.

I already have two of the things anyway...
