Match the lyrics to the artist, III

Wherein because this is sooo much fun


I thought about doing something else, but need to see more of an effort on your part.

As before, 1 point for matching artist to lyrics and an additional point for the title of the song. So far justkim is at the head of the leader board with 2 points, with everyone else jostling around in the mud with ZERO.

  1. Well she looked at me, and I, I could see
    That before too long I'd fall in love with her.
    She wouldn't dance with another (whooh)
    When I saw her standing there.
  2. Please, please me, whoa yeah, like I please you.
    Please, please me, whoa yeah, like I please you.
    Please, please me, whoa yeah, like I please you.
  3. All you need is love. All you need is love.
    All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
  4. I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me.
    She showed me her room, isn't it good, norwegian wood?
  5. Though I know I'll never lose affection,
    for people and things that went before.
    I know I'll often stop and think about them,
    in my life I love you more
  6. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
    There, beneath the blue, suburban skies,
    I sit, and meanwhile back
  7. Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been,lives in a dream,
    waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door.
  8. Why don't we do it in the road?
    No one will be watching us
    Why don't we do it in the road?
  9. It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog,
    It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log,
    But when I get home to you I'll find the things that you do,
    Will make me feel alright
  10. Cry baby cry
    Make your mother sigh
    She's old enough to know better
    So cry baby cry.

I'm beginning to feel like Alex Trebek doing Celebrity Jeopardy:

Okay, let's just move on to Final Jeopardy. And the category is.. you know what? I tell you what, just write a number. Any number, any number and you win. [ music starts ] We'll accept any number, any number at all.. a one, or a two, or a three, or how about a four? It's that simple, I know you can do this.

I'm new to the game. Do you award prizes?

If by prizes you mean actual physical objects you can hold and caress, then no.

But each correct answer is worth an 1/8 point good will that may be redeemable towards warm regards at the next swap meet.

Oh. Hi, Leo! Didn't recognize your handle/tag/name. This Thursday's quiz should be an audio quiz -- see 10 songs in 60 seconds for an example.

I say should because looking at the never couple of evenings I may not have time to finish splicing everything together.
