It’s an honour system of sorts. If you are a BLEX (Blog Explosion) post your user name and I’ll send ya some credits. If you get one right I mean! ;-)

That’s the ticket.  If you play this game, and are a BE member, and you get one right I’ll send you 25 credits per song! The rules are pretty simple. Listen to the music clip then tell me the Title and Artist.  Yay for Music Fun!

Because I want people to play, I’ve edited the post! No extra titles or artists, and I’ve even matched the artists and songs, just to get you started! Yay! :-)

Ya know, if you REEEEALY wanted to you could plug all those song titles into iTunes and listen and see if you can match em up! That would be the way to do it, that’s for sure! :-)

So when I first got this Trivia Book - The Book of Answers - i posted some questions. As of today there are three that never did quite get the correct answer.  I figured I’d post em so yall could see why, even though many of those doppelgänger questions were nearly correct, or at least what I would have said; I didn’t mark them as being correct cause the BOOK said something different. Thank You to everyone who did play though! :-)

#3. How many Knights sat the Round Table?
Official Answer from the Book : The round table seated 150 Knights, with one place left open for the Holy Grail. The tables design was conceived by Merlin to prevent bickering about who would get places of honor.

#6 Who wrote “Mary had a little lamb”?
Official Answer from the Book. One of the earlier and most influential American magazine editors, Sarah Josepha Hale - in 1830. In addition to founding the first national women’s magazine, Godey’s Ladies’ Magazine, and successfully campaigning to make Thanksgiving a national holiday, she was inspired to write the rhyme by an actual case of a child’s being followed to school by a pet lamb.

#8 What is a doppelgänger?
Official Answer from the Book. Derived from the German words Doppel (double) Gänger (walker), a doppelgänger is the personification of another side of a characters personality. The apparition often represents a demonic side and my herald oncoming death.
