Driving Game (Part 88)

@ExtraMedium dupe from game 21 but I’m gonna play off of it.

@steeltoesenator I don’t pick a new start track on each new game, I just list the last play from the previous game to help you guys keep going. I was pretty sure this was a dupe when I saw it posted, but that was almost a year ago. I forgive 'em.

@ExtraMedium @steeltoesenator Sorry, i just figured out the problem, i searched “summertime” with a space after it & only the Springsteen song came up. Seems like “Find in page” couldn’t find its own ass with both hands & a map! Oh well, thanks for keeping it, even if only in honor of summer being just around the corner!

@ExtraMedium @ircon96 @steeltoesenator
I thought it looked familiar when I saw it posted… no wonder… I was the one that posted it! (and yes, it was about 11 months ago!)

@ExtraMedium @ircon96 @steeltoesenator
Just checked my post and see that the link is now borked due to copyright issues… so
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To make the connection clear, the singer is Jay Kay. Also, I can’t believe this is the first Jamiroquai track to hit the game!

@ExtraMedium This is the only Jamiroquai song you really need. But I too am surprised it took this long to show up.

those are some seriously flying fingers!

@chienfou Next to Appalachian Spring this is one of my Aaron Copeland favorites.

@steeltoesenator
was gonna post this one but could not for the life of me remember who did it, and google wasn’t forthcoming with the correct info. Tried 3 dog night, CCR, Grand funk… but NOT Guess Who.
damn those aging brain cells…

@emaw_az
just realized this post was from a “noobie”.
to (mis)quote E,L &P:
Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
We’re so glad you could attend
Come inside! Come inside!

Link is the singer for Bush, Gavin Rossdale.

@chienfou hmmm…yes, a bit of a stretch…but, I found a bridge…

@januarymick
thanks!

@steeltoesenator I believe this is the video I meant to post. Spent the afternoon wrangling middle schoolers on the next to last day of school so wasn’t really paying attention.

festival, a.k.a. carnival, since stretching is the theme of #88, perhaps?

@Yoda_Daenerys
nicely played… even if it is off the reply post version!
I think festival carnival is a legit connection, especially with the explanation.

@steeltoesenator what’s the connection here?

carnival merchants perhaps?

@Yoda_Daenerys Natalie Merchant. Merchant(s) not much of a stretch imo.

@steeltoesenator duh - sometime the obvious is the hardest to see

@januarymick my favorite cover of any song ever…totally retooled it and made it their own.

I already played the original of this song, but I really love this cover.

@metaphore
Alright I am confused… STN is NOT the artist, correct? Is Indigo the song or the artist? What about Kississippi? Where does that fall in the mix???

@chienfou Ska Toon Network is the artist. Kississippi is the original threat this one is a cover of. Indigo is the song title.
A mostly joke band that pretty much only does covers

@metaphore
ska TOON or TUNE? You spell it one way and the overlay on the video is spelled the other.

@chienfou I’m guess I’m just a mess with this post it is Skatune. I got messed up cuz it’s a play on cartoon network. And then the YouTube account has a space between ska and tune but the albums have it as a single word.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@metaphore
OK, I’ll fix it for the cheat sheet. Skatune Network right??
You got lucky because I tried to post a cheat sheet update for game 88 but the formatting seems to be borked so I pulled it down for now.

@chienfou going off their website, Skatune Network is correct.

@metaphore
\Thanks… already posted it but I think it will show up well enough in any searches.

@metaphore You played this in game 77 but ima gonna play off it anyway.

@steeltoesenator I knew I played a couple disco songs but thought it was other ones. I need to do better cheat sheet checking.
