Driving Game (Part 99)
2Welcome to the Meh Forum Driving Game!

Basic Rules
Connect a new song to the previously played song by name, musician, musical group, or concept. Try to use the format “Artist - Song Title” when possible. Avoid repeats, and do not make two plays back to back.
To avoid repeating past songs, it’s best to always do a quick search of the current thread as well as checking in the official Driving Game Cheat Sheet before making your play.

Picking up from:
Digable Planets - 9th Wonder (Blackitolism)
@ExtraMedium and you wondered in Pt. 1 if people would think this was a dumb idea…
The Sugarhill Gang - 8th Wonder
/youtube Fleetwood Mac - Seven Wonders
Okay, it’s a dupe, but I HAD to put it here!
@Kyeh Mega points if you get my link to your dupe.
@ExtraMedium The Colossus
was one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World!
The New Pornographers - Colossus of Rhodes
well looky there… the cheat sheet is (finally) UTD!
Just posted 97 and 98
(Thanks for your patience)
Me First And The Gimme Gimmes - Country Roads
@chienfou You’re the keeper of the cheat sheet. Surely you had to know John Denver was a dupe! I’ve got your back with an edit though.
@ExtraMedium
I checked too, honest… turns out I got screwed by that pesky little comma thing in there!
(Thanks for bailing my ass out!)
@chienfou @ExtraMedium
Hah, I wondered about that … but not enough to check.

@chienfou Yes, but Micky Finn was in his band in the '70’s, so there is a connection!

Has this seriously not been played yet?!
I looked several times with several iterations of artist-title but I still feel like it must be a dupe!
@Kyeh
Wow! You are right! Closest was one of Rhiannon Giddens’ songs YOU played in part 84…
The US Marine Band - The Royal Welch Fusiliers (by John Philip Sousa)
because that’s where Rhiannon is from…
@chienfou Donchu mean “Welsh?”
@Kyeh nope… that’s how he (and they) wrote it!
https://www.rwfmuseum.org.uk/index.php
That was a TIL moment for me too!
@chienfou Oh, how weird!
@chienfou Hey, I’ve been to Caernarfon Castle!
@Kyeh
that’s cool. Never been to Wales, but hope to get there some day (and when I do I plan to bring a surplus of vowels since they seem to be lacking there!) I really want to go to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch even if I can’t pronounce it!
@chienfou
Unlike in French where you can have words with no consonants! Oui, eau.
I loved Wales.

@metaphore
so who’s on fire here… Alex or Alexis?
@chienfou Alexis. I recently had to look it up because someone mentioning the band pronounced it “Alex is” and it was my first time hearing it that was. I had to know who was wrong.
