Just a simple game of trivia.

RULES
Try to keep the questions based on popular artitsts. (no underground)
Don't surf the web to find hard questions. (keep is somewhat simple)
Don't surf the web to find answers. (that's cheating)
The person who gets the right answer gets to ask the next question.
If 3 answers are wrong then the same person gets to ask another.

I'll start things off.

ozzy isn't even in his real name. His real name is something like John Michael or something close to that. he got the nickname ozzy when kids shortened his last name to ozzy.

"An angel's smile on your lips, blood red nails on your fingertips" My all time favorite band.

I want the name of the band and the name of the song please: (think circa late 1980's early 1990's).

Since the answer is a little unclear, I checked it out.
I am not taking any credit for this answer.

"Innuendo" Is the last album with Freddie and the last track is in fact "The Show Must Go On" But I can't find anything stating that song is the last song recorded.
After Freddie's death, the remaining memebers made another album with Freddie's vocals.
"Made in Heaven" is Queen's final studio album, released in November 1995. After Freddie Mercury's death in 1991, the remaining band members John Deacon, Roger Taylor and Brian May worked with Mercury's pre-recorded vocals to create the last Queen album with all four members having contributed.

Track listing

It's a Beautiful Day" (Mercury)
Made in Heaven" (Mercury)
Let Me Live" (Mercury/Taylor)
Mother Love" (May, Mercury)
My Life Has Been Saved" (Deacon)
I Was Born to Love You" (Mercury)
Heaven for Everyone" (Taylor)
Too Much Love Will Kill You" (May/Musker/Lamers)
You Don't Fool Me" (Mercury/Taylor)
A Winter's Tale" (Mercury)
It's a Beautiful Day (Reprise)
Yeah" (Queen)
Untitled" (Queen)

"Mother Love" was the last song Freddie Mercury recorded and co-wrote with Brian May, who on his website discussed the writing process he and Mercury had (writing both separately and together, and conscious of the nature of the song and the lyrics). Brian May sang the last verse since Mercury wasn't able to do so anymore, as Mercury was suffering from bronchial pneumonia (which ultimately resulted in his death).

So I believe that sums it up.

But just to keep the ball rolling.....

What's the next line to these lyrics?

Talk about things that nobody cares.............

It is the same guy from Craker, but it was his band before that.

beethoven (sp?) something or other... I don't remember the whole name but maybe this will help someone who does... Damn i was so close.

I usually do really well with music trivia.

Post by **Ultra Magnus** » Fri Aug 24, 2007 7:36 am

Close enough. The name of the band is Camper Van Beethoven!

Your turn, Mominator!

This musician wrote the song about his daughter. She is a hugely successful jazz musician.

He married "above him".

Who is he?

Bonus what is his daughter's name.
