My wife asked me to stop playing Wonderwall. I said maybeeeeeee...
-
#1 just had to be “Bohemian Rhapsody” for every reason listed.
-
The world got a little less bright the day we lost Freddie Mercury . He was a musical genius.
-
I know nobody cares, but The Lion Sleeps Tonight always gives me a good memory of painting my best friend's baby's room. I'm an illustrator, and it was a jungle themed nursery so I painted monkeys and parrots and all sorts of other animals everywhere, and over the baby's crib I painted the lyric "In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight...." That baby will be 14 in November. 🥲
-
I can always recognise "Come on Eileen", mainly by hearing the distinctive violins! 😁
-
Im amazed "Daaaayyoooo" didnt make the list
-
I didn’t know that Rebecca could sing like that lol
-
That “weeeeeellllll” she did was everything to me 😂 (3:35
-
My dad has a habit of starting out stories with, “Somebody…” and then taking a long pause… I ALWAYS jump in with “Once told me…” He didn’t get why…until I showed him this video🤣
-
This would have been SO much more satisfying if WM had played the single word, allowed us a moment or two to identify it, and THEN given us the background. Of course we know "Tiger" from "Eye of the Tiger." So why not play just "Tiiiger"?
-
Michael Jackson's Thriller, the opening of the song is good, though Vincent Price's monologue at the end is the best give away to Thriller even his laugh too
-
At any given time, the urge to sing "The lion sleeps tonight" is just a whim away. . . . . A whim away, a whim away, a whim away...
-
“Hello” from ELO’s Telephone Line.
-
The beginning Oooos from Don’t Worry Be Happy would also be considered recognizable.
-
The fact that the word "I" can be the most recognizable word in a song blows my mind! But it's so true! RIP, Whitney.
-
Honorable Mentions: *Gangsta's Paradise - Coolio -Cue the choir! *Day-O (The Banana Boat Song) - Harry Belafonte -DAAAAAY-O! *Mother - Danzig *Woman - Wolfmother *Shout At The Devil - Mötley Crüe -Shout! Shout! Shout!
-
"Hey hey Mama" and I immediately know 'Black Dog' is about to ensue. And I just wait for the riff to kick in.
-
I think another Queen song should’ve made the list; “Somebody to Love” clicks the moment you hear ‘can AnyBody’ ring out in unison.
-
"two" in Take On Me by A-ha.
