Silliness Quiz - Page 394

Since orlok has already won the quiz, and this answer is a little obscure, I'll just give the answer. That we can get to our next quiz.

The sculptures are Sue Webster and Tim Noble. Check out the images on Google for some of their work (the humping rats rather stands out).

I've never heard of them or seen any of their work. Really clever stuff.

As the tone of the last few days has largely been multi-part questions, here's another. Can you identify the songs (and artists for an extra point) that the following lyric snippits come from?

1. He thought he was the only one

2. But I do

3. His cheap wife had never left town

4. He let go a laugh, he let go a laugh

5. It worries me to say, I've never felt this way

6. The rain was unstoppable

7. Tryin' to make a devil out of me

8. Let some air into this room

9. Love isn't always on time

10. Hang myself when I get enough rope

11. They wouldn't have you in the Ma Fi A

12. Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere

I love that song. The one I grew up listening to was done by War, but Smash Mouth did a version too.

And I'm going to humiliate myself:

5. I Think I Love You, by The Partridge Family.
