Contest: AudioSplice v.6
What's an AudioSplice?
The Basics:
I've taken little snippets of a handful of songs and smashed them together into a sort of sonic puzzle for you to figure out. There is also a theme that links the songs somehow for you to work out, to help you along and make it a little more fun.
So what do you need to do? Listen carefully! Try to identify as many songs as you can, look for that link between them, and leave your guesses in comments. If no one is getting close after a couple of days, I may come back and leave a hint below…
Winners of book prizes will be the commenters who a) get the link and the most songs, and b) enter the most amusing guess at the link (even if they are wrong). And by amusing, I mean it amuses me. 😉
This Week's Puzzle:

The link is superheros.
1. Scott Pilgrim-Plumtree
2.???Flash by Queen-Queen songs are usually like a million songs in one, so who’s to say that this tidbit wasn’t hidden in there?
3. Ray Parker, Jr.-Ghostbusters
4.Black Sabbath-Iron Man
5.??? This is a funky, sneaky song…and what’s a good superhero story without a villain? Let me just throw in Method Man-The Riddler for good measure.
***I bet you had fun challenging us Millenials with those 70s and 80s songs.
edit: 1. is supposed to be Plumtree-Scott Pilgrim. Fun fact, this song inspired the graphic novel series.
Should I be signed in with typepad before I post a comment?
1. Scott Pilgrim: Plumtree
2. Purple Rain: Prince
3. Ghostbusters: Ray Parker, Jr
4. Iron Man: Black Sabbath
5. 8 Mile: Eminem
The link is that the song names are similar to the names of some popular films and tv shows.
Scott Pilgrim- Film- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)
Purple Rain: Film- Purple Rain (1984)
Ghostbusters: Film- Ghostbusters (1984)or the Tv Show Ghostbusters
Iron Man: Film- Iron Man (2008)
8 Mile: 8 Mile (2002)
Ah, I knew I should have gone with Purple Rain for the second, but I thought the link was comic book heroes/superheros
oh, Im not too sure myself, this one was a tricky one!
Ha! well, only two of the movies were older, Iron Man is an older song, but the movie was newer, so I thought that would help. 🙂
Also a good guess at a link! I like it…
