Ok, so I guess it was not interesting enough... sigh

sunshine of the long suffering...

Stella, it's all yours.



By the way, they were all involved in the filming of the movie The Conqueror in which many of the cast and crew got cancer.  This was attributed to being exposed to radiation on the set from atomic bombs that the US military had tested.



*I thought it was a nice tie in to the Bikini thread...

Your turn to post, Stella.




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/7/2009 10:49:17 PM)

Oh, I didn;'t know that.

Anyway... four songs...

'I don't like Mondays' by the Boomtown Rats
'Indian Reservation (The Lament of the Cherokee Reservation Indian)' by Paul Revere
'7 O'clock News/Silent Night' by Simon and Garfunkel
'The Killing of Georgie Part I and II' by Rod Stewart




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/7/2009 11:03:55 PM)

"I Don't Like Mondays" is about a murder... are they songs based on tragedies?




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/7/2009 11:30:53 PM)

No, not on tragedies.




pissthirstysub -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 4:54:00 AM)

They are biographical songs




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 6:32:39 AM)

Sorry, that's not it.




intenze -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 7:23:43 AM)

I am stuck, but I am going for a long shot....songs with news voices in them?




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 8:51:10 AM)

No, sorry.




dcnovice -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 11:38:57 AM)

Can you give us a hint, Stella?




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 3:34:47 PM)

Well looking at what the songs are about puts you on the right track, and it's what all the songs are about (have in common) which gives you the answer.




intenze -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 4:34:03 PM)

hate crimes?
Discrimination?




stella41b -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (7/8/2009 5:20:52 PM)

The answer I was looking for is that all the songs are about real life events.

'I don't like Mondays' is about a murder,'Cherokee Nation' is about the movement of this tribe of Indians from the south eastern part of the United States, 'The Killing of Georgie' was written about a friend of Rod Stewart and the events in '7 O'clock/Silent Night' actually took place.

My apologies. This one should be much easier.

Woody Allen
George Carlin
Alan Greenspan
Jennifer Lopez

All born in New York City?
I think I was thinking too hard about your first quartet Stella. It was a good one!
