Bilbo Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Watching University Challange last night, a question came up that I thought was a great idea for a thread that will run and run. The idea is to guess the album from the track listing - the only rule is that you must leave out any title tracks otherwise it's too easy (also, no googling as it takes the fun out of it). The answer sought is the band/musician and the name of the album. I'll kick it off with this... [color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]1. Title Track.... [/size][/font][/color] [color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]2. [/size][/font][/color][color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]For Wee Folks[/size][/font][/color] [color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]3.

Joeyfivebags Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Looks like Icelandic to me. so [color=#232321]Svartidaudi? or [/color][color=#232321]Sólstafir? or [/color][color=#232321]Angist? or Skalmold? Album wise wouldn't have a clue only album i know is Svartir Sandar and it's not that.[/color][/font][/size] Edited September 9, 2014 by Joeyfivebags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toneknob Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Not Sigur Ros nor Ikea. The correct artist is in Joey's list but without the album name the entry is disqualified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
