h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think it's sweet when you go all ic on us, Mr. Herald!

Uh oh! I was caught asking Guardian Angel type questions
of someone other than my Guardian Angel by my Guardian Angel!

Not at all. You were asking a Guru Guru type questions.

Nah ... those could have been ACE or GURU questions too ... and Ottox is all 3!

Show off!

Sorry for replying.

There's no way I can do anything right to anybody it seems.

Your answer was quite welcome! I'm just jealous for all the titles you have acquired here.

I'm just QuoteQuiz QuizMaster and Harvey's pal!

If it was up to me, you were welcome to have that Herald title. I've had no fun with that for a long time.

And I've often thought about handing in my Ace badge. Take that too, if you want.

Nah! They all look better on you!

I'd just look with them

(well sillier than usual)

Ottox, you've got a lot of knowledge, and you're very good at sharing it! People appreciate it. I know I do! I've learned a lot from you!

Pick a winner of each of the following match-ups by the end of the day Friday:

Bracket 1
16.Love is the Drug – Roxy Music
7.Johnny B. Goode – Chuck Berry

Bracket 2
1.Satisfaction – The Rolling Stones
14.Bridge Over troubled Water – Simon and Garfunkel

Bracket 3
1.Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley
3.Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

Bracket 4
9.Brass in Pocket – The Pretenders
14.Once In a Lifetime – Talking Heads

Then everyone's votes will be tabulated and we'll come up with our "Final Four"!

Thanks

Hi Ottox I was hoping to get your votes before I counted since you were so involved all along. So I recind the deadline until I hear from you or end of day Sunday.

Take care!

The most difficult part of staying away was that I couldn't vote here.

Love is the Drug
Satisfaction
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Once In a Lifetime

I'm a loser...

Were you being held hostage?

Thanks for the vote! You broke a critical tie in bracket 4.

Glad you got in before the final count I've been held up at work!

Thank you again!

Here's FINAL FOUR!!! This round is the same as the last with everyone voting between the 2 semi-final match-ups below:

SEMI-FINAL 1
7.Johnny B. Goode – Chuck Berry
1.Satisfaction – The Rolling Stones

SEMI-FINAL 2
1.Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley
14.Once In a Lifetime – Talking Heads

I hope your favorites are left!!!

Next round the Championship Match!

Anyone who has been looking at my last post should be able to tell what I'll vote for!

My favourites haven't been here for days and days. Good taste seems to be missing in too many of the other threads!

So.... Satisfaction and GO TALKINGHEADS! GO! Once In a Lifetime!








How the can Johnny B. in the semi-final when there were so many great songs when we started????

I've been wondering that for a few rounds myself???

My favorites are also gone.

Thanks for your semi-final votes!

HERE'S THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!!!

After 62 matches the final two left standing are a bit of a surprise to me, being that they are both from the very beginnings of Rock n Roll in the 1950s. There is an arguement for many other songs to be here other than these, but somehow it seems fitting that two of the founding fathers should face off for the title.

So here goes-

Johnny B. Goode – Chuck Berry
vs.
Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley

Thank you for making this so much fun!

Tragic.





That's all I can say.




Who *are* these people?



*leaves the quiz shaking his head*










*from a distance can be heard: Oh well, of those two it *must* be Elvis*

*straining to hear with his tinitus affected 42 year old ears*

You've swell elf lips?

Well thanks. Yours are fairly hobbitish.
