I had asked ten questions and here are the answers I got:
1) Why is Tweeter a boy scout?
My brother correctly corrected me on this. It should be when, not why. It was before she went to Vietnam, according to the Traveling Wilburys (Tweeter and the Monkey Man).
2) What was Billy's father given after the industrial accident (or at least, that is what they are calling it)?
I am surprised that if no one else, at least Joe would get this. He was given a brass watch, a cheque, maybe three weeks to live. Island of Souls by Sting.
3) What did we do on the floor in Belsize Park?
As
lovechilde knew and Marillion sang in the song Kayleigh, there was loving on the floor.
4) What did Billy Joel wear with iridescent socks?
No one got this. The song is Keeping the Faith. The complete list is matador boots, iridescent socks with the same color shirt And a tight pair of chinos, my shark skin jacket with the velvet collar and ditty-bop shades.
5) I bought you cufflinks. What did you give me in return?
Another point for
lovechilde. As per Joan Baez (or Blackmore's Night, if you prefer that version), you bought me ... something. (Diamonds and Rust)
6) London is drowning! Where do I live?
Joe got this. The Clash in their song London Calling say that they live by the river.
7) What is in the bathroom just below the stairs, according to John Lennon?
One more for Joe. There are Nazis, as per Nobody Told Me.
8) The super powers are always fighting. But what does the Mona Lisa do, as per Queen?
I expected Joe to get this, and he did. She just keeps on smiling. The Miracle
9) How much does it cost to see the trees in the tree museum?
lovechilde, my sister-in-law and my brother knew this. Joanie Mitchell. Big Yellow Taxi. A dollar and a half.
10) If the farmer takes a wife, what does the barber take?
Once again, Joe got it right. As per Spiñal Tap (Yes, I know it should be an umlaut, not a tilde, but there is no HTML character for an n with an umlaut) in their song Majesty Of Rock, the barber takes a pole.
And today's question is from the world of sitcoms. What is the common denominator between the British sitcom The IT Crowd and the American sitcom Community?
