Hoopy Frood, congratulations on correctly guessing The Cure’s “Close to Me” for L-g-B14.

meyer also correctly guessed L-g-B8 as “If You Want to Sing Out” by Cat Stevens. Well done!

I’m not going to add any more, but I will repost my two remaining clues with final hints:

L-g-B15)[this band released their first LP this year, Karen O]
Linger…those others feel not affection for you in the same manner I do.

L-g-B16)[one of the great '60s bands, lesser-known song from the '70s, muswell hillbillies]
From birth to death, all we do is toil; however, this is uninteresting. If we were given this time to be alive, what is the point?

442

Hoopy Frood, right and right.

443

Because Flight Asked. I repost my 10. However, I’m going to post a solution or two, because I think I got a little obscure with my source material. If these are not solved in the next couple of days, I’ll post the answers. (New songs will not be answered.)

The old…

MRB1-FASTWAY:HEFT
“Oh my goodness” spake the homeless one,
“That which you offer unto others and that which you recieve
are completely dissimilar.
Consume what is set before you
Malevolent zephyrs tug your endoskeleton to putrecense
Malevolent zephyrs that will release, release me from bondage.”

MRB2 (this band lost their lead singer, renamed themselves after adding the singer of MRB10, and at least 1 of their other songs has been posted in this string)
“So I am controlling a personal automobile that is traversing along a major thoroughfare infamous for being a shopping mecca for the extremely wealthy, all the while having in my posession a firearm that combines short range with high lethality-the assembled personages have not personally witnessed the presence of a person of swarthy appearance since their progenitor’s progenitors purchased one.”

MRB3 (a great American band with a legendary guitarist)
“There are no humans perambulating the walkways of this city post-sunset but myself- the anarchistic, rebellious child of the atom!”

MRB4 (one of the biggest American bands of all time. You wanted the best…)
An urchin perambulated up to my personage one day and queried of me “Sir, I ask you about these various things, and those various things, and why is your verbiage so odd?” I, replying, vocalized “I am the apotheosis of all that is desirable, I am like unto a zephyr.”

MRB5 (lead singer notoriously ugly and notoriously cheap, lead guitarist founded band in MRB1)
“I was slain by Thanatos incarnate, I was slain by Thanatos incarnate!”

MRB6 (One of the biggest early British hard rock bands, with a colorful name, at least one of their songs has been posted in this string)
"Metaphorically sugary (innocent) young human offspring dwelling within the chronosphere, you will observe the union of two points along the shortest distance between them, said union sketched along the boundary between forces of light and darkness.

MRB7 (this band has a great video on MTV’s All things Rock)
“The woman vocalized “I will dispose of myself”
“These are two-dimensional representations of reality at a specific space-time”
I am unable to coerce you to remain in the vicinity
I cannot douse you from my epidermis
Beyond the metaphorical confines of the aforementioned representations is what you and I are excluding
Your neurons will not form nor maintain the neccessary synapses to recollect these events, at any rate-”

MRB8- YNGWIE MALMSTEEN: SHIPS ARE BURNED
“Presently, the oceangoing vessels of your people have been reduced to cinders and the force opposed to good has reappeared in your vicinity. It will fall upon you in a stealthy fashion, and there is naught you can do to avoid this fate.”

MRB9 (the lead guitarist was Satriani-esque before Satriani made the scene, this is also the first major band the lead singer was in-he has a solo career and was also in the band in MRB3)
"I analogize your physical beauty to a simple confection of crystalized sucrose precipitated from supersaturated heated H2O, young woman: quite solid, stimulating certain taste buds that detect sugary foods, and tending to cause adjacent objects to cling.

MRB10 (this comes from the solo album this singer released between the breakup of his first band and the band he joined made up of the remnants of the band in MRB2)
“This woman of whom I sing I percieve as omnipotent- ownership of any given whimsy is well within her grasp; the potency to alter that which she percieves is incorrect. I fail to comprehend what it is she desires of my presence.”

That was the old, here is the new…

MRB11
I am performing the sexual act with you, I am performing the sexual act with you, I am performing the sexual act with you with great skill!

MRB12
A shout of victorious pleasure erupts from my mouth! I have placed all assembled personages in a position analogous to having their king in jeopardy!

MRB13
In the post-vivos place and time of existence, you might have considerable difficulties
Presently, you are always present in places of (possibly illicit) enjoyment, but on the morrow, you will have to pay the penalty for your enjoyment, in the form of supernatural retribution

444

New ones:
OS13: For what length of time must I glide smoothly forward, while dividing my whole into the sum of its parts? No, my belief is that this is not negative. Opening my jugular with a sophisticated cutting device is all I engage in.

OS13: In a era when all has been created to be destroyed, my only desire is for you to comprehend the entirety of my being.

OS14: Presently, all female life forms inhabiting the region that was formerly known by what the Emperor Justinian called it, have had their address altered to something a little more Turkish.

445

Ah, shit, I can’t count!

446

MRB2 is “Down Rodeo” by Rage Against the Machine.

MRB10 is “Can’ t Change Me” by Chris Cornell.

I’ll admit, I got those by deciphering the clues and then going through their songs. No real credit for me.

Since two of my last three are gone, I’ll give you some more.

BJ9 - When you are engaged in a vacation, the verbiage to describe the sum of the ideas that come forth, and I wish to experience it as well.

BJ10 - There traverses my idol, observe him as he passes. There traverses my idol, he is unspectacular.

BJ11 - Just a pair of pleasant young males, never intending any damage, it defeats all that you have seen, for they have been at odds with law enforcement since their birth.

BJ12- I dominate the predawn atmosphere, the eradicator. Spawn, I shall arrive shortly, fatal bulk. I slink up the stairs and deck, terminal absence of light. Serum, young sheep’s serum adorned entrance, I shall bypass.

447

OS14 is “Istanbul, Not Constantinople” covered by They Might Be Giants and originally by, uh… a very talented group, I’m sure.

And I tried to come up with a way to do that one and couldn’t. Kudos.

448

I don’t know the band of the song, but the lyric here is “When everything’s made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am.”

My Hero, Foo Fighters.

449

Thanks, Brianjedi; (although I have to admit, it took me a while to make it work).

Close enough, Marley23. The band is the Goo-goo Dolls, the title of the track is Iris.

450

BJ9- Island in the Sun, Weezer?

451

Well, I lied.

L-g-B17) I am in possession of a device of transportation that rolls on two wheels. I will permit you to make use of this device. The transporter has a woven bucket-like fixture; a cup that, when struck, issues a chiming sound; and various bric-a-brac that improves its aesthetics. I would transfer to you ownership of said vehicle, however, the deed is not in my name.
Fairly easy.

452

Well, I’ll call it dead.

SKEE02 was Sick Things ~ Alice Cooper
And one last WAG:
Was BJ11 the Dukes of Hazzard theme song?

[sub]Don’t think I ever did see that show, but that line sounds familiar.[/sub]

453

Yes, Skeezix, that was in fact The Dukes of Hazzard theme (Good Ol’ Boys, or The Ballad of Hazzard County) by Waylon Jennings.

Also correct were the guesses of Island in the Sun and My Hero.

That leaves BJ6 and BJ12. Come on folks!

454

Lisa-go-Blind: is that Bicycle by Queen?

455

No.

456

Lisa-go-Blind – Pink Floyd, off of Relics… “Bike,” right?

457

MRB-12

Woo-hah!! Got you all in check - Busta Rhymes

458

Yup.

I’ve got a bike, you can ride it if you like, it’s got a basket, a bell that rings and things to make it look good. I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it.

459

I showed my father this thread last night, and he came up with this while cruising around in his UPS truck earlier today. (My apologies if somebody’s already intellectualized it…I don’t think it’s been done though).

OSF1: Perhaps my being will have altered coordinates when the next solar event takes place. My preponderance questions your cognitive ability to encode adequate reference pertaining to my predisposed existence.

[sub]And Lisa-go-Blind, I can’t believe I didn’t get your last one! Bike is one of my favorite songs![/sub]

460

To whom it concerns, “Down Rodeo” by Rage Against the Machine, “Can’t Change Me” by Chris Cornell, and “Whoo-Ha! Got you all in check!” by Busta Rhymes are all correct.

And personally, as much work as has gone into these (and everyone else’s) lyrics, I think its perfectly OK to solve it through going through the clues. Hell- didn’t you see how I and others questioned Capacitor and Terminator? Give yourself some credit!
