We're All Rather Daft

I'm back with another clue to the game! The sound is kinda low on this one, so go ahead and turn your volume up.


Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger by Daft Punk (http://youtu.be/gAjR4_CbPpQ)


This is one we should all know as well. Daft Punk is a French electronic music duo that came to fame in the 1990s because of their great dance/club style beats. Since their start, they have been quite successful, releasing several albums that have been in top charts worldwide. They're even the ones that scored the film Tron: Legacy in 2010 (great movie btw)!


Now I feel a little bit sorry for you guys out there trying to guess the answer, so I've decided to drop you a big clue into the right direction. However you decide to guess, the answer to this whole game is going to be in YouTube somewhere. From that, you should be able to figure it out. It's all a matter of which now. ;-P

Feeling Blue?

Alright it is time for yet another clue to the little game we're playing! Remember now, look back at the last two posts (Cut Deep and What's Perfect?) and compare them with this one to try to figure out how they are related! Don't worry if you can't get it. I don't expect anyone to get it until the end of the week with the last post. :-P


Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65 (http://youtu.be/68ugkg9RePc)


Now Eiffel 65 should be well known to many of you, especially if you're a nineties baby! They are a eurodance group from Turin, Italy formed in 1998 and are most known for the song I have here. The song actually reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. as well as number one in many other countries. Amusingly, the band's name was chosen randomly by a computer program and the "65" at the end was accidentally added by someone writing down a phone number.

Cut Deep

I bet you're ready for the next clue in my game eh? Well no more waiting, here it is!


The First Cut is the Deepest by Sheryl Crow (http://youtu.be/dK9eLe8EQps)


Sheryl Crow, as many of you may know, is a popular American "country rock" singer with a nice nine Grammys under her belt. She has also sung many duets with such artists as Mick Jagger, Michael Jackson, and Eric Clapton. Pretty great huh? This particular song is her version of a song of the same name written by Cat Stevens in 1967. It is actually considered one of Sheryl's biggest hits, staying on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 36 weeks!


Now remember, the whole purpose of this game is to figure out how the songs are related. And like I said, it won't be in any normal way, trust me. ;-P
