April 20th – A song you like with a numerical title [Challenged by Mangø]

 

Decided to use this song from a band I was very interested in some years back, and this is one of their most recognised singles, taken from their 2003 album Room On Fire.

 

The Strokes – 12:51

Purely numerical, no words, although I would say punctuation symbols are allowed!

Well when I set this challenge my intention was only numbers, no words, but I guess I should leave it up to Wardy to specify whether he will allow the rules to be bent against my original intentions?

I don’t intend to interfere or set my own rules on others challenges. If unspecified at the time, then I leave it to the best judgement of the participants, the only time I will intervene and suggest a replacement is where the song was chosen previously in the event or the leading artist was used already on the same day. Other than that it’s open to everyone to decide what they go for.

As Mango has cleared up the confusions, here is my replacement:

 

I almost went for Paul Hardcastle but figured someone else may instead… glad you did Julian, it’s a great #1

Day 20 - Was literally just about to say 19, and that's after 19/2000 already went :lol: Pretty tough now but I'll go with this one, did always amuse me how they have such vivid memories and were apparently 'driving by' when they were 7 and 4 :kink:

 

 

April 19th - A song you like that is all about food

 

Danny Elfman - Violet Beauregarde

 

omg this song has been in my head for decades and I never remembered where it came from :lol: classic x

Day 20 - A song you like with a numerical title

 

Foals - 2001

I don't think a 'song with a numerical title' is particularly ambiguous, it literally means a song where the title is numeric. Therefore the likes of 'Summer of 69' and '99 Problems' doesn't fit this - as I specified above, I will allow punctuation, but not additional words.
