I have to admit, I'm scratching the bottom of the barrel for these games, and again I had to dig up some What the hell? songs for this game that we're calling:
CUE MAJOR GENERAL TOM LEHRER
The titles of all these songs have something in common. Identify the song and artist for two points each, what each song has in common for another two points, and give me another song with artist that fits the theme. Hint - no Earth Wind and Fire here.
1. Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all
Or if he moves will he fall?
2. How, in every visible way, you shine
As if the stars in your wake align
Almost impossible to malign
3. I needed you, I knew I was in danger
Of losing what I used to think was mine
You let me love you till I was a failure,
You let me love you till I was a failure
4, I'm closing all the curtains
So don't you even bother
And they'm calling out the murder
But I'm underneath the covers
5. I'm so happy 'cause today
I found my friends
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, that's okay
6. I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean
7. Joan was quizzical; studied pataphysical
Science in the home.
Late nights all alone with a test tube.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
8. Sometimes late when things are real
And people share the gift of gab between themselves
Some are quick to take the bait
And catch the perfect prize that waits among the shelves
9. Time on my side
I got it all
I've heard that pride
Always comes before a fall
10. Wanting you the way I do
I only want to be with you
And I would go to the ends of the earth
Cause, darling, to me that's you're worth
11. Well I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time
But I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah
12. Well my name's John Lee Pettimore
Same as my Daddy and his Daddy before
You hardly ever saw grandaddy down here
He only came to town about twice a year
What do all these songs have in common?
What is another song with artist that fits the theme?

Cesium! - The Coppers (My 10th grade chemistry teacher had a comic hanging on the classroom wall that has to be one of the few comic references ever to Element #55. It showed a chemist standing outside his laboratory door pointing at a running thief who had the "55 Cs" square on the periodic table under his arms, and I can't remember exactly what the scientist was shouting, but it was a pun to the effect of "He stole my element! Cesium!" It still cracks me up to think about it 22 years later, but I can't for the life of me remember which comic strip it came from. It was a single panel, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't The Far Side. Couldn't find it on Google images... dammit! Oh well, back to the game....)

Kyrptonite - 3 Doors Down
When you used Sunshine Superman in the matching game, I quick skimmed the rest of the song to see if I could find this one. That match would be so cool, although I'm not sure what the general theme would be to find 11 others like it.....

Titanium - David Guetta f/Sia
This one was kind of too easy since it's a current hit, so I was going to use Mercury Blues. But then I thought there will probably be tons of mercury kroxes and I'm pretty sure that I'll have the only titanium krox so I went ahead with it...

Instead, I created this avatar of my squirrel pup named Sulphur. It is my 400th ES avatar since I uploaded my first one 4 years and 5 days ago. You need not scritch him (Sprots will take care of that), but you should do what he says. He's cute...[/spoiler]
