August 7
Back on Tuesday and Joey's looking for an "All-Star" to take
the Singing Bee crown and perhaps $50,000 to go with it.
Round 1:
- 1977, The Commodores, "Brickhouse"
Band: "She's a brick... house / she's mighty mighty..."
#77: "Just lettin' it all hang out." RIGHT!
- 1985, Simple Minds, "Don't You
(Forget About Me)"
Band: "Will you stand above me / Look my way, never love me ... "
#108: "Rain keeps fallin', rain keeps fallin', down down
down...." RIGHT!
Halfway home...
- 2003, Jet, "Are You Gonna Be My
Girl"
Band: "Well, I could see you home with me / But you were
with another man, yeah / I know we ain't got much to say..."
#154: "Are you gonna be my girl!" NO!
#22: "Before I let you go away,
yeah!" Sorry...
#91: "But I'ma love you anyway." Nice try...
#39: "Before I let you get away, yeah!" YEAH!
- 1990, The Black Crowes, "Hard
to Handle."
Band: "Boys and things will come by the dozen / That ain't
nothing by drugstore lovin' / Pretty little thing let me light
your candle..."
#154: "'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle." We have four!
Round 2, Karaoke Showdown:
First round, it's #77 Randy
(Nashville) vs. #108 Angel (Philippines).
- 1982, Culture Club, "Do
You Really Want To Hurt Me?"
Randy gets 12. Angel needs 13 to move on.
- 1964, The Drifters, "Under the
Boardwalk"
Angel gets 13. He's moving on!
Next round, its #39 Ross (all
over Florida) vs. #154 Heather (Houston).
- 1967, The Doors, "Light My
Fire"
Ross... sucks out. No really, he even threw in a panic jig. He's
got two. Heather needs three. Focus...
- 1969, Creedence Clearwater
Revival, "Bad Moon Rising"
Heather's got one... two... three, four, five! She's got eight
total for the win.
Round 3, Sing the chorus:
- 1998, Goo Goo Dolls, "Iris"
Angel: "And I don't want the world to see me / 'Cause I don't
think that they'd understand / When everything's made to be
broken / you just want...".
Correct: "I just want you to know who I am."
This is for Money, Heather.
- 1984, Stevie Wonder, "I Just
Called to Say I Love You"
Heather: "I just called to say I love you / I just called to say
how much I care / I just called to say I love you / And I mean
it from the bottom of my heart." WINNER!
Now the hard part begins, as we head
to... The Final Countdown...
Ray: "It's the Final Countdown!"
Seven songs, seven missing
phrases. For each one you get right, you get $5000. Get five,
and you just made $50,000 cash money. Get a song wrong, it's a
strike. And just like baseball, the Feud, or a trip in 1G12 in
New York, three strikes and you're out!
Song #1:
"Oh baby baby, the reason I breathe is you / Boy you
got me blinded / Oh baby baby, there's, nothing I wouldn't
do..."
Heather: "To dance in this
miniskirt." ... Nope. Correct: "It's not the way I
planned it."
(1999, Britney Spears, "... Baby One More Time") |

Song #2:
"And I got more rhymes than there cops in the Dunkin' Donuts
shop, / Sure 'nuff I got props / From the kids on the hill /
And my mom and my pops / I come to get down / I come to get
down..."
Heather: "So get out your seat and jump around!"
Heather's on the board!

Song #3:
"You remind me of a girl that I once knew / See your
face whenever I, I look at you / Wouldn't believe all of the
things she put me through...."
Heather: "Come on baby, let's make
love..." Hahaha... no. "That is why I just can't get
with you."
(2001, Usher, "U Remind Me") |

Song #4:
"Everywhere I go, people stop and they see / 25 years
old..."
Heather: "My mother's got a great
big soul..." That's three strikes and the end of the
line for you, Heather.

The correct answer was "My
mother, God rest her soul". But she still takes away $5000.
And Ray takes us out until next
time.
