      This is a revival of an old thread, either from this board or the old one, so some of you will be familiar with the premise. For those that aren't, the rules are simple:
      It's like the "who's that pokemon?" segment of the pokemon tv shows (don't pretend for a second you never watched one), only instead of poke-shadows you get a picture from which you have to guess the name of a (RBF) song. Whoever guesses it gets to upload the next one and so on and so forth. If it turns out to be too easy we can upsize to all songs by all artists.

      So, without further ado:

      I don't see Adam's picture. Since the filename is direwolf.jpg and it comes from a horror movie site, I'd expect it to be "Cannibal". But it's not cause it's

      HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF!

      (I'm not a psychic, I found a picture with the same filename on some Spanish website)

      Lemme think about the next one.

      Having nothing better to do I wikipedia'd Galileo and I found this paragraph:
      "A biography by Galileo's pupil Vincenzo Viviani stated that Galileo had dropped balls of the same material, but different masses, from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to demonstrate that their time of descent was independent of their mass.[83] This was contrary to what Aristotle had taught: that heavy objects fall faster than lighter ones, in direct proportion to weight.[84] While this story has been retold in popular accounts, there is no account by Galileo himself of such an experiment, and it is generally accepted by historians that it was at most a thought experiment which did not actually take place"
      Which makes me think "Til I Hit The Ground".

      Adam has lost major points from me. You are no longer allowed to enjoy comedy shows.

      The show is called Perfect Strangers about a guy who moves in with his wacky cousin from a foreign land and crazy hi jinx ensue. It's a sitcom that used to air on TGIF and is regularly known as the penultimate example of cheesy comedy.

      There's only so many songs it could be, guys.
