I was looking for video games like Space Invaders and Frogger, etc and naturally thought about game shows. I put some obvious ones that had game show in the title and then some songs about specific game shows and even that were about games shows. I used Weird Al's version of the Greg Kihn song, because I think it's hilarious. The Kihn version is darn good though. A couple of songs with lyrics referring to Game Shows and one with a made up game show as part of the song (the Meatmen which btw, was the first song I thought of for this connection). I didn't use any theme songs or covers of theme songs, but I think there are a few of those around. What is/was your favorite Game Show?

ReplyDeletethere is always a sound question where you have to find the connection between four seemingly random musical excerpts
That sounds amazing!
