13. R: Name a song from the movie Purple Rain that was not performed by Prince.



Let’s go crazy figuring out the 3 other bands that played at First Avenue and what songs they performed before we find out when doves cry.

Let’s start with the incorrect…

davidh777

My answer would've been the Apollonia song if I could've remembered its name.

Martin Scorsese recalled Steven Spielberg meeting Bernard Herrmann during the recording sessions for Taxi Driver. When Spielberg stated how much he admired the composer's work Herrmann responded, "If you like me so much why did you hire John Williams?"

14. S: Name any Oscar winner for Best Original Song since 1997.



10 years making it 11 choices… could the sheep remember the important Best Original Song winners to get a match?

Let’s start with songs that did not get a match…

Ugh, now "Let it Go" is sheepy.

Not all animated Disney films are musicals, but from those that are... what would be the sheepiest?

Not this sheep....

Mr. Flix

I wanted to answer The Little Mermaid, but had a hunch that "Let it Go" would put Frozen in the sheep's minds. For once, I was right.

devilshalo

We'll finish up tomorrow.... phone calls and meetings put a damper on things...

DaveNinja

damn, i was up to 2nd place but fell to 6th after two Frozen heavy questions.

Kal-El

One of the only few times I will betray the House of El is for the opportunity to slam what is essentially a “gimme” question in Sheep Games.

16. R: Name a song nominated for an Oscar from any James Bond film.



With all of the famous theme songs of the various James Bond films, you’d think that there would be more than just 6 that were at least nominated for an Oscar…

17. S: Name a female singer that not only starred in a film, but performed that film's title song.



Movie make use of their talent, especially when they’re also singers and can add to a film’s appeal when added to the soundtrack….

Who did the sheep pick?

These did not get matches....

davidh777

"Title song" is debatable, but no wrong answers in sheep.

Decker

Streisand sang the title song in The Way We Were, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever and The Main Event, but not on any of the movies devilshalo listed.

Also nobody listed Dolly Parton of 9 to 5.

wishbone

Once again, go older or newer with answers... originally thought Madonna or Bette Midler or Babs or even Dolly Parton...

mwbmis

The Rose is one of my favorite songs. I think of it every time I get shot by someone wearing a bird mask. I've never seen the movie though.

Decker

Your answer was correct but Dreamgirls is really more of a Beyonce song and I would have answered that over Jennifer Hudson if I thought of that song and movie.

Mr. Flix

Yup. My first instinct with this question was to answer Whitney Houston/The Bodyguard, but then I thought, "I Will Always Love You" is the main song, not the "title" song. In the end, I answered Streisand/The Way We Were.

Which makes me curious: did most sheep answer with a singer AND a movie title, or just the singer? I assumed you needed to provide both, and that titles would be separated, not lumped together by singer. So for instance, I don't think those who answered "Madonna/Die Another Day" should be scored together with "Madonna/Who's that Girl." But maybe that's just me.

Decker

It just asked for the singer/star, not the song/movie title.

18. R: Name a song from the movie Saturday Night Fever that is performed by The Bee Gees.



Another iconic soundtrack, one that changed the Bee Gees sound into a more groove intensive R&B success. It also had a limited number of choices. 6 songs grace the album by the Gibbs.

There was one incorrect answer...
