#304. Bob Dylan, "Tangled Up In Blue"
Don't blame me if you don't know the video. A little investigation helps... the filename of that photo is bob-dylan-tangled-up-in-blue.jpg. :P

That's exactly how I got it.  :bigsmile:
(Mind you, it didn't work for the Beatles photo a few rounds back  ;))

I'll be back.
#300. Rock n Roll Hoochie Coo — Rick Derringer
#298. Secret Agent Man — Johnny Rivers
#296. Witchy Woman — The Eagles (Wasted went Black Magic Woman, Evil Woman was an answer earlier in the game, and Sarah is too brilliant for me to ever come up with on my own. Besides somebody's got to do the obvious.)

<picture of the Wicked Witch> (4 ... worth that much because it requires a pretty big mental leap)
#296. The Police, "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic"
I couldn't think of any famous female magicians, so I thought "witch" next. :bigsmile:

By the way, he's back.

I laughed for almost a full minute at that link.  I love that he goes by "Franken-STEEN," just like the Gene Wilder character in Young Frankenstein.  In fact, I'm still laughing as I type this.

No worries.  You know, there's a tactical ploy I could adopt to ensure that no one could catch me -- basically, copy whatever the second-place guy says, so that I don't win but get almost as many points, and then when he sits out build up the lead.  But, it's not very sporting, and where's the fun in that?  Though it would be more fun to play every round...
By the way (consider this a gift if correct), I'll be stoked if The Firm is an answer to one of those clues.  :ninja:  Their tour was the only time I ever got to see Jimmy Page live.

I saw that in the lyrics, but remembered that this song was something like #52 or #53 in the last game, so I figured it couldn't be this low!  Next, we'll see Bohemian Rhapsody at #239! 
 
#288. The drummer's name doesn't match his appearance. This has to be a ZZ Top song - so I'll try this guess again: Gimme All Your Loving
#286. Epic vocal wailing. Child in Time - Deep Purple
#283. They couldn't fix an egg. OK, I'm biting the bullet on this one as we have had the odd soul classic creep in: All the Kings Men - Aretha Franklin Scrub that - thanks for the tip: :ok: All the Kings Horses - The Firm
#281. Might make a good Windows startup sound. Start Me Up - The Stones
 
#290. Communication Breakdown — Led Zeppelin
#288. Sharp Dressed Man — ZZ Top
#285. You’re My Best Friend — Queen
#281. Start Me Up — Stones
 
285: Queen - Another One Bites the Dust
289: Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen (after thinking long and hard about songs to do with widescreen TV screen settings and drawing a blank)
287: Jimi Hendrix - Stone Free
286: Deep Purple - Child in Time
284: Aerosmith - Dude Looks Like a Lady
