Second round. Still time to join in for anyone who might think that they could do better and kick ass.

Each song holds the potential of two points - one point for artist and one point for the song (with the exception of the first two songs, where I'm good with the title of the respective TV songs).

Song 235 isn't very close to the original one. You need to get your guitar out of tune and play it waaaay crappier...

Just kiddin', bro!

.....you don't hear me disagreein' there....

I take it you recognized it, then.....

Considering that Gary Moore recently got beef for having allegedly plagiarized some dude with "Still Got The Blues" (although he had probably never heard about the dude, and SGTB was basically a slight modification of his own hits "The Loner" and "Parisienne Walkways"), the "artist" behind 235 should'a gotten sued for having ripped off a certain famous guitar player, who in turn ripped that tune off from another artist.

Not to mention that The Rolling Stones, clapton and Zeppelin should'a been forced to fork over basically all their earnings to the families of the deceased black blues players they ripped off note for note without any royalties being paid off to the originators.

With that logic, the dude who figured out that you could tune a guitar to open G/D and slide up to the 12 fret to play some triplets should be stinking rich, right?
