blind-fitter Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 You're heading straight for it, Mr. bazooka. Landscape is correct for the artist; it's just the song title you need to sort out. As it is, your anagram for the song is much neater than mine, and will only require minimal juggling to arrive at the actual title you're looking for. Sorry if it's a bit obscure; I only know this song made it across the pond because I remember Ten Pea mentioning it a long time ago. It wasn't even a big hit over here, though Landscape's previous single had been.
bazooka Posted April 23, 2010 Author Report Posted April 23, 2010 That would be Norman Bates - Landscape I should admit bazooka was not familiar with the song or artist, but got myself a quick education. ------ [smaller]new:[/smaller] Avocado Ministry Union - Aimless Loon
Brad_M Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 Avocado Ministry Union - Aimless Loon I haven't had much time to work on this one since my computer was down for almost 2 weeks, but I did get to work on it a little bit and I must say that with only 11 letters in the artist or band name, I thought it would be a breeze. Wow, was I wrong. I can't come up with anything from those letters. Maybe it's a weird name that I've never heard of. I'm not giving up yet. I'll try again tomorrow.
Brad_M Posted May 6, 2010 Report Posted May 6, 2010 Avocado Ministry Union - Aimless Loon Your Mind Is On Vacation - Mose Allison That was a tough one, Bazooka. I never heard of the guy. I found him by googling to see if an Allison Mose existed. New one: Rip Jail Skate Dues - Held Void Tear
bazooka Posted May 7, 2010 Author Report Posted May 7, 2010 I never heard of the guy. I found him by googling to see if an Allison Mose existed. Mose Allison is a unique maker of cool cool (double cool) jazz and blues, and clever lyrics. You may not know him, but you've most likely heard covers of his songs.

Brad_M Posted June 7, 2010 Report Posted June 7, 2010 Bazooka, I did a little searching with the little bit of time I had these past few weeks but came up with nothing. Either you've got a stumper here or my brain is on vacation. I think it's time to ask for a small hint.
bazooka Posted June 8, 2010 Author Report Posted June 8, 2010 [smaller]I wouldn't be surprised if you've never heard of this great group out of New Orleans. They certainly deserve more notice. They've put out eight studio CDs and a couple Live ones since 1989, but hibernated between 1996 and 2002. They get around. Watch for them at a smaller venue near you.[/smaller]
Brad_M Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 Toot Mint Sushi Reefer - Bushed Duets Time For The Sun To Rise - The Subdudes That was a tough one, Bazooka. Thanks for the hint. One of my earliest deciphers was "The Sub Dudes" but I didn't bother to look up if they were a band or not cuz I thought, "nobody would name their band this" and I was also mostly trying for well-known names. This time around, I thought, "let me google it to see if they exist". Next time, I'm going to look up all names no matter how goofy they sound. New anagram: Oat Beer Menu Ring - Pet Men Shore Lip

bazooka Posted August 31, 2010 Author Report Posted August 31, 2010 Hello Dad Dairy Men - No Vent Has Pens Brad's come up with doozey this time. Yours truly has hit a brick wall. Let's see if one of you hundreds of other eager anagram descramblers can ease my worried mind.
Brad_M Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 And it's not an obscure song...it was a Top 40 hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1984.
cyberjudge Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 I know the artist, but I'm drawing a blank on the song. I'll keep trying before looking it up.
Earth-Angel Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 Oh wow, I miss this thread! I haven't played in ages!
Brad_M Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 "Come Out To Play" Earth Angel, come out to play-ee-ayyy Earth Angel, come out to play-eee-ayyyy Earth Angel, come out to play-ayyyyy! Earth Angel, come out to playyyyyyyy!!! Earth Angel, come out to playyyyyyyy!

The song and artist somehow completely bypassed bazooka's cognition ( I relied on 60s and 70s stuff during the 1980s). I worked from your hint.
