the "Name that Song" game!

Ok, the purpose of this game is simple... all you have to do is listen to a sound byte that someone's posted and guess what song it's from. Easy enough, eh?

Guidelines:
Covers - If the sound you post is from a cover of another band, then it would be acceptable for someone to name the original band's name, unless there is something radically different between the original song and the cover
Length - Soundbytes must be at least 10 seconds long and shouldn't be longer than 30 seconds (or else it would be too easy).
Filters - don't use filters unless it's something really simple like a fade-in or fade-out.
Sound-type - Use a section of the song that would be identifiable. For example, if you chose Dream Theater's "Grand Finale", it wouldn't be good to take 10 seconds of their minute-long, 1 note fadeout and call it a soundbyte. Choose something dynamic

Oh, and if you need a program with which to chop up your songs, try Audacity! It's free and something that the admins like apparently (I'm refering to that radio thread in the Announcements forum), and you certainly get quite a package for such a low (again, I say FREE:) ) price.

Alright! I'll start you all off with an easy one... here ya go!
