You know what makes this so special for me? Your complicity, the deep connection between you two! Thank you so much for sharing! (And you look awesome, both of you!)
I like that you guys barely use any jump cuts. Your confidence that the show is entertaining enough to hold someone's attention - even when you're just considering the answer to a challenge - is appreciated. The pacing works well without having to cut out the little pauses that a more impatient editor usually would.
You two should continue this for each decade from the 70's (my best decade) and onward! Sad to say first time I've seen any of these Guess That Song videos, but you both are so great together! Loved it. I didn't get many either, but it was fun to try. You two are so lovable and loved the wigs!
Love the wigs, also, I think the fact that I grew up with a family who was big on trivia puts me in a different perspective, but these were absolutely harder, definitely gonna share with them to see how many they can guess!
Not only did I get these (I was a teenager in the 80s) but Careless Whispers should have been Wham, not attributed directly to George Michael. The song was the last song on side 2 of "Make It Big". Funny how when I think of 70s and 80s music, I still think of "side 1" and "side 2". :) That went away once we all started buying CDs. And now with MP3, I guess the new generation wont even know about "albums", it is just individual songs.
It's usually credited as George Michael for some reason tho... I wasn't alive in the 80s so I don't know what it was originally but that's how it is today
I don't feel that much older than you two. But I was at Live Aid in Philly. At the age of 24. I remember these tunes on the now getting ancient format of local radio "featuring new Compact Disc sound" . I want to know how the hell did I get so old?
Next time use headphones guys. You still dub the laptop music anyway so why not have headphones on. You can sometimes even guess the song by the bass line which you can't even here with the macbook speakers. It would be more fair i think. love your videos and keep em coming :)
1. Let's Dance - David Bowie 2. I got nothing. 3. I got nothing. 4. Kiss - Prince. 5. Red, Red, Wine - UB40. Round Two. 1. You Give Love a Bad Name? by Dunno… 2. Careless Whisper - George Michaels. 3. Straight Up - Paula Abdul. 4. Jump - Van Halen. 5. I Wanna Dance With Somebody - by I Don't Know.
Now THIS decade I know. Almost 100% of titles and artists on just the short bits alone (for Jump I needed the long bit). These were my jams back in the day. :)
Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name (long) George Michael - Careless Whisper (short) ------- Van Halen - Jump (long) Whitney Houston - I wanna Dance with somebody (short)
Complaining about listening over laptop speakers?! I'm listening on the same model of laptop, and I'm 10/10 on 70s, 80s, and 90s. I can't believe I just discovered the "Mornings with Pomplamoose" channel - why did this end?!?
Don't be so hard on yourself, Jack! It's tough to guess an entire song with 0.2 or 0.3 seconds -- especially if it's from a decade in which you weren't even born. I was able to recognize many of them, but I was a young man in the mid-80s. Still, I didn't guess them all. While in the military in the 80s, we listened to all that stuff on cassette tape with our Sony Walkmans. Before that, I also had 8-Track tapes and even records.
OMG!!!! I know it's telling my age but I got almost every single one of those on the short clip. The Jump short clip tripped me up. I'm sorry I 💓 the 80s! BTW, love the hair! 🤪
The fact humans made it to the point where wearing a single neon mesh fingerless glove was ever a thing makes me happier than words could say. Also my smug sense of music recognizing superiority is in ruins now I know you guys are only hearing it on laptop speakers...
Just a suggestion: Maybe if there was a way where the 'contestant' could be hearing the music through headphones while the rest of us could also hear it - that way it might be easier to hear all the finer nuances of the song and help it be easier to identify. Sorry/proud to say I smoked Jack hardcore in this round, usually on the very first listen. I was wearing headphones and I know the sound quality off a laptop speaker isn't always the best.
I love 80's music, but no shame in not easily guessing the songs. 80's music tends to have a few distinctive sounds for the genre, but not as many distinctive sounds for the individual pop songs.
I'm watching this and listening thru headphones. The only song I needed to hear the long bit to figure out what it is was Jump by Van Halen, and I'm not even bragging. Next challenge plug in some speakers!
Love the hair. But we already have a Mike Myers. He makes us laugh the same way you would if the hair was real. I wrote that?!! I was only supposed to think it.
I was screaming so loud XD Needless to say I am very disappoint, though I can understand the laptop speakers thing. But still, I friggin' love 80s music and was going out of my mind yelling all these.
Seriously? You guys must be younger than I thought lol. Or, I must be older -- I got all those with the short segments! :-D I spent all of the 80's listening to famous 80's songs lol.
Shit. I knew most, but I didn't recognise "Jump", even though it was a favourite of mine at the time. And the school right next to our house played it every year for the end-of-year party right up until 2010 (when they moved to another building.)
NO!! The most embarrassing thing is that I pretty much got all of these and the 70's ones in the other vid....Thins making me feel incredibly old..... :D xx
mind milk's on the right track as i did intact listen to the audio coming from my laptop speakers in a tunnel next to a large train of passing trucks, that all seemed to be downshiftifting. no recording of it tho. too noisy outside
You know what makes this so special for me? Your complicity, the deep connection between you two! Thank you so much for sharing! (And you look awesome, both of you!)
This was honestly hard to watch being an 80's kid..lol Love the hair guys.
I know, right. Got all but one on the short snippet. Dance with somebody was actually harder with the long snippet.
I theorize that Jack's wig hair was interfering with his ability to recognize the clips.
I like that you guys barely use any jump cuts.

Pomplamoose need to go back to 80s school!
Jack, I could see tears coming off your mullet wig from sadness because of your performance.
RIP mullet wig... RIP
Let's Dance by..... AC/DC???
and it's "let's Dance", not "dance"... no point for that
I lol'd at that.
That would be an awesome cover.
sacriledge
AC/DC is almost the opposite of David Bowie.
I vote that Jack should wear the wig on EVERY episode. :)
+KaaSerpent I second that.
@@GateGeek I VOTE THAT NAT SHOULD BE TOPLESS EVERY EPISODE
Love the wigs, also, I think the fact that I grew up with a family who was big on trivia puts me in a different perspective, but these were absolutely harder, definitely gonna share with them to see how many they can guess!
Wow. I paid way to much attention in the 80's to music. Got everyone of these on the sort bit.
You kids are lovely. Never stop doing what you're doing. :)
No worries Jack, Nat missed MJ's Beat It so there can't be any winner really :)
Jack are you serious you didn't get the Bon Jovi ? DUUUUUUDE
Or Van Halen. Super easy ones imo
I really like these "guess that song" videos!
Poor Jack. Got Rekt. :( Great video guys! The wigs were bad ass.

BIG FAN!! got EM ALL EXCEPT THE LAST TWO!
Growing up in the 80s has given me an unfair advantage. The only one I missed was "Like a Prayer."
I can't believe either of you had trouble with any of these!
I don't feel that much older than you two. But I was at Live Aid in Philly. At the age of 24. I remember these tunes on the now getting ancient format of local radio "featuring new Compact Disc sound" . I want to know how the hell did I get so old?
I had soooooo much fun trying to guess it at the same time than you guys! Loved it :D
Bowie! I'm sitting here screaming Bowie at the cat! Why can't you here me in UA-cams!
Van Halen-Jump! jesus
its ok jackhahaa! and you two look awesome!! :')
You guys need to make this game into an app.
barbaric37 tata
I loooooooove this kind of game! thanks! do it more!
This is fun! We use to do this with 50 Rock n Roll then 60's Acid
I know it sounds stuck up, but I find it pretty funny that i don't like most of the songs that much but knew most of them. COME ON JACK!
I thought I knew nothing of the 80s but I got all of Jack's songs right away. How? I have no idea.
Next time use headphones guys. You still dub the laptop music anyway so why not have headphones on. You can sometimes even guess the song by the bass line which you can't even here with the macbook speakers. It would be more fair i think. love your videos and keep em coming :)

You guys are good sports. These vids are fun.
Now THIS decade I know. Almost 100% of titles and artists on just the short bits alone (for Jump I needed the long bit). These were my jams back in the day. :)
Are you going to resurrect this? I've just found it and it's awesome, guys!
Jack is the only person that would know the actual words to Careless Whisper.
Just 7 more subs till you guys hit 5,000!!
It was worth it for the wigs! It is strange seeing Jack with hair on his head!
That's why Jack is a genius! He doesn't recognize rock songs! He's not influenced by that. He's a pure musician! :-D
Are you saying... Rock is not music? *cough 50s moms cough* Seriously tho, what?
+Person Human If that were the case, I couldn't even be alive as a musician. Take it easy, man. :-) That was just a joke.
so what time on fridays? please give time zone ty
I beat both of you LOL
It was so amusing watching this video! Keep the fun up, guys!
Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name (long)
George Michael - Careless Whisper (short)
-------
Van Halen - Jump (long)
Whitney Houston - I wanna Dance with somebody (short)
You two make me feel old... :)
Oh, I can't believe it! I caught all her songs at first hearing!
I'm also hearing this over laptop speakers. And I got them all.
I must be older than I thought, I knew all of them. :(

You guys are awwwfffuuuullll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D
With love,
Coz.
p.s. Let me play this with you somehow.
All that extra insulation made his brain overheat.
How come u cant recognise bon jovi omg..
But hey may I know who prep those 1-2 sec music for u guys?
How did we never get a backwards 80s edition? Robbed.
To be fair, I think Jack's were much harder, but good to see Nataly even the score with her 'studying'! (I got 7/10 on Nataly's and 4/10 on Jack's)
Tennessee Waterfall. Business in the front, party in the back!
Jack never looked more Italian than he does in that wig. His nose becomes very Roman, especially in profile. Not a bad look.
I love this.
OMG!!!! I know it's telling my age but I got almost every single one of those on the short clip. The Jump short clip tripped me up. I'm sorry I 💓 the 80s! BTW, love the hair! 🤪
Got them all with the first bit except "Beat it". Then again, that's one of the few things I'm really good at. ;)
i legit killed it on this.
For the upcoming "80s Revenge Edition" you could have multiple 0.1s increments... you know, to make it fair ;)
The fact humans made it to the point where wearing a single neon mesh fingerless glove was ever a thing makes me happier than words could say.
Also my smug sense of music recognizing superiority is in ruins now I know you guys are only hearing it on laptop speakers...
I want to play board games with you two more than almost anything in the world! =D
I'm only 7 years older than Jack...but watching this I feel like that gap should be larger.
Oh Jack. Jack, no.
Great episode, though, guys. ;)

Oh my, I got most of these on the first try. Madonna was pretty short, didn't get the song. Good stuff!
And I have all of these songs....
Haha, loved this! But seriously? Those laptop speakers must have been terrible!
Oh man you let me down...
Nataly's round I got 6 points
Jack's Round I got 6 points
I heart 80's music! :)
I think this might be a skill I didn't know I had. Only missed UB40 and Van Halen.

2022 07 17; just saw it ....LOVED IT.
Wow, I RULED at this!!! Too bad I wasn’t you guys. ;) Fun regardless, as always!
I got them all! ... Damn I'm old as f***. I'm over the hill, gaining momentum down the other side.
Love the hair. But we already have a Mike Myers. He makes us laugh the same way you would if the hair was real. I wrote that?!! I was only supposed to think it.
From Jack's songs, I only got Bon Jovi and Van Halen.
Don't feel embarrassed, Jack! I'm sure the laptop speakers didn't exactly help you either. :)
That was fun!!🎉🎉😀
Wow, these are so easy! Then again I'm old.
If this was a real show I would be a champion
5:26 omg it was in the clip! *face palm.
1. Let's dance - Bowie
also; we love you jack. it's ok.
not a bad selection of board games
I’m proud to say that I’ve got all of em on the first take
It's so weird! All the really easy ones I got, and they didn't, and then the hard ones, well, nataly got...
Pre-gaming isn't the same as cheating. I still say you owe her one from the episode two weeks ago... 😅
First round: 9 points
Second one: 6 points :)
Frankly the last one I was going for Cindy Lauper - Girls just want to have fun ! I would have totally blown it !
I was screaming so loud XD
Needless to say I am very disappoint, though I can understand the laptop speakers thing. But still, I friggin' love 80s music and was going out of my mind yelling all these.
red red wine ~ :)
Love the bendy rules! :) hand lingers just over the buzzer!
Sorry Jack, but you didn't stand a chance against that Pink!
Nataly's round was soo easy..?! I was born in 88 and I got most of these!
Nataly kicked butt! Great job, NAT!😊
Seriously? You guys must be younger than I thought lol. Or, I must be older -- I got all those with the short segments! :-D I spent all of the 80's listening to famous 80's songs lol.
Concordia, Powergrid, Catan, Cosmic Encounters and Codenames! You're not just awesome musicians. . You also play
boardgames! Can we be friends?
Shit. I knew most, but I didn't recognise "Jump", even though it was a favourite of mine at the time. And the school right next to our house played it every year for the end-of-year party right up until 2010 (when they moved to another building.)
Wow. I thought I was bad at this but I mostly got the ones Nataly played.
NO!! The most embarrassing thing is that I pretty much got all of these and the 70's ones in the other vid....Thins making me feel incredibly old..... :D xx
i was born in the 90's and i knew most of these right away.
+scrumsguy although i understand laptop speakers suck
+MIND MILK I don't think they recorded the sound coming from the laptop speakers. I think they edited the song on to the video.
mind milk's on the right track as i did intact listen to the audio coming from my laptop speakers in a tunnel next to a large train of passing trucks, that all seemed to be downshiftifting. no recording of it tho. too noisy outside
So eaaasy! HOw can she miss those?
