I hope I have better luck next time, although I have successfully narrowed it down to the early 80’s, which is good.  

What happened to 1979 or 1980?

Can you predict what already has been?

Steve Marriott is one of the most fantastic vocalists I have ever heard. His voice is way better than Robert Plant’s by at least a mile. beatlemaniacs_02_gif

Here’s list of 20 songs with vocal parts that are considered instrumentals according to Wikipedia’s guidelines:

A. Short verbal interjections as a short part of an extended piece

B. Repetitive nonsense words (AKA repeating the same few word(s) and that’s it)

C. Spoken passages

D. Wordless vocals

E. Vocal percussion

F. Yodeling

G. Whistling

H. Inclusion of field recordings which may or may not contain non-lyrical words (AKA stuff like crowd cheering)

9. Sleeping Village (Black Sabbath, 1970) (A)

 

That’s total nonsense. Sleeping Village is not even remotely an instrumental. 

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

Although it technically has vocals, the only vocal section of Sleeping Village is the intro, of which uses only 22 words and the vocals only last for 25 seconds out of the 3:46 song. Meanwhile, The Hustle, which is considered an instrumental, uses 28 words and the vocals stop at around the 1 minute mark in a 4:10 song. Think about it.

Oh my gosh, you know that feeling when you’ve had your shirt inside out all day, and you didn’t notice, but you’re sure that everyone else saw it and are didn’t tell you because they didn’t want to embarrass you? Well I looked at my signature and it said “The one and only Billy ShEErs” did anyone notice that before, because I sure didn’t. Maybe one of the mods changed it to mess with me. Well I’m going to go fix it right now.

I wonder which mod did that… @Ahhh Girl 

I can guarantee you that it was “Here | There | Everywhere The one and only Billy Shears (AKA Paul’s Replacement) 2016:2016 Award 1

” a couple of days ago because I remember thinking about Here, There And Everywhere after seeing it. So it must have been changed recently. I think.

Wasn’t me. Joe and Ellie are the only ones with the power to edit someone else’s signature. Ellie hasn’t be on and Joe is way to busy to go around randomly editing signatures. Even if he had the time, he wouldn’t do it unless asked.

In A Gadda Da Vida isn’t an instrumental, not even close.  

Let’s do the math:

The vocals come in at about 0:25 and stop at 2:05, that’s 1:40 of vocals from the second the singer starts singing until the end of the 2nd chorus. Then we have 13:20 of instrumental and the vocals come back in at 15:25 and drop out again at 16:10, giving us an additional 45 seconds of vocals. That’s a total of 2:25 worth of vocals in a 17:05, that’s 14% vocals and 86% instrumental.

Welp it looks like my signature typo was just a silly mistake made by me that went unoticed for as long as I had that as my signature. Here’s a screenshot that I found from back when I made that silly John Lennon eggs joke.

That’s what I used to think until everyone told me that Flying was an instrumental.
