Would You Like To Win The New BEATLES: REMASTERED (Stereo) Albums?
Greetings! ScoreKeeper here swimming through legions of screaming Beatles fans to announce a contest headed to the toppermost of the poppermost. It may even be more popular than Jesus!
You may recall last month I penned a review of THE BEATLES: REMASTERED (Stereo) box set where I waxed poetic my opinions and reactions to each of the fourteen newly remastered Beatles albums. Well, I'm pleased to announce the good folks at Apple Corps Ltd. and EMI Music in conjunction with LBI Special Ops Media, would like to give away an entire set of all fourteen remastered albums to one worthy Ain't It Cool reader.
So what form of insanity are you required to subject yourself to in order to acquire this magnificent prize?
Listen to the audio clip below. It features a tiny slice of audio from fifteen different Beatles songs butt-spliced together into an eleven-second clip. Your task is to correctly name, in order, the fifteen Beatles songs featured in the clip. The person who correctly names all fifteen songs will be the winner. If more than one person names all fifteen songs, in order, their names will be entered into a drawing and the ultimate winner chosen randomly from the lot. If no one correctly names the fifteen Beatles songs then it will revert to the person with the highest number correct. Once again, if there are more than one entry with the highest number correct, then those entries will enter a drawing and the ultimate winner chosen randomly from the lot.
Here is the clip:

Awesome WKRP inspired contest!
-
They make one of these routinely.
-
I can't see the link
-
Tricky though.
-
Thanks though.
-
they are all over the map that's for sure.
-
" There's no need to cry too much love of pussy, when I go. Man, don't make me fuckin bad .. too." Pure. Awesome.
-
I can clearly point out the final six in a row. First half is tough.
-
I smiled
-
with a 2 maybes still .. I've literally had to pull out all my albums now. It's going to be a hard days night figuring these out :)
-
The contests here are so lame.
-
I'm now thinking at least 2 of my sure things are maybes again. One of these fits a McCartney song ( non beatles I mean ) and now that I've thought that I can't get it out of my head! I wish we could get partial credit
-
are reffering to? By the way, is #5 among those that is giving you doubt?
-
I can only see a thin black line.
-
nice splice job, this will be a fun challenge!
-
Some of you might be having trouble viewing the link depending on what browser you're using. Here's a direct link if you need it: http://www.aintitcool.com/images2009/beatles-clip.mp3

But a couple of those are even pretty sketchy. Damn. And I've heard every Beatles song about a thousand times...

That link works better! This is gonna be a tricky bugger to win!

Christ they're more overrated now than they were in the sixties.

Lockes is now trolling the TB for a contest that he thinks is "lame" for a band he thinks is overrated? Are you that attention starved? I see that your shitty taste isn't limited to movies.

you guys stop with the hate, ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE
by supercowbell5thecowbellhasspoken
-
And you'll NEEEEEEHHH-VER, See... an old man, Eat-a... MAAAAAAARS... a bar-bar-bar!Ha ha... Karl Pilkington has a head like fucking orange!
-
I'm confident in all my answers but I have no clue what #8 is.
-
With no doubts whatsoever.
-
Unless it's against the rules, I'll trade 3 other answers for #7, #8 and #14 (which sounds so obvious, but I don't think it's the song it seems to be).
-
It is what I thought it was... just had to listen to my headphones a little more closely.
-
What's #4?
damn.
-
I'll give you 4 if you give me 8
-
We have 14/15...this one we can't figure out is gonna drive us nuts!
-
which one?
-
Hey WalrusSAS, the only one I need is #8 which seems to be a running theme, haha. I'll trade anyone one other answer for the answer to #8!
-
maybe revolution 9? not sure
-
I'm pretty damn sure I got at least 12 of the suckers and the other 3 I'm mostly sure of. I'm not 1005 sure though. Guess scorekeeper will put a lot of people out there misery of trying so hard if someone does get the full 15?
-
I'm meant "100% sure" and "their misery", lol
-
I can only hear 3 of them listening to it 3 times in a row.
I already have the mono set and a few of the stereo discs. I might take 30 minutes to take a crack at it, but this is a VERY tough clip here. Good job putting that together. By the way, I think #4 was one of the few that I knew immediately... -
#7 seems so obvious... but what I keep THINKING it is, I've already used for another answer which is the definite answer and I know #7 isn't that song, but I just can't place it! And #8 doesn't seem to be anything that I can recall. I've got everything else easily. I feel I'm overthinking at this point. Damn you, Scorekeeper! (actually, Thank you for giving me something to do at work today!)
-
Only took me 4 hours of obsessive listening and brain-strain!
-
Got em all, including #8...now just have to double check #15 and I'll send it in!
-
I assume everything is on "real" albums (British releases)-- No past masters, rarities, Love, Anthology or anything that's not an album release?
-
Past Masters counts as an album. It's all songs that have no other album, hence Past Masters - a collection of them.
-
Now I'm sure about 15....anyone wanna trade for #15 if you are POSITIVE what #15 is?
-
Because I know all the commenters care so much haha.
Got all 15, positive I got em all right! Yes yes yes!
#15 is a trap, be warned :) -
NUMBER 9....
-
I give karate lessons and BJs
-
I'm pretty sure I got all 15, though I'm only 98% sure I got #5.
-
...I already sent my entry in and I'm pretty sure I screwed up on #15
-
Man, that was tough and I'm a HUGE Beatles afficianado! You wouldn't believe the sort of CSI set-up I had to go through to break this thing down. Now I'm 100% on all 15! Great fun contest! So funny how easy they all are once you've solved it!
-
Surprised that with all the love for the Beatles, no douchebag has said the words "garbage" or "overrated" yet... give it time.
-
Well, Garbage are overrated.
-
Are a band with about (on average) as much talent as a band with Elton John, Billy Joel, Freddie Mercury and Phil Collins in it. So to all the dicks who run them down, they may not be your thing, but they are still the worlds most evolutionary talent to a single century's music.
-
Don't believe me? http://tinyurl.com/ye5nynp

...no slagging off of the Beatles fans here, but come on, you know this man was way more influential and way more talented.
-
The player has disappeared. It's 10:55 a.m. EST and the player is not available.
-
Having procrastinated this until the last minute, the roommate and I stayed up until 4 a.m. trying to figure these out. We only got 8 or 9 of them. Did get #8, at least, which is pretty damn hard in my opinion.
-
anyone?
-
...in an hour. The contest isn't over yet.
-
I got them all!!
