This was the night of my guest round, so my teammates were kind enough to bring their A-games. We were in first place after a perfect opening round, and we pulled even further ahead in the audio round (Film Scores) thanks to our confident belief in the Super Chunk that Ewan McGregor and

Doo wop that thing, that thi-i-ing!

Last night I watched TV. Specifically? Angie.

I was looking for the version where her eyes are mouths, but reddit failed me.

Beatles, Stones, Animals, Tommy James and the Shondells, Motown, 'retha Franklin, Dusty Springfield, the Twilight Zone theme music, etc.
