[edit] What's the name of this song?

Does anyone know the name of the song in this video? Thank you a lot. -- Leptictidium (mammal talk!) 00:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

It's "Fjortis Dunk" by Basshunter. (song credits are given at the end of the clip)---Sluzzelin talk 05:34, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Can't remember this game =

The game i am thinking of is a Action Role-Playing game, The plotline goes along the lines of trying to reassemble a shield that was split into four parts after it was sundered by a massive sword. The sword was re-found and given to some big ass dude at the end.

From what i remember one of the bosses in game is a dragon which you shoot down with a balista. Can anyone please help me out with this? It's on the tip of my tongue and i really need to find out what this game is called.

Another boss is like a giant massive tree creature. Catman503 (talk) 02:12, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Playstation 2 fps?

Hello. I'm looking for a first person shooter for the playstaion 2 that has great splitscreen/online multiplayer action. Specificly I am looking for one on one action in large open envirements , with good graphics. Thank you very much for listening and I would appreciate any recomendation (Sighnhands (talk) 15:57, 21 March 2008 (UTC))

A popular one is Call of Duty 3 or there is also Medal of Honor: Vanguard, but you should also check out the List of PlayStation 2 games article for more choices.--Dlo2012 (talk) 01:21, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Wouldn't Timesplitters 1 and 2 qualify? You can also search video game sites by genre. For example all PS2 FPS can be found on IGN here: [1] --70.167.58.6 (talk) 20:27, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you all very much for all your recomendations, I really do appreciate it. I just want to clarify, do all of these games have one on one online multiplayer , because that's the main thing I'm looking for. Once again , thank you for your help (Sighnhands (talk) 17:43, 23 March 2008 (UTC))

Go with COD3, great game. Its online is pretty fun (much like BF2 with infantry and tanks). And you can just make a private match for one on one. БοņёŠɓɤĭĠ₳₯є 02:39, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lyrics to Johnny Mercer's "Tangerine"

Song says that if her lips of flame keep their color, "Louis Phillippe's to Blame". I can find no ref to Louis Phillippe as a lipstick or other cosmetic. I'm sure this was a funny line to insiders but it's meaning has been lost over time. Anyone know?152.133.13.1 (talk) 18:27, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

The correct spelling, "Louis Philippe," will get you many Google hits, such as this. Deor (talk) 18:42, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DVD releases of family films

I hope there's been a DVD release of Dirt Bike Kid, starring Peter Billingsley. If there is, that's great. Since Little Marines and Little Marines 2 were released as a 2-disc DVD set, I'm also hoping the same thing would be done for Skateboard Kid and Skateboard Kid 2. If there's anyone out there who feels the same way I do, please let me know. Thank you.72.229.136.18 (talk) 21:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

amazon has one for sale at [2], but it's $115. Corvus cornixtalk 04:36, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Enrique Iglesias question

[edit] Dennis Cometti's music

This might be a stretch, but I watched a rpt of Who do you think you are?: Dennis Cometti on SBS television (australia) and wonder if anyone knows what operatic piece was played during the segment where he visits Terino in Italy? Thanks, Julia Rossi (talk) 22:58, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
