Guest deanB Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Violent Femmes- Please Do Not Go And most of the songs on this album probably fit the thread criteria for anyone who got into the Femmes memorable debut way back in '83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hired goon Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I dunno that many songs with just one note (although there are some drones that are centred on a single frequency which may count). But this INXS song starts with a single note and I reckon if I could identify it easily from just that note: --Geoff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batty Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Purple Rain by Prince. Won me a gallon of beer in a pub quiz on the first note in a tie breaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
