wow, these are interesting! when i saw the title i thought i'll know them all, no problem, like it usually happens with most FM related questions you see in various radio polls, but i would know the answers to just 1, 2, 3, and 8, and even needed some re-confirming on those.

musical with Linda Ronstadt? definitely interesting!

Since you only know 4 out of 10 you must not be the LB fan you claim to be.

I had the same thought and quickly got put in my place too, after reading them! I, too, am most intrigued by #10 , as I always wondered why Lindsey was never approached for movies, TV or modeling, etc.

I only know 1, 2, and 5. #3 I realized I knew after Elle told me, but I guess that doesn't count

I assume that Lindsey himself would be stumped by the answer to #2. He was asked about it in a fan question and kind of burst my bubble since I like to think there's a meaning behind repeated lyrics.

you are actually better than me. really, i cheated by saying i knew #3 because i too realized i knew it only after i heard the answer, even though i have that Blue Monday version on one of my car CDs (but i always skip it b/c it's boring).

really? interesting! i have those lyrics on 2 of my lindsey-lyrics/request t-shirts, along with some other lyrics from the later song.

and for some additional trivia, i believe there is a member here whose ledge name is facesofglass. i bet he'd know where the phrase was used!

Yeah, that was Gaius' question that he answered on video right after he answered mine. Did anyone downloaded these? I"m especially looking for the first Q he answered (mine, "gerald from the netherlands"), and the second one: The faces of glass Q you mentioned.....

ha so it turns out that facesofglass was asking Lindsey about faces of glass

- and Lindsey didn't know the answer?!

and i second what Gerald asked - i've never had a chance to see those vids - does anybody have them?

Lindsey was kind of like Urkel. His reaction was rather: Did I do that? Interesting.
