Just a little game that comes to mind after receiving a message from a last.fm pal.

The first user gives a number, the next user will have to come up with a song or album that contains the specific number given and he/she will give another random number for the game to play on.

Say I give: 1919

Answer: John Cale - Paris 1919

3

Soulfly - 3

ok you get the idea. Play fair, no last.fm search, no google :-)

Now, an easy one to start with:

1812
