Songs With Game Shows in Them...

[addemup]

Ice-T had a song called "High Rollers" back in the late 80's.

[Mandoli]

What about High on You by Survivor?

It's understood, I had to reach her; I let the wheel of fortune spin
I touched your hand before the crowd started crashin' in

[Mandoli]

Here's one I don't believe we've mentioned - Jeopardy by Greg Kihn.

Rihanna's song "Fading" did mention Press Your Luck in the lyrics.  I don't think the song was ever released as a commercial single.

Also, the alternative rock band Sleeper had a song in 1996 called "Sale of the Century."

[Mandoli]

Searched for this one briefly, and I think I'm safe to post it since I couldn't find it.

Midnight Blue by Lou Gramm.

You were the restless one, and you did not care that
I was the trouble boy, lookin' for a double dare

[Mandoli]

Tone Loc's Funky Cold Medina, anyone?

Back in the saddle, lookin' for a little affection
I took a shot as a contestant on the Love Connection

[Kaos]

How about "Wipeout" by The Fat Boys with The Beach Boys?

So we cut on the box and started to shout
It was the Beach Boys rockin' huh huh the "Wipeout"

(The Peter Tomarken game show "Wipeout", not the ABC stunt show with Big Balls)

[Mandoli]

Here's a new song (came out this summer) - Horrorshow's If You Know What I Mean. Lyrics in question:

Get love on every corner, walkin' through our part of town
Yeah, you that lucky winner; Price is Right, so you better come on down

[Mandoli]

I don't know if I want to shoot off a video of the song (it's all lyrics), but ICP made a song that was based off of The Dating Game. The title is a little XXXish, so I'm not going to post it out in the open. It will be in this link.

EDIT: Then, you have Two Door Cinema Club with a song that's called Gameshow... A song not about the title. It's literally got "game show" in the title. So in it goes.

EDIT #2: How about The Pilot Kids' Game Show? Song is very vulgar, so don't let the little kids hear this.

Was this mentioned yet: "Get Out of My Dreams, Get Into My Car" by Billy Ocean, his last top ten hit, let alone last #1 song, mentions "Let's Make a Deal" in the lyrics.

[gameshowfan]

One of my favorite songs is "You Go First (Do You Wanna Kiss)" by Jessica Andrews, and one of the lyrics is "Can't you see what I'm suggesting, it's a double dare"

[wildjackmonroe]

There's a hidden track at the beginning of Kylie Minogue's 2000 album, Light Years, called "Password."

Her 2003 album is called Body Language, with the phrase "Read my body language..." heard in one of its songs, "Slow."

[manekineko]

I remember there being a ska song in the early 2000s that was a love letter to seeing Press Your Luck. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find it since then. One thing I remember was it also referenced Chuck Woolery and the $25,000 Pyramid as both not appealing to them as much as Press Your Luck.

Then, there's this rap gem:

I'm pretty sure we haven't tackled Billy Ocean yet. Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car, anyone?

Lady driver, let me take your wheel
Smooth operator, touch my bumper
Hey, let's make a deal; make it real

I did mention that Billy Ocean song some posts back, though I never included the lyrics.
