      And here I was hoping this one wouldn't be guessed as fast :laugh:. At least it wasn't Collin this time. I guess I'll have to recur to less mainstream stuff or songs in my mother language ;P

              Actually, this was the first of the posted songs I recognized. The previous ones (at least the ones I saw) I hadn't even heard of.

                              None
                              }

                              And this:

                              public class Person
                              {

                              throw new Exception("Can't perform operation");
                              }
                              }

                              What's the song of this code?:

                              var you = new Person();
                              var me = new Person(BodyParts.Head);
                              me.Remove(you);

                                    Yeah, I guessed the song name based on the code and the top of the list showed a 'pop' type artist. So, I assumed I got it right. ;-)

                                      public Person(BodyParts part)
                                      {
                                      bodyPart = part;
                                      }

                                      public void Remove(Object target)
                                      {
                                      if (bodyPart == BodyParts.Head)
                                      throw new Exception("Can't perform operation");
                                      }
                                      }

                                      What's the song of this code?:

                                      var you = new Person();
                                      var me = new Person(BodyParts.Head);
                                      me.Remove(you);

                                      If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right - Henry Ford Emmanuel Medina Lopez

                                      First song that popped into my head was ELO's "Can't Get it Out of My Head" from their Eldorado album. Which is wrong, but accurately describes the Kylie Minogue earworm you just planted... :-\ Flynn
