Guess That Band/song: a Game of Emoji Riddles

Posted on the 17 April 2013 by Thewildhoneypie @thewildhoneypie

While browsing Mashable a few weeks back, I stumbled across a pretty fun article.  They posted an iPhone emoji game that entailed guessing what book was spelled out in the fun, colorful characters.  It got us thinking, and realized we could come up with a fun game of our own.  For the past few weeks, me and some friends have gone back and forth with this game and came up with what you see below.  Now it’s your turn to join in!  Below you will find a collection of bands and songs that you have to guess based on the symbols provided.  Can’t figure them out?  Don’t be concerned, just highlight to the right of where it says “answer” and the riddle will be revealed.  Let us know what you think in the comments!  Should we do this again?

Big time thank you to Sarah Heinemann and Alex Toy for helping out with these!
