Let's get started right away:

QUESTION 1 OF 4

In what language did the band Nena originally write the 1982 song

99 Red Balloons

?

[RedCoyote]

Oh, whoops. I think we just shout it, right?

German

[Save The Dragons]

Whatever letter German is

[StrangerCoug]

D3f3nd3r, is the answer:

In what language did the band Nena originally write the 1982 song

99 Red Balloons

?

1. German
   
2. French
   
3. Italian

Whatever letter German is

Each question starts off open-ended, but becomes multiple choice once a player gives a response (in which case said response is always A)

[Save The Dragons]

reading comprehension is hard

[D3f3nd3r]

Oddly enough, less than an hour after you posted the question I heard this song on the radio. Didn't know that that was the question until now though.

A.

[StrangerCoug]

It was originally in German.

In what language did the band Nena originally write the 1982 song

99 Red Balloons

?

2. French
   
3. Italian

Save The Dragons picks up one spin, RedCoyote picks up three spins, and D3f3nd3r picks up one.

QUESTION 2 OF 4

You may have heard of

Press Your Luck

's 2002 revival

Whammy!

on GSN, but did you know that

Press Your Luck

Save The Dragons and RedCoyote?

[Save The Dragons]

B

[RedCoyote]

C

... I think High Rollers is a different show. SC might have actually ran that one once (or tried to) several months ago if I remember correctly. Never heard of A but that doesn't seem to fit.
