Lyrical Leanings 1 - The Reveal

tusk

OK Guys, here we go!

The reveal of the Inaugural Lyrical Leanings game (again, new name needed!)

How it works:

• I'll post all the entries
• Participants should like any and all lyrics that give the song away for them. (be honest, we're all friends here and it's about taking part, not being a smelly cheater)
• Participants will have 24 hours to add their likes.
• Non-participants, please don't like any entries until the game is over, as it will muddle the scores.

The Fine Print

• Lyrics must not contain the name of the song. i.e. you can't submit 'And after all, you're my Wonderwall'
  
• Duplicate lines from the same song will be combined in one post, their submitters will receive the same score.
• Different lines from the same song will be separate posts.
• In some instances, some modifications may have been made to the entries, but shouldn't make a difference.

Thanks again for signing up. We'll close out the liking at 10:30am tomorrow morning and I'll post the scores and player/lyric combos.

And your brother's gonna kill me And he's six feet ten

When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom

So no one told you life was gonna be this way

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin', A poor little baby child is born.

How your man stayed up on the surfboard after 14 pints of stout

And there's a storm that's raging through my frozen heart tonight

tusk

I thought love was only true in fairytales.

tusk

Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world

tusk

Not a lyric: Feel like i've gone mad doing all these concurrent posts hahah

tusk

Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?

tusk

They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold, but the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old.

tusk

And the bells were ringing out on Christmas Day

tusk

Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

tusk

You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere, imagination, life is your creation

tusk

There is a house in New Orleans

tusk

It's like you're always stuck in 2nd gear

tusk

I'm a shooting star, leaping through the sky

tusk

He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces"

In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone.

tusk

Mama just killed a man, put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger now hes dead

tusk

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold

tusk

When first I saw the love light in your eye

I want to shower you with sugarlumps, and ride you over fences

Slip inside the eye of your mind, and you know you might find A better place to play

tusk

Right, that's your lot!

Have fun - feel free to chat if you want, but don't give anything away

Should we like ones we recognise, if we don't actually know the name/artist?

Are we liking our own?
Think we should.......

Yep, if you recognise the song, you can like. Artist, title, year, album, publisher, instruments used, manager's granny's name are all irrelevant :pac:

Perfect, cheers

Tammy!

What if we know the lyrics, know the artist and know the title but just really hate the song? Do we have to thank it

Sure I know 21 but can't think of it.

Same with 22. I'm 80% sure but don't wanna google it.

What if I suspect one is breaking the rules.......?

It’s not, that song is called something else I think, if it’s #22 you’re talking about?

Green&Red

Tusk, would you cross reference who thanked the most posts? Have two winners

It's all good, continue as if I said nothing

Spoiler :P

I just realised this game could be a big ploy for me to receive a sh1tload of thanks for basically doing nothing!

osh

There's another one for you

Off to unlike everything now so

Pretzill

I recognise all but two and that's just a quick thinking off the top of my head, I'm sure I'd get them at all. This might be a better game if we just thanked the lyrics we liked rather than the ones we knew - maybe?



or that the line with the least ammount of likes is the winner
