Grandson of the Song Game Thread

Apparently, |Roger the Shrubber is to Pink Floyd as
Ripple is to The Grateful Dead

Team 1

Elephants and acrobats,
Lions snakes monkeys
Pele speaks “righteous”
Sister Zina says “funky”

How Bizarre, OMC

A couple. Like…more than five…

But, okay, okay…just for the sake of variety (and just this once):

  • We know of an ancient radiation
    That haunts dismembered constellations
    An faintly glimmering radio station
    While Frank Sinatra sings Stormy Weather
    The flies and spiders get along together*
    Frank Sinatra | Cake

Team 1

Or would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a pig?

Swingin’ On A Star, Ol’ Blue Eyes

Team 2 -

Bird Song The Grateful Dead

All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on

Cool beans, looks like Team 2 is closing the gap a little bit.

**Team 1 :smiley: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:
Team 2 :smiley: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: **

So who wants to pick the next subject?

Good on ya Ripple

I was thinkin’ about alcoholic beverages…as a topic, that is. What do you think?

BTW In case anyone’s interested… I usta be Crepitus Fremitus, but I changed it to Oly. It’s easier to type.

And besides, I sorta inheirited CF from someone else and it never felt quite like, well, ya know, ME.

So now, whatcha got here is 100% Oly, baby!! :smiley:

…anyway…

Well, seems nobody’s out there. Maybe now’s the chance to sneek in a new game and get another point for team 2 heh, heh, heh…

So, alcoholic beverages.

Team 2

Sad to say I must be on my way
so buy me beer or whisky
'cause I’m going far away

I want my titties
And I want my beer
so you just barf it back up, Devil
Do you hear?

Sorry I showed up at your party
Sorry I drank up all the bacardi
Sorry I puked up on your bedspread
Sorry I wanted to be your boyfriend again

“Sorry” - Nerf Herder

Team Two:

*The doctor came in
Stinking of Gin and proceeded to lie on the table
He said, “Rocky, you met your match”
And Rocky said, “Doc, it’s only a scratch
And I’ll be better, I’ll be better Doc, as soon as I am able” *

Rocky Raccoon | The Beatles

WPLJ, won’t you take a drink with me
Well, it’s a good good wine
It really make you feel so fine

Now you’re lost in a haze, of alcohol soft middle age
Laughing too loud at the rest of the world
With the boys in the crowd

In a champagne supernova in the sky

Time for someone to pick a new thing

How about men’s names?

Team 1

*I heard his fiancee got a letter
That told how Billy died that day
The letter said that he was a hero
She should be proud he died that way
I heard she threw that letter away …
*

Billy Don’t Be A Hero, Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods

(Note: I couldn’t access the boards after about 9:30 last night (8:30 Chicago time))

We done did men’s names. How 'bout something else?

Sorry, that’s how big these threads are, I totally missed the men’s name. Just because you’re a newbie doesn’t mean you can’t make a suggestion. Go on, Oly, don’t be shy.

OK, well, shucks…bein’ a newbie 'n all, ya know…

I’m not quite as green as it seems, mind you—If I may direct your attention back about 12 or 13 posts. :wink:

Anyways, we’ve covered a lot of topics here. How about shifting gears and trying something a little new?

Boy + Girl Duets.

ONly thing is, you can’t repeat pairs.
Repeat individuals–OK, so long as they’re with someone else.
Repeat songs–OK, so long as they were sung by a different pair.

Alright? Oh, and while just the song and the arteests will suffice, please feel free to include a little snippet so’s we can all appreciate the poetry

Let’s see how we goo…

team 2

Usta be’s don’t count any more
They just lie on the floor 'til we sweep them away.
I remember when…

You Don’t Bring me Flowers–Babs and Neil.

Looks like a point for Team 2, as Team 1 went totally MIA.

We’re getting close to the lockdown point. Should we keep going, start a new thread, or say hey, fun game, and Team 2 won by one point, hurrah?
