The dread Literati Rock game

Oops, how did I miss this one:

Galileo’s head was on the block. The crime was looking up the truth. – Indigo Girls

This is fun, but you cats are too smart for me I guess … I’ve hardly figured out any of these.

So, a few of my own. These feel pretty easy, but it’s the fun that counts.

N1: While you aver, I deny; where you urge cessation, I repeatedly endorse motion.

N2: I am simply unable to determine a proper starting point. While he claims his patience is infinite, urgent action is clearly required.

N3: Vigilance is advised; members of the species canis familiaris may be within the vicinity.

N4: Is it not typical of the nocturnal period to wreak subtle mischief as one attempts to avoid clamor?

N5: Each insignificant action she performs is embued with otherworldly qualities.

N1 - You say yes, I say no, you say stop, I say go go go. - Beatles

N5 - Every little thing she does is magic. - The Police

N5: Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, The Police (I think)

A couple…
NT1: Awakened, left my nocturnal resting place, drew a tined grooming object across my cranium.

NT2: I resolve to utilize my legs for rapid locomotion in the falling precipitation until my lungs are unable to function efficiently enough for respiration.

NT1 - Woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head. - Beatles

Three of mine remain unsolved.

I’ll put the other one on another post. This task of herding three quotes from page 1 to a reply box on page 2 is vexing.

There you go.

“She’s gone, but I don’t worry, I’m sitting on top of the world” - Sitting On Top of the World, by Eric Clapton?

NT3: Tune your aural receptors to the words of the botanical Homo sapiens; hark! it is gaining volume with every rotation of the earth.

:smiley: Try that one!

AN3 Among my possessions is an adult male whose presence evinces a desire for random termination of routine bodily functions.

“I got a man who makes me want to die,” Yeah Yeah Yeahs (?)

Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife…
(Paradise by the Dashboard Light, by Meat Loaf)

GB1: If I have a moment of uncertainty, I usually find that the best course of action is to expose my phallus.

Eeeeehhhhhxcellent.

I still have:

S2- And so the exchange of dialogue continued rotationally, until such time as the earth had spun so as to hide the nearest star from view in that location, and a large number of pleasant mental fictions were comprehended upon that date…

and my wife still has:

**
MS1-Full of strange, unfounded mystical foreboding, manuscript upon an erect surface**

Shall I be recalled if I take leave of this locale in the morning?

It is a fact of which you must surely be aware, that you have caused me to vibrate in such a manner that it continued until sunrise.

You who struggle against the social order, you who struggle against the social order, your gown has become ripped due to your actions.

Hah! I know all three (I think!).

  1. “If I leave here tomorrow, will you still remember me?” --Lynyrd Skynyrd, Freebird
  2. Not sure about the first part, but the second is “You shook me all night long” --ACDC, You Shook Me All Night Long
  3. “Rebel rebel, you’ve torn your dress” --David Bowie, Rebel Rebel

Stereo MC’s “Connected”?

EK1. She did not doff her head covering- which in appearance somewhat resembled a rubus- one very akin to those purveyed by consignment. When the atmosphere produced sufficient heat and humidity, she was disinclined to dress in additional layers.

Close - it’s Willie Dixon / Led Zeppelin’s “You know you shook me, you shook me all night long”.

One more:
On several occasions I have made the lenghty journey along the meandering boulevard that finds its terminix at the entrance to your home, and I am certain that said boulevard will remain there for all time.

Shame you’ve got these in the wrong order, Smapti.

The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I’ve seen that road before

  • The Long and Winding Road, The Beatles.

Time for a couple of real stinkers.

ED4 - Coherent thought does not provide any kind of protection beneath this partial control; simultaneously, a problem regarding motive keeps my feelings in a state of stress over not knowing the resolution of this scenario.

ED5 - We have spent an overly extended period of time engaged in Morphean contemplation after the style of the United States, leading me to believe we have strayed from the path.

She wore a raspberry beret, the kind you find in a secondhand store.
A raspberry beret–when it was warm she didn’t wear much more.

Good one!

GB2: If one wishes to acheive the pinnacle of success in the world of popular music, one must expend a significant amount of time and energy.

GB3: I was on a journey, using a powerful American automobile as a conveyance. Interestingly, my footwear would have passed a military inspection, while my hairstyle would not have.

GB4: If you are wondering whether the strong emotions that you are feeling could best be described as love or infatuation, one of the strongest indicators that your feelings are genuine is the tendency of celestial bodies to resemble comestibles.

Yup. That’s it!
