> [@Wheelz](#): > > Funny… The exact opposite in my case. My first impulse was \*The Blues Brothers \*and I ended up with _Blue Lagoon_, opting to go literally with “Blue” rather than “Blues.” Looks like \*Blue Velvet \*is the runaway favorite anyway – go figure. My first thought for movie was _Blue Denim_, from 1959. It was about teenage sex and even though there wasn’t any nudity, it was controversial. Then I thought, nah, nobody’s gonna remember that movie, so I went with _Blue Velvet_. I’ve seen threads on that movie here. I was sure that the answers for Song would be all over the place, but they’re not. I couldn’t figure out whether to go with an R&B hit or a “blue” (sad, lost my lover) song. ---

What threw me off was the juxtaposition of “blues” and " '50s" – not a decade particularly distinctive with regard to the “real” blues. Like you, I figured it would end up with 40 different answers, so I didn’t make any particular effort to come up with something that might actually score. ---

I changed it from “animal” to “creature”, so that I could include insects. I don’t think of insects as animals, really… Going to start scoring this… ---
