Is sapphire the conch? I don’t think I’ve seen any non sapphire answers for nine.

:sigh: :o Raises hand meekly.
I don’t know if I’ve ever been in the bottom 5 before, but this one could do it. :smack:
Simmerdown is #45.
(And 42fish is #42 again. Bizarro!
Gangster Octopus also missed Sapphire, FWIW, if it makes you feel better. But he (she?) didn’t match your aquamarine.
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.
Busy day today - I’ll score this from work tomorrow.
Have a great day!
Since Rebo won’t score till tomorrow, we’ve still got time for four more entries. I marked the game “still open,” since people may look at the post count and assume not.

Wiggles reference? If so, well played!
That’s freaking hilarious!
That’s a must for your sig line!
…on first read, I thought “What a stupid question!? This is an obvious conch… the Creature from the Blue Lagoon!”:smack:
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…
That happens to me quite often when I score these…
Nothing. It’s just an attempt to get you to be more varied in your answers.
