Random music association game!!!

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Random music association game!!!

This is an idea stolen from the forums at Last.fm...You start with a song (and band), and the next person names another song (and the band) that shares at least one word with the previous song. Please post in the following format:

Artist - Song

Also, bold-typing the word that the song shares with the previous song is nice as well. Here is an example...


The Beatles - Let It Be

Radiohead - Let Down


Let's see how far we can go ...No googling! I'll start with the one I just used...

Radiohead - Let Down

OFFICIAL RULES

1. Word must be exactly found in song title. For example, if the previous song posted has the word "Television" in it, the next song cannot be linked using the word "Vision."

2. Linking words must be more than 3 letters (Yes, I'm aware my example does not follow that rule).

3. The same linking word cannot be used 2 times in a row. For example,


The Beatles - Let It Be
Radiohead - Let Down
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away


That cannot be used, you must link different words each time.

4. Linking words should be emboldened in the next post, like is done above. If you need help with the code to embolden your text, click on the Forum Codes button in the Reply to Thread screen.

5. Do not purposely try to end the thread by choosing a song that is impossible to continue off of. Using difficult songs is recommended, but using impossible songs is frowned upon, and the songs can be disregarded from this thread.

6. No double posting

(And yes, I know this song sucks but it's all I can think of ATM.)

Disturbed-Shout 2000

Shout, shout, let it all out.

Now is someone supposed to find another song with the word let in it or can I pick another one? I'm still not entirely sure how this works.

Guillemots - If the World Ends

Post Thu Jun 29, 2006 1:55 pm

Killa, you're supposed to link it with song titles, not lyrics from the song. And you can pick any word from the song, just saying you should boldface the word that links it with the previous song.

R.E.M. - It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

Oh, I like this one:
Frank Zappa and the Mothers of invention (from Lumpy Gravy, 1967):
"Take your clothes off when you dance"

btw:@ para (and everybody else): could we exclude "the" - it's too obvious

edit: when I started the previous post was not here, I swear. But it's a good example for my "btw"

@zazie: Good idea. How's about you have to match words with over three letters, and you can't match the same word as the last person.

Voxtrot - Mothers , Sisters, Daughters, Wives

Post Fri Jun 30, 2006 5:16 pm

Haha...You're right Accushot...You've got me there...how about Talkin' 'Bout the Smiling Deathporn Immortality Blues (Everyone Wants to Live Forever)...lol

Zazie: I agree with you, we should establish a 4-letter rule...Linking words can be no shorter than 4 letters...If everyone agrees...I think the rule should take effect now....

As for the next song...

Wolf Parade - Dear Sons and Daughters of Hungry Ghosts
