$16K: No clue. Try the PAF... but not Arnold's PAF.

This is fairly tough, although given enough time and familiarity with the songs, the only one that makes sense is D (in terms of how it scans). It's a shame his brother dursted him.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$16K Which of these lyrics is from the Neil Diamond hit “America” and not the 1831 song” America (My Country! ‘Tis of Thee)”?

Geo nit wit-ism strikes again. Not terribly upset to see him get dursted after this. Seems only fitting.
Of course were I ever to get on a show I would get knocked out by a geography question.
It would no doubt also be fitting. But it would have to be harder than this one!
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.
