Lyrically Speaking - 1/14/14

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Tue Jan 14, 2014 7:33 am

Welcome to another wonderful edition of Tuesday Wordplay, where the magic word rules all of the day's songs. I have nothing witty to say today, so just go for it already and do your best..... or crash and burn.... or just be Present, whatever floats your boat....

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. Look at the way he holds her hand (ooh-ee-ooh)
Look at the way they dance
I remember when he loved me
I remember how it used to be

2. Heavenly bound
Cause heaven's got a number
When she's spinning me around,
kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog

3. When we both agreed as lovers
We were better off as friends
That's how it had to be
Yeah, that's how it had to be

4. I can see it took so long just to realize
I'm much too strong not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around, oh, yes I will

5. It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
When one would leave and one stay behind

6. There was a time
I was everything and nothing all in one
When you found me
I was feeling like a cloud across the sun

7. I thought I was dreamin' but I was wrong, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, but-a, I'm gonna keep on schemin'
Till I can a-make you, make you my own!

8. And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you

9. Mary, oh, what a sweet girl
Lips like strawberry pie
Sondra, the long hair and pig tails
Can`t make up my mind

10. Well here we are, ladies and gentlemen
The dream we all dream of
(Oh, please!)
Boy versus girl in the World Series of love

11. Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a soul
A beautiful melody
When the nights are long
'Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

12. So here we are face to face
And heart to heart
I want you to know we will
Never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
Cause I see my whole world
I see only you

I don't know any of these so I will have to use a word of my own choosing in each answer.
Spoiler
1. Look at the way he holds her hand (ooh-ee-ooh)
Look at the way they dance
I remember when he loved me
I remember how it used to be

This is the douchiest bunch of songs I have ever seen

2. Heavenly bound
Cause heaven's got a number
When she's spinning me around,
kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog

What kind of douche would write this?

3. When we both agreed as lovers
We were better off as friends
That's how it had to be
Yeah, that's how it had to be

That's how it had to be because you're such a douche.

4. I can see it took so long just to realize
I'm much too strong not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around, oh, yes I will

I'll be a douche, oh yes I will.

5. It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
When one would leave and one stay behind

A-Rod was suspended 100 games for steroids and 62 for being a douche.

6. There was a time
I was everything and nothing all in one
When you found me
I was feeling like a cloud across the sun

Here are some of my favorite forms of the word douche:

7. I thought I was dreamin' but I was wrong, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, but-a, I'm gonna keep on schemin'
Till I can a-make you, make you my own!

Douchebag

8. And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you

Douchenozzle

9. Mary, oh, what a sweet girl
Lips like strawberry pie
Sondra, the long hair and pig tails
Can`t make up my mind

Douchecanoe

10. Well here we are, ladies and gentlemen
The dream we all dream of
(Oh, please!)
Boy versus girl in the World Series of love

Douchepuppy (I just made that one up)

11. Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a soul
A beautiful melody
When the nights are long
'Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

We all live in a yellow douchecanoe, a yellow douchecanoe, a yellow douchecanoe

12. So here we are face to face
And heart to heart
I want you to know we will
Never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
Cause I see my whole world
I see only you

Wrapped up like a douche, another runner in the night

Anything by Justin Bieber

5 Point Bonus: The year Song #10 was released, the artist's hometown team won the World Series of Baseball. Which team was it?

It is probably from this century, so I will guess the Red Sox because they have won the Series the most times, which ironically makes them the Yankees of the 21st Century.

The year is 2095. The Red Sox have won the World Series 26 times this century, the most of any team. The Yankees have not won it in 86 years, and the writers call it the Curse of A-Rod. In the ALCS the Sox go up 3-0 on the Yankees while their fans chant "two-thou-sand-nine." The Yanks then win 4 straight to go to the World Series against St. Louis. The Cardinals are managed by Tony La Doucha, who is considered a genius for his strategies of changing pitchers during every inning and batting the pitcher 8th even though both leagues have had the DH for many years now. The Cards won 120 games during the regular season, but they somehow get only two hits during the Series, and the Yankees sweep it to break the curse.

Never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
Cause I see my whole world
I see only you

[quote="littlebeast13"]Welcome to another wonderful edition of Tuesday Wordplay, where the magic word rules all of the day's songs. I have nothing witty to say today, so just go for it already and do your best..... or crash and burn.... or just be Present, whatever floats your boat....

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. Look at the way he holds her hand (ooh-ee-ooh)
Look at the way they dance
I remember when he loved me
I remember how it used to be

The Look of Love -- Lesley Gore

2. Heavenly bound
Cause heaven's got a number
When she's spinning me around,
kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog

I think this one's just called "The Look" -- Roxette

3. When we both agreed as lovers
We were better off as friends
That's how it had to be
Yeah, that's how it had to be

And now we Host the Golden Globes -- Tina Fey Pohler

4. I can see it took so long just to realize
I'm much too strong not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around, oh, yes I will

Don't Look Back -- Boston

5. It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
When one would leave and one stay behind

Look! A Spoiler! -- Sophie's Choice

6. There was a time
I was everything and nothing all in one
When you found me
I was feeling like a cloud across the sun

Meh. Can't even think of a joke answer. Sounds like 70s Schmaltz, but if it was, I'd probably know it.

7. I thought I was dreamin' but I was wrong, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, but-a, I'm gonna keep on schemin'
Till I can a-make you, make you my own!

Just One Look -- Doris Troy

8. And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you

Second song with the same title -- The Look of Love -- Andy Williams did the version I know best

9. Mary, oh, what a sweet girl
Lips like strawberry pie
Sondra, the long hair and pig tails
Can`t make up my mind

Look out, it's a bunch of Fox News Anchors! -- 4 Non-non-Blondes

10. Well here we are, ladies and gentlemen
The dream we all dream of
(Oh, please!)
Boy versus girl in the World Series of love

U Got the Look -- Prince (+Sheena Easton Rowr!)


11. Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a soul
A beautiful melody
When the nights are long
'Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

Lookin' Like Starsky -- Hutch

12. So here we are face to face
And heart to heart
I want you to know we will
Never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
Cause I see my whole world
I see only you

The whole face-to-face and heart-to-heart thing sounds 80s-ish, but I can't place the song. I think there was one called Heavenly Look, but I don't remember who it was by.


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that contains the magic word of the day. Look at me Now -- Chris Brown featuring Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes originally but I prefer the Karmin remake.

5 Point Bonus: The year Song #10 was released, the artist's hometown team won the World Series of Baseball. Which team was it?

Must be the Minnesota Twins

Did I miss a Mecca Bonus? If there's not any today, just disregard. If there is, I'll guess #2 and #7.
For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled. -- Richard Feynman

Here!
No seriously. I struck out.

#7 was the most familiar but I could not get it. Finally googled it so I could get back to work. Duh!

Now on to the others' post to further my shame...

Obviously, I was aware of 80's Chicago before I had ever heard of 70's Chicago, so I don't even need to mention which half of the band's career I like best... but this song especially stands out as one of my favorites...)

I just googled "dog" and "kiss" together and that's what I came up with.

Until I thought of the Chicken Francaise idea the other day, the picture I was going to post for "three French hens" was someone kissing a chicken. There were disturbingly many of those.
