Can it really be we have already reached the halfway point of the 2014 LSWE? That must mean it is time to select the LSWE All Star teams. Remember to pick the players with the best first half, and not just the washed up legends... after all, This One Counts® for home field advantage in the LSWEWS!

It's Free For All Friday, so let's conclude the first half with our very first matching game of the season! Yes, please, hold your wild applause! These songs can all be paired up based on some common theme that you will have to figure out on your own... or, you can just copy off of TBone's paper since he is the theme expert this year...

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 1 point for each correct match...

1. You want a piece of my heart
You better start from start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby lets go

2. Peace, love and understanding
Tell me is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

3. We've come too far to give up who we are
So let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars

4. All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you

5. Cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust
I never sleep

6. I begin to touch, but you wouldn’t let it
It never seemed to be the right time
I started to give up down to the limit
And then you changed your mind, whoa

7. With all my heart I love you, baby
Stay with me and you will see
My arms will hold you, baby
Never leave, 'cause I believe

8. My friends think I've gone crazy,
My judgment is getting kinda hazy
My status is gonna be affected
If I keep it up like a lovesick crackhead

9. And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you, be with you night and day

10. They tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
these wicked women, oohh they just persist
maybe you think it's cute, but girl I'm not impressed
I tell you one time only with my business please don't me

11. Toe to toe,
Dancing very slow,
Barely breathing,
Almost comatose

12. A performance deserving of standing ovations
And who would have thought it'd be the two of us
So don't wake me if I'm dreaming
Cause I'm in the mood come on and give it up

Matches?

Kroxquo Bonus: For four points, give another pair of songs with artists that would be a good match in today's game.

5 Point Bonus: What is the minimum number of points a player can have at the halfway point of the 2014 LSWE if they have played every game so far?

Hey clones! This is Jim Rome reporting live from Sochi. I'm taking a short break to play LS and I promise to have a take and not suck.

1. Workin' for the Weekend - Loverboy

2. Peace, love and understanding
Tell me is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

You know what else there's no place for? Yellow water. Come on. Russians. How hard is it to get clean water. You have an entire mountain range covered with snow. Here's a science fact: water is just melted snow. It's not gray or pink or even yellow, unless you happen to be hosting the I-Killed-a-Dog, ehhhhh, Ididarod. But that's a topic for another day.

4. Don't Stop - Fleetwood Mac

5. Cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust
I never sleep

I think the Denver Broncos could have used a little mouth to mouth at halftime during the Super Bowl. Then again, I think a heart transplant was more in order. Way to lay down on the biggest stage of all, Peyton. Again.

6. I begin to touch, but you wouldn’t let it
It never seemed to be the right time
I started to give up down to the limit
And then you changed your mind, whoa

I see Shaun White changed his mind about performing in the slopestyle contest so he can concentrate on the halfpipe. I'll tell you what he's concentrating on: sparking up the full pipe. Shaun and his blunt-loving friends would rather toke than practice. Word of advice, Shaun: Don't eat the Cheetos. They were made with Sochi water.

9. New Year's Day - U2

12. A performance deserving of standing ovations
And who would have thought it'd be the two of us
So don't wake me if I'm dreaming
Cause I'm in the mood come on and give it up

I predict there will be plenty of Standing O's during the figure skating competition. And then the good folks in Sochi will realize there are gay athletes in their city. Walking, talking gay people, right here in the streets. Let's hope they fare better than the stray dogs.

Matches?
No locks + hotel rooms
Toilets + don't flush the paper
WiFi + Won't Fi
Greek Yogurt + Not for Americans
Hot Showers + You Wish
Potable water + Drink Vodka instead

Kroxquo Bonus:
Have a take + Do not suck

aaaacchhhh!!!!!!!!! Too late now, but I just figured it out.

Spoiler

1 goes with 3, and 2 goes with 9, and 7 goes with 11.

the rest would've been blind guesswork.

A krox would be "All Shook Up" by Elvis with "Baby Loves To Rock" by Cheap Trick from the album "All Shook Up".

Can it really be we have already reached the halfway point of the 2014 LSWE? That must mean it is time to select the LSWE All Star teams. Remember to pick the players with the best first half, and not just the washed up legends... after all, This One Counts® for home field advantage in the LSWEWS!

It's Free For All Friday, so let's conclude the first half with our very first matching game of the season! Yes, please, hold your wild applause! These songs can all be paired up based on some common theme that you will have to figure out on your own... or, you can just copy off of TBone's paper since he is the theme expert this year...

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 1 point for each correct match...

1. You want a piece of my heart
You better start from start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby lets go

"Working For The Weekend" - Loverboy

2. Peace, love and understanding
Tell me is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

3. We've come too far to give up who we are
So let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars

4. All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you

"Don't Stop" - Fleetwood Mac

5. Cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust
I never sleep

6. I begin to touch, but you wouldn’t let it
It never seemed to be the right time
I started to give up down to the limit
And then you changed your mind, whoa

7. With all my heart I love you, baby
Stay with me and you will see
My arms will hold you, baby
Never leave, 'cause I believe

8. My friends think I've gone crazy,
My judgment is getting kinda hazy
My status is gonna be affected
If I keep it up like a lovesick crackhead

9. And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you, be with you night and day

"New Year's Day" - U2

10. They tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
these wicked women, oohh they just persist
maybe you think it's cute, but girl I'm not impressed
I tell you one time only with my business please don't me

11. Toe to toe,
Dancing very slow,
Barely breathing,
Almost comatose

12. A performance deserving of standing ovations
And who would have thought it'd be the two of us
So don't wake me if I'm dreaming
Cause I'm in the mood come on and give it up

"Hella Good" - No Doubt

Matches?

Kroxquo Bonus: For four points, give another pair of songs with artists that would be a good match in today's game.

5 Point Bonus: What is the minimum number of points a player can have at the halfway point of the 2014 LSWE if they have played every game so far?

You DO realize that you jinxed me with that "copying off T-Bone's paper" comment, don't you? Nice goin', Beastie Boy....

Hard to say since you give JFF points for pretty much anything. Maybe even this answer.
