Pre-Lyrically Speaking post

I'm not going to make up a long post about rules, because I think everyone knows them by now. Don't cheat, have fun, don't nitpick.
But I would greatly appreciate it if a large percentage of those of us who are left here played along, even those who don't consider themselves experts on pop music. I've tried to include several games that allow for points to be scored even if you don't know any lyrics, like today's. The more who contribute, the more fun the game is. I've got 20 games planned, which means the last one will stretch over Labor Day weekend. It would be awesome to have 20 BBs names on the leaderboard by then. If you know someone who doesn't show up any more, but you know how to get in touch with them, encourage them to stop by and play just one day.
As part of my research for one of these games, I was sifting through posts on this board from late 2007. What struck me was how everyone was looking out for everyone else. Granted, part of that was the switch to the new Bored, but still, it was quite a contrast to the Bored traffic today. Let's see if we can recreate that for a month or so.
Disclaimer: these games are nowhere near as creative or well-thought-out as lb's LS games, or Frank's movie games. I hope you enjoy them nevertheless.
All right, let's do this. Somebody wake up TBone. lb, turn down the Mecca Muzak. Fishie and Fanny, come back!
LET'S PLAY!
