Lyrically Speaking - 2/10/16

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Wed Feb 10, 2016 7:48 am

Naturally, I didn't get around to making a game for today... and all I came up with this morning is more ideas that would need some time to work out. So, since today is the 10th, I went and looked for songs that peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at #10. Consider this the official LSWE tribute to its competitor TEN!

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


1. Standing in the sunlight laughing
Hide behind a rainbow`s wall
Slipping and a-sliding
All along the waterfall with you

2. But all of her friends
Stuck up their nose
And they had a problem with his baggy clothes

3. Look at that sky, life's begun
Nights are warm
And the days are young
Come get up, my baby

4. You can say anything you like
But you can't touch the merchandise
She'll give you every penny's worth
But it will cost you a dollar first

5. You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake
Don't shut me out

6. And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,
Unforgettable, how they adore you,
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,
Oh, calamity, is there no way out?

7. Once in while
Two people meet
Seemingly for no reason
They just pass on the street

8. Something in the way you love me won't let me be
I don't want to be your prisoner, so baby, won't you set me free

9. I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed
Scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

10. First down you start cheatin' on me
Second down, I was too blind to see
Third down, you know I love you so
Fourth down, baby I got to let you go,

11. They will vanish away like your daddy's best jeans
Denim blue fading up to the sky
And though you want him to last forever
You know he never will

12. I'm looking for a partner
Someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question
Do you want to be rich


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that peaked at.... no, that wouldn't be fair. Just name another song with artist that has something to do with the number 10.

Image Bonus: Find me something that relates to the number 10!

Brown Eyed Squirrel. I don't know who sang it first.

I know it. Back when I was little and going to sports school, I lived in a barn with some cats. Sometimes the big two-footer boss would play a music machine and leave it on all day. When this song came on, the cats would sing it to me, and I would join in with the chorus -- "Sha la la la la la la la la la la te dah." (Note that you have to sing "la" 10 times!) Anyway, they said I was a brown eyed girl. I sing it to Lizbit, because she has nice, prettier brown eyes. Mine are closer to the color of the night.

1. Standing in the sunlight laughing
Hide behind a rainbow`s wall
Slipping and a-sliding
All along the waterfall with you

2. But all of her friends
Stuck up their nose
And they had a problem with his baggy clothes
Spoiler
SkaterBoy - Avril Lavigne
3. Look at that sky, life's begun
Nights are warm
And the days are young
Come get up, my baby

4. You can say anything you like
But you can't touch the merchandise
She'll give you every penny's worth
But it will cost you a dollar first

5. You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake
Don't shut me out

6. And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,
Unforgettable, how they adore you,
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,
Oh, calamity, is there no way out?

7. Once in while
Two people meet
Seemingly for no reason
They just pass on the street

8. Something in the way you love me won't let me be
I don't want to be your prisoner, so baby, won't you set me free

9. I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed
Scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

10. First down you start cheatin' on me
Second down, I was too blind to see
Third down, you know I love you so
Fourth down, baby I got to let you go,

11. They will vanish away like your daddy's best jeans
Denim blue fading up to the sky
And though you want him to last forever
You know he never will

12. I'm looking for a partner
Someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question
Do you want to be rich

This was hard, but I'm going with frank's for the IBB just because, like Manchurian Candidate, Ten Little Indians was one of my favorite books I was assigned to read in school. Plus, he got very lucky my wacky week put me offline all morning so he could sneak his answers in...

I don't know how I missed this yesterday. Usually, checking in on this is part of my morning routine. All I can think is that it wasn't posted yet when I first went online, and I then spent the rest of the day thinking I had already done it.

HEY!! That's insulting!!!!!

OK, almost insulting. It's a little too close to the truth . . . :?

Still, he nailed that pass to Fowler for the two that put the game out of reach. Two touchdown in three minutes with our defenders playing like they were, and the Panther O-line playing like they were? Not happening. . .
