Here's another Tuesday Wordplay game to entertain you on this cold winter's day....

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

1. I'll wrestle with your conscience
You wrestle with your partner

Starting off with a thud...

2. Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace

Born to Be Wild - Steppenwolf

3. So we journeyed to her house, one thing led to an other
I key in the door, I cold hit the floor, looked up and it was her mother

Wild Thing - Tone-Loc

4. Now put your flags in the air and march them up and down
You can live it up, live it up all over the town

Wild Wild West - Escape Club

Don't think I would have gotten this without the word prompt, not that it helped with the first one...

5. You little doll all you do is play, you've got a new baby ev'ry day
But some day it's gonna be me, me and only me.

Wild One - Bobby Rydell

I think the only songs that outnumber the Wild Things are the Wild Ones...and now I know what my krox will be!

6. I think I love you
But I wanna know for sure

Wild Thing - The Troggs

Prescient Points for Me!!! Fanny Fun Fact: I played the bass on this at my sister's wedding.

7. You got sirens for a welcome, there's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while you're dancing in the rain

Wild Squirrels - Duran Durant

Hey, there are boy squirrels, too! Fun coincidence, I was in the 90s/early 00s rabbit hole on youtube last night and played 1985 about 4830954833 times....

8. And the boys do the boogie-woogie
On the corner of the street

Wild Night - Van Morrison

As opposed to John Cougar Mellencamp

9. Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she

Walk on the Wild Side - Lou Reed

Well, the radio didn't censor the subject of my comment, but the ISP did..

10. Gonna meet all my friends
Gonna have myself a ball
Gonna tell my friends
Gonna tell them all

Real Wild Child - Iggy Pop

Who hasn't done a version of Wild One/Real Wild Child? My favourite is Iggy, I think his was the Real Wild Child title. Yes, even more than Joan Jetts, but hers is more of an abbreviated jam session and I think it only has the first verse and chorus. I like Jerry Lee Lewis songs as a whole, but he makes everything sound the same. Even AC/DC has more variety than the Killer... Also, more prescient points! And, yes, my krox is still in play, I think you're probably not familiar with that one.

11. You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left there on a beach.
Well you tell me things
I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach.

12. You are a sweet dream
With a tender heart and beautiful smile
But things aren't what they seem
So I'll let you go and dream for a while

Wild Child - Black Keys

Hey, I'd forgotten about this Child along with the other Ones...

Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that contains the magic word of the day in the title.

I would have bet my bottom dollar that you would have used Wild World and Wild Horses, but I would have lost...so many kroxes, so little time. I first decided on The Wild Side of Life by Hank Thompson, but all of the wild ones made me realize that I have to go with my girl Suzi....

The Wild One - Suzi Quatro

Yep yet another same title, different song....

Image Bonus: If you know the word, you know the drill...

My main man Jamal aka the Blue Arrow! He was just a baby back in college, but I added that because I knew you don't follow college ball and wouldn't put it together. And, unlike krox, I won't make you do the leg work....

This one reminded me a lot of the first time I ever used the Image Bonus in place of the old 5 point bonus, where I was so impressed with how almost everyone came up with a totally different visual interpretation of the theme. And just like Willie Mays was an insta-win for Sprots, so was Wild Thing an insta-win for Esto... so he gets the IBB.

Ahhhh, of course! A few more degrees of separation, and you can reuse that image in my breakfast game!

Seriously, though, once I found out who that was, I assumed he had a nickname with "wild" in it. I even Googled "Jamal Murray wild" and got nothing but articles about WILD games or WILD finishes. Maybe had I remembered to put the "F'ing" in the search, it would have worked...

And I was going to make a joke about how the last basketball player I can remember coming out of Kentucky was some guy from the 90's, but I just realized I can't think of anyone even from the days when I was watching a lot of ESPN....
