Lyrically Speaking - 1/30/25
Thursday's games will all feature music from a certain random year in each decade, and we start off with the 1960's for which the fascinating year 1966 came out of the mix. All of the songs below were released in, or were big hits in 1966. I'd love to tell you my own personal memories of the year, but my parents were busy being sixth graders at the time. And I do know this is the birth year for at least one of my players....
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. You know the preacher like the cold (preacher like the cold)
He knows I'm gonna stay (knows I'm gonna stay)
2. Every boy wants a girl
He can trust to the very end
Baby, that's you
Won't you wait but 'til then?
3. They'll stone you when you're trying to make a buck
They'll stone you and then they'll say good luck
4. I said baby (Baby)
Now it's for sure (It's for sure)
I got the fever, yeah
And you got the cure (Got the cure)
5. I have always thought
That it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
6. You're the kind of person you meet at certain dismal, dull affairs
Center of a crowd, talking much too loud, running up and down the stairs
7. You
With your masquerading, and you
Always contemplating what to do
In case heaven has found you
Can't you see
That it's all around you
8. (Breaking up) I wish you never said it
(Breaking up) no-no, we'll both regret it
9. Now I know he's the guy who put tears in my eyes
A thousand times or more
Oh, but ev'rytime he would apologize
I loved him more than before
10. And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
Reminds me that I long to be
11. You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give
12. You thought it was a joke,
and so you laughed, you laughed!
When I had said that losing you
Would make me flip my lid,

..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.

Walk Away Renee - The Left Banke. No naughty Krox today! I remember hearing on the radio, many, many years ago, that Walk Away Renee was from 1966 and it always stayed with me, as that is my birth year. I am the Old AF player you were referring to, right?

Re: Lyrically Speaking - 1/30/25
[spoiler
Thursday's games will all feature music from a certain random year in each decade, and we start off with the 1960's for which the fascinating year 1966 came out of the mix. All of the songs below were released in, or were big hits in 1966. I'd love to tell you my own personal memories of the year, but my parents were busy being sixth graders at the time. And I do know this is the birth year for at least one of my players....
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. You know the preacher like the cold (preacher like the cold)
He knows I'm gonna stay (knows I'm gonna stay)
2. Every boy wants a girl
He can trust to the very end
Baby, that's you
Won't you wait but 'til then?
3. They'll stone you when you're trying to make a buck
They'll stone you and then they'll say good luck
4. I said baby (Baby)
Now it's for sure (It's for sure)
I got the fever, yeah
And you got the cure (Got the cure)
5. I have always thought
That it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
6. You're the kind of person you meet at certain dismal, dull affairs
Center of a crowd, talking much too loud, running up and down the stairs
7. You
With your masquerading, and you
Always contemplating what to do
In case heaven has found you
Can't you see
That it's all around you
8. (Breaking up) I wish you never said it
(Breaking up) no-no, we'll both regret it
9. Now I know he's the guy who put tears in my eyes
A thousand times or more
Oh, but ev'rytime he would apologize
I loved him more than before
10. And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
Reminds me that I long to be
11. You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give
12. You thought it was a joke,
and so you laughed, you laughed!
When I had said that losing you
Would make me flip my lid,
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that was a hit sometime around 1966.
Image Bonus: Show me something you might have seen on TV back in the 60's.

Rainy Day Women 12 & 35 - Bob Dylan (You didn't have to have the correct numbers, or even any at all. But you had to have Rainy Day Women. And you also had to have Bob Dylan to get artist credit, which cost two players a point...)

They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha Ha! - Napoleon XIV (Again, I didn't stress on the number as long as you had Napoleon. Is this song really about a dog like I read? That's even nuttier than the song...)
Image Bonus: Show me something you might have seen on TV back in the 60's.
Many interesting 60's shows (and one 70's show), a large number of which I'd never watched or even knew existed. I'm awarding the IBB to Vandal for the Captain's log. I think he might've won an IBB for that before, but what the hell...

ear gets 2 JJC points for the crew watching everyone play LSWE...
Krox gets 2 JJC points for intimate relations with aliens...
Panic gets a JJC point for impossible missions (I played a futuristic spy themed Nintendo game back in the day called Impossible Mission. Yeah, I guess that'll keep you from getting sued...)
jarnon gets a JJC point for copying off Krox's paper (maybe I should add Kopy Kat points to the LSWE, make it like the Match Game)....
melly gets 2 JJC points for Cool Jerk on repeat, and being a Bob Dylan away from a perfect game...

You know, I think I forgot to put Dylan on a previous LSWE game and lost a point. Maybe I just think the Dylan should be implied? Ha!
