Great idea Ann, I'm glad it turned to a thread of its own, it's great ! My first submit:

Within "End of all Time" :

Is there anybody home, is there anyone in there
Who can tell me where I am ~gl

'Is there anybody home' excerpt from above is self-explanatory, but that never stopped me ! Same as song by same title wording as these in green here, within that song "End of All Time" - which I guarantee will after 3 - 4 listenings, will start creeping in your subconscious and you'll find yourself humming it etc,. while you do dishes, or whatever....

Again , Congratulations MandoAnn, excellent thread idea ! very fun..... ( just a hint - after about post # 300 they need dancing girls or a monkey and a kid or something, a good dramatic crisis, anything...lol...to come through to ease the sweat of intense thinking that you can subtly ..actually hear....lol.. its kind of a whirrrrrrscreech....grind, rewind....scriiiiiicccccchwhirrrrrrrrrrBANG GOT IT ! -sound, followed right away by the victorius sound said to be "a match (Ohio Blue Tip) lighting... as discussed in the the infamous 'were you there GL moment' in the end of the AOL alt.musc.lightfoot pre-corfid days , when Tele kidd I think it was amidst many previous conclusions of same, became famous within the GL clan for the "sound" in Cabaret - where the song seemingly splits into a whole new song part. with a kuishh! sound of a can opening, then a moment of quaffing, then a satisfied "unhh" of some beverage that tasted good, there was much speculation, Government was monitering us, their cryptanalysts thought we were on to something....the sound....besides the Blue Tip Match, many said a lighter (Zippo, of courshe). others said a can of beer - Budweiser by the fizzle... I said a can of Diet Pepsi Lime, because of the heady , yet understated, upon swirling it around in your mouth to obtain the character, the bouquet, and that lolligagging, it ultimately ws the definative character of Lime bubbling without sugar that produced, in my mind "It has the giggling sparkle of Swiss Maidens, blushed yet pleased by the attention of the rural swains" ...lol and it actually, I noticed, made into the Stonewall TJ157 vistory of "Cabaret' - by showing astutely a collage of the afore mentioned theories. he showed a Bic lighter, a match, A can of Bud open, and some beer poured into a short cocktail glass or double/triple shot glass in some bars, and the person making that long first drag off the cigarrette..... he played it perfect..and addressed all theories of the sound.....lol..... anyway......the sound of "thinking" in here was reminiscent of 'Lyrics quizzers' where we were honoured by your introduction of the stand-alone thread-worthy nature of the game idea, were encouraged to make it its stand-alone game - i think first by Jesse Joe (very astute call , Jesse) and..here it is again: CONGRATULATIONS ! very good idea, Ann...

[jj]

ditto

holy, you guys are quite good at the SWAS challenge

Song: Brave Moutaineers

Lyric: And I need to be there
When the world gets too heavy and the Shadows cross my mind
Like brave mountaineers
We never were much bothered by time

[mandoann]

I think Char's due for another raise, so I've got a challenge:

Name a song title on TWIF which is contained in the lyrics of two songs from IYCRMM (and name the two songs).

Char will be waiting for your response!

[Oh, Linda]

Would that be "walls" from The Way I Feel?

Correct songs 1) Your Love's Return (lyrics "Climbing your windows and walls)

and

2) Cobwebs and Dust (lyrics "tear down the walls, tear down the walls)

[mandoann]

It would be, Linda! Wow, you did it in 9 minutes; I'm very impressed!

Hope you enjoy your raise, Char!

[mandoann]

Time for a new SWAS challenge:

Name a song title contained in the lyrics of a song which is the title track on an album....

Char's waiting patiently for her raise....

i can't remember if the rules to this edition are GL tunes only or not

if not, then I Used to Be a Country Singer (i did, lol)

"So I grabbed my axe and we sang a song in two part HARMONY"

[jj]

or from prior submission, WALLS is the title track from DSMMN:

Your Love's Return ...."climbing your windows and WALLS"

"So I grabbed my axe and we sang a song in two part HARMONY"

those two are fine SWASs but my intention was that one song would be the title song from the album/CD (i.e. the album title). Does that make sense?

Thanks for your effort, sorry for the confusion!

p.s. As far as I'm concerned, it just needs to be one GL's recorded...

[jj]

i think you're right...i guerss i was giving the 'lead' track

is it one that hasn't been provided already cos i know Shadows has already been given in two different occasions ... and i can't take credit

[mandoann]

hi jj,

I don't think it's been given yet; I'm keeping a spreadsheet of entries and this song pair isn't there, unless I missed some LOL!

So U "used" 2 B a Country Singer?

kinda...and now i'm kinda the maid


ok, mandolynn...err, mandoann

so you mean, let's say DSR?

'you washed away all SHADOWS from my past'

[mandoann]

Yes! I hadn't even thought of that one! Bravo

There you go, Char!

There's still at least one more of the same "type"....

[jj]

boy, this game has made my eyes burry...blurrier than usual

did ya say there was some sort of prize dough?

yeast of midnight..."vowing to live till the End Of All Time"?

[mandoann]

You've got the right lyric, but title isn't (y)east of Midnight!

BTW, I just realized your other entry, DSR/Shadows is a double! (both title tracks!) woo-hoo

Well, like I said before, I'd like to say you win a free concert ticket and backstage pass. I'd like to say it but can't! Well, I know I couldn't get a backstage pass, unfortunately!

[jj]

Hi everyone,

I've been having so much fun attempting Steve's quizzers, I forgot the SWASs. There are at least 6 of them which haven't been identified.

To start with, I wanted to list the SWASs already identified, along with the person who found them to give credit where credit is due (hope I didn’t miss anyone!):

Song #1/Song#2 (name)

Approaching Lavender/Shadows (Jesse Joe)
All I’m After/Tattoo (Char)
Rosanna/Softly (jj)
Broken Dreams/If I Could (Jesse Joe)
Affair on 8th Avenue/Softly (Jesse Joe)
Song for a Winter’s Night/Softly (jj)
Brave Mountaineers/Shadows (roachthroat)
Seven Island Suite/A Passing Ship (roachthroat)
Rosanna/The Way I Feel (Jesse Joe)
Rosanna/Shadows (Jesse Joe)
Dreamland/If You Need Me (RM)
Now and Then /Walls (?)
Ordinary Man/Restless (RM)
CRT/Restless (jj)
Someone to Believe In/Broken Dreams (Shut Up & Deal I’m Losing)
Did She Mention My Name/Looking at the Rain (buzzard)
I Used to Be a Country Singer/Harmony (Shut Up & Deal I’m Losing)
Why Should I Feel Blue/If There’s a Reason (Shut Up & Deal I’m Losing)
End of All Time/Is There Anyone Home (Geosteve)
Cobwebs and Dust/Walls (Oh Linda)
Your Love’s Return/Walls (Oh Linda)
Dream Street Rose/Shadows (jj)

I'm thinking of ways to give clues for the "new" ones.

Have fun!

[mandoann]

Oops, I forgot jj's SWAS: Waiting for You/End of All Time (sorry jj)

[jj]

no prob, mando

(?)=Jenney

it's quite a clever game....are the 6 new ones falling mainly under a new song or a new song within category? follow?

either way the shallow well has pretty much run dry here

[RM]

I scanned the list a couple of times and didn't see this one :

Too Late For Prayin'/Broken Dreams

"let us stem the tide of broken dreams"
