Driving Game (Part 66)

@chienfou @kyeh @mossygreen @januarymick @yakkoTDI @metaphore Let me know if there are any typos in the rules or if I missed any info that would help. I think it’s pretty clear, but I also know what I meant to say so of course I would understand it. Same with the basic rules up top now. I’m just going to copy and paste what’s up there, so if you think it should have more or be formatted differently I’m open to suggestions.

@chienfou Thanks again for keeping up on the cheat sheet. I haven’t even bothered to figure out how you’re formatting those or pulling the info, so you’ve certainly been the star of that show since @mike808 stopped.

I can’t believe we might make it a whole year of playing. The staff is always looking for ways to engage with you guys in new ways and I couldn’t be more pleased that this one stuck. Thank you all for playing and keeping it fun.

@arrora1
Welcome!
2 quick things:
If you list the entry as artist - song, with the youtube link on a separate line you will get it to show up as a playable preview shot. Like this

Prince - Purple Rain

Secondly, that one was already played in game 33 so would be a “DUPE” (duplicate) technically…

Someone played off of it without it being challenged so ‘no harm no foul’
Look forward to seeing more input ftom you in the future…

@arrora1 Welcome. I cleaned up the link. Have fun.

@chienfou A dupe (game 45)! But I love it. And we’ve moved on.

@Kyeh
Mea Culpa! must have not put a space between the words or something because I swear I looked for it and was surprised it “hadn’t” been played yet!

@metaphore Thanks for this one. Added to my Spotify list.

@ExtraMedium for weeks now this song has been playing everytime I get in the car, I’ve been waiting for a chance to post it.

@metaphore lol, this is quite amazing…and I just love it when I find new music here…

@ExtraMedium
D’oh… DUPE … see my post a few plays back!
(9 hours ago…)

@chienfou Right after I posted the new rules which clearly suggest searching the current thread, all I did was search the cheat sheet.

@ExtraMedium
“Do as I say… not as I do.”
Some people’s life task is to set a bad example!

@chienfou @ExtraMedium @Kyeh

@Oldelvis Dupe from Driving Game 65.

@Imposter Sorry, this is a dupe from Game 36; want to replace it?

@Imposter
So - Spïnal Tap? Subtle!

@Imposter Brilliant!

@Kyeh Actually, the I has no dot, but it’s the N that gets the umlauts. But I can’t type that because, you know.

@Imposter @Kyeh
like this:

@chienfou @Imposter
Oh, even funnier!

@Imposter I edited your post to add the n̈ for you. Well played.

So just to be fair I need to own up to posting a dupe here, by using THE WRONG TITLE! D’oh! @ircon96 kindly let me know in a whisper, but since I’ve been calling out other peoples’ dupes I am now calling out myself.

@mossygreen Fascinating song! Also in looking it up I found this account of Lee’s influence on Nancy (he’s responsible for "These Boots are Made for Walking.)

… Frank Sinatra wanted him to fix the floundering career of his daughter Nancy. Despite a decade-plus age difference, Mr. Hazlewood and Ms. Sinatra hit it off; they remain close friends. He thought that she was too cutesy, that she needed to seem more like truck-driver-dating jailbait. “He was part Henry Higgins and part Sigmund Freud,” Ms. Sinatra said by telephone. “He was far from the country bumpkin people considered him at the time. I had a horrible crush on him, but he was married then.” (NYT)

@ircon96
I give up?

@chienfou i was going for the number in the titles.

@ircon96
oh…ok, gotcha

For those who don’t know, the title is a play on the word “Jamaica” when spoken in an English accent.

A double, woohoo!

@chienfou Thanks!
