Hubby and I had fun playing this game and made it all the way through the alphabet. Then a couple of days ago I started it on another web site, and it seems to be popular. I thought we could have fun with it here too.
Here are the guidelines:
*The person's name does not have to be the first word in the title, but it does have to be *in* the title. For example, that annoying old song with the chorus that goes, "My name is Michael, I've got a nickel," wouldn't count as an M. Michael is not part of the title. It's called "Playground in My Mind" by Clint Holmes, and I'd like to throw Jell-O at the songwriter.
*Alphabetical order goes by the name of the person, not by the title's first word. For example, Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" would follow the Beach Boys' "Barbara Ann" but not Steely Dan's "Ricki Don't Lose That Number."
*Songs with more than one name in the title can count for either one. "Barbara Ann" can be applied to either A or B; the old pioneer standard "Frankie and Johnny" can go for F or J.
*After cycling through the alphabet, it's fine to repeat a title when a difficult letter such as Q comes around again. But it's better if we can come up with as many different songs as possible.
*If it's a name, it counts, even if it's not a person's name in the song. The Beatles' "Penny Lane" is about a place, not a person, but it counts as a P. And an L too for that matter--Lane is also a name.
I'll start with:
Angie Baby--Helen Reddy
