Morning Fun, Version II: I Can Name That Song in Seven Words
Well, it's not much of an extravaganza, is it? I was going to have a catered affair with chocolate fountains and scantily clad bar wenches pouring Guinness, but what will all the snow, I had to cancel. Sorry.
Instead, I'll opt for playing the party games without all that trouble of actually throwing a party.
Today's game is more or less a continuation of the extremely popular (600+ comments) seven word game. The idea comes from reader Rob, who suggested that we play the same game, but extend to other categories. Sort of like twenty questions, but with seven instead of....twenty questions.
Instead of movies, we're going to do songs. Without using ANY of the lyrics in order (so words in the lyrics are ok, just don't exactly quote the lyrics).
Example: Man goes far away, woman decorates trees.
Which would be Tie A Yellow Ribbon. Now that I've got that horrid song stuck in your head, you may commence playing.

English guys play jazz. Hipsters don't like.
