SUMMER CAMP SING-ALONG

[caliten]

Hey there campers! No camp experience is complete without at least one sing-along, so let's get one started. The idea here is that I'll provide a line from a song, and the next person has to ID the song title and singer, then post their own lyric for the next person to ID. Here's an example:

"I see a little silhouetto of a man"

and the next person responds Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, and then posts a song lyric (just one line) of their own choosing. Make sense?

Let's get this singing started then!

"Ev'rybody dance now!"

(ps - I apologize ahead of time if you spend the next hour singing either of those songs for the rest of the day.)

[AmieN1]

Awe- Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle (every father/bride dance song!!)

Mine:

sugar, Yes, please
Won't you come and put it down on me

[Stefanie]

I had to google that one Corrin.
Photograph by Ed Sheeran

Mine is...
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair.

[corrin]

That is not one I had heard of, so I Googled it ...

my wish by Rascal Flats. This is showing all sorts of songs I haven't heard yet, it is a great way to try out some new songs!

So you can keep me inside the pocket of you ripped jeans...

[Tedasgram]

By Keala Settle, This Is Me from The Greatest Showman

Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small

[shannonc]

No Rain by Blind Melon (ooooooh blast from the past!)

Ok ok, here's mine...

"I am not a stranger to the dark,
Hide away, they say,
'Cause we don't want your broken parts"

[shannonc]

Ooooh I knew this one without looking!

[IntenseMagic]

*Sigh* Taking me back to my younger days... That's Purple Rain by Prince

DH and I were texting these lyrics to each other yesterday:

"I like watching the puddles gather rain"

[kimkern72]

Come To My Window - Melissa Etheridge



If you know what I'm singing about up here

[caliten]

Googling is perfectly acceptable.

[caliten]

And those two dudes are in the band They Might Be Giants.

I cheated and used Google because I had no idea.

Jet Song - West Side Story


My lyrics:

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine...

[slfam]

Wow! I had to look that one up and watch it on youtube! So, that little ditty was called Particle Man and was brought to us by Songwriters: John Flansburgh / John Linnell

"When you're a Jet you're a Jet all the way"

[caliten]

Merry Happy by Kate Nash, and I have to admit, I don't know that I've heard this one before.

And I'm going to offer up this one, more than just a single line, because my 10 yo daughter belted it out (very unexpectedly) in the car this evening:

Person man, person man
Hit on the head with a frying pan
Lives his life in a garbage can
Person man

but after this, back to just one line, please.
