So "We Go On" was a success...
meaning...
we'll do it again.
Of course, we'll use two new songs.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=3WJ1cf3nrLE - YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND
Dark times, eh? But there's a lot of hope! Let's contrast a fitting grand finale:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4G-YQA_bsOU - BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER
Yes, together we can make this.
Official lyrics for the purpose of the challenge:
YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND
When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you got to do is call and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
You've got a friend
If the sky… above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud now
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them
Oh yeah, but don't you let them
You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Oh baby, don't you know about
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
Hey now, all you've got to do is call, Lord,I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend, yeah
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Oh, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER
When you're weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
Oh when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
Oh when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Community score: 347/347
CHALLENGE COMPLETE!
The rules:
- Quotes must be full, exact words.
- You may change punctuation and capitalization and you can work across lines.
- Each title may be used only once for credit, but titles can overlap or you could even use a subset of a title already used.
- You can use any category or quiz format. You could even make a crossword if you want.
- You can participate via team and co-authored quizzes, but you need to submit a total of SEVEN questions over one or more quizzes to qualify for the badgelet (this is a reduction from 2022 - if two people want to evenly split a 15Q quiz, go ahead!). Or author one crossword, those don't have multi-author options.
- The challenge will be judged like any other title-based challenge, so your title must reasonably fit the quiz. This call is (as always) made by the editor who places your quiz online.
And, because it's all about friendship, there's again a community challenge involved in this but this time it's not about categories - it's about fully completing both songs. Repeated lines or phrases of course need to be covered only once.
Conjunctions, articles and so on are free. "Yeah", however, is not, so it might be a good idea to make a quiz with that title, it could get rid of a few bad spots :)
It's strongly recommended (but not required) that you claim your title before writing just to make sure no one else will use the same title. And please, before you write, check that you're not duplicating something another author is already working on.
The challenge is open until the end of the year - you must make a first submit within 2023. You can of course do more than one title if you wish to help with the community aspect, but there's no tiers on this - you get it for one quiz just the same as for ten.
And the badgelet you can earn looks something like this:

Special thanks to editor looney_tunes who has not only been instrumental in the final push to make "We Go On" a success but also chose this beautiful pair of songs for 2023!

My offering: https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/music/and-you-need-a-helping-hand-412920.html I am interesting in claiming: "To Brighten Up Even Your Darkest Nights", but see that "Darkest Nights" has already been claimed. I don't want to take someone else's title, but "To Brighten Up Even Your" doesn't really make sense. Is there a way to make that work for both of us? Reply #204. Jun 19 23, 8:26 AM |

Title can be part of another title, so it works. Reply #205. Jun 19 23, 3:08 PM |

I hope I am choosing right this time, I will take as a title "Your Time Has Come." I checked all the lists and it seems nobody else has claimed it! Reply #206. Jun 20 23, 4:51 AM |

Like to claim the title from the song " You’ve Got a Friend" When people can be so cold? Reply #207. Jun 23 23, 6:06 AM |

There's no 'when' in that bit of the song lyrics, Lord_Digby. "People Can Be So Cold" has already been written by rossian. Reply #208. Jun 23 23, 12:02 PM |

The lyrics are, Now, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend When people can be so cold?.. Or am I missing something. D Reply #209. Jun 23 23, 2:06 PM |

Lord Digby I think there is a slight variation as to the song lyrics and the lyrics in our challenge. Reply #210. Jun 23 23, 3:24 PM |

As it was said that it's OK to overlap if a specific title hasn't already been used, I respectfully submit "'Call Out My Name'" -- https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/people/call-out-my-name-412947.html (I do realize this doesn't add to the overall completion progress -- I apologize) Reply #211.

As I'd like to help finish this challenge up by the end of the year, I shall claim "Your Time Has Come". Reply #213. Jun 26 23, 9:35 AM |

Oops, didn't see that. Thanks, Lottie. I'll take "tears are in your eyes" instead. Reply #215. Jun 26 23, 6:19 PM |

Re reply #215 I think I will unclaim my title so that someone else can have it. I lost inspiration for what I was writing and don't feel like continuing. Reply #217. Jul 07 23, 5:43 PM |

My quiz has been up for a while now: https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/people/to-brighten-up-even-your-darkest-nights-412952.html Just a reminder that someone else has claimed Darkest Nights, so my part is "To Brighten Up Even Your", if that makes sense. Reply #218. Jul 10 23, 1:31 PM |

Is there a cut-off date by which a "claimed" quiz title should be put online? I have a great idea for a quiz using the title "Sail on, silver girl" - the title was claimed back in January, but (according to Lottie1001's useful list) the quiz has yet to appear online.

I don't know if there's a 'cut-off' date, but you could always send 1nn1 a note and ask him about it. I've had an idea for 'Nothing is Going Right'. Reply #220. Jul 12 23, 5:30 AM |
