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!

In Reply #310 Looney_Tunes claimed a title leaving "Hey now" hanging but had a plan to cover it should no one claim it. I knew a quiz I could both quickly and relevant so I wrote to LT to determine if it was OK to claim the tile - I was given a green light but I have also another title in the works. So I didn't claim it straight away. However, no one has claimed it so I will, as I have just about finished the quiz. So you can add "hey now" to the claimed topic list, which with a bit of luck will be able to be bolded soon after. Thanks LT Reply #323. Dec 08 23, 10:01 PM |

Note - in order to not have a last second issue with claimed titles the author is no longer interested in doing, please reconfirm your claim if you have made one BEFORE Dec 1. Older claims not reconfirmed by the 15th will be cancelled. If you made your claim in December, you do NOT need to reconfirm - please don't clutter the thread by confirming a recent claim. Thanks!

'All you've got to do is call Lord' and 'When You're Down' have been submitted. I will now get to work on 'The sky above you should turn dark' - a second solar eclipse quiz for the challenge! Reply #326. Dec 10 23, 5:23 PM |

It seems like everything left for this challenge has been claimed already. Reply #327. Dec 10 23, 6:23 PM |

Wes has a list towards the bottom of the previous page. But by my reckoning the following words still aren't covered, so anything with those in will still need doing. Of course you can add any of the words each side of these to make a usable title. of me and if you let them and you know to see you again Also watch this space to see if some of the titles claimed a long time ago get confirmed, they might be up for grabs, soon.

I am expecting some of the claimed titles will not be confirmed. If this occurs there will need to be a mad flurry of activity from the small 'core' group that has been doggedly pursuing this challenge. Reply #329. Dec 10 23, 11:17 PM |

I've already covered 'the sky above you' part of that line, L_T, just in case it affects your plans. Reply #330. Dec 11 23, 2:17 AM |

Rossian, I knew the first part was covered, but needed it to include it to get a sensible title. The verb needed a subject. Reply #331. Dec 11 23, 5:32 PM |

Actually "you should turn dark" could probably have been a "Star Wars" quiz :) Reply #332. Dec 12 23, 5:05 AM |

Here's 'When you're down' - and I thought of the canyons all by myself, it was already being written when Wes posted his suggestion. https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/geography/when-youre-down-414817.html Reply #335. Dec 12 23, 12:04 PM |

The school's end-of-year staff carols this morning inspired me with an idea for 'You Know', so I have set that up in a template to complete before I finish up the sky turning dark, as it is more seasonal! Reply #336. Dec 12 23, 9:05 PM |

Do we still need 'I'll Be There'? Lottie has this one listed as completed https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/music/ill-be-there-414119.html and reply 265 makes it clear it was written for the challenge. Reply #340. Dec 13 23, 10:57 AM |
