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!

Catreona has 'I Will Comfort You' submitted and 'Well' is also in the queue. Reply #362. Dec 20 23, 8:43 AM |

Thanks for that, rossian. I was afraid I'd missed something with all the recent comings and goings. Reply #363. Dec 20 23, 8:56 AM |

This is the first time I've looked here for some time and I see I've missed my chance to reconfirm my choice of 'Well'. I had nearly finished the quiz but understand that rossian has claimed the title now. I'll try again next year. Reply #364. Dec 20 23, 1:47 PM |

Thanks, Rossian. "I Will Comfort You" just got zapped back to the end of the cue. /sigh/ I guess better that than have it come back with a correction note. Reply #365. Dec 20 23, 6:30 PM |

misstified - It seems a pity to waste a perfectly good quiz, and neither you nor rossian need it for the badge. I don't see why we can't have two with the same title, but Wes will have the final word about it. Catreona - I've added you to my list with those two words for a title. Reply #367.

Sorry misstified. If mine wasn't already queued I'd change the title, but you can use the same title (mine's in Music) or add a couple of words to make your quiz usable. If you needed the quiz for the badge I'd pull my quiz but it doesn't seem worth it when both of ours are 'extras'. Reply #368. Dec 21 23, 5:05 AM |

Thanks for your nice replies and suggestions rossian and Lottie1001. I wasn't complaining, just saying, and I'll still submit my quiz. I do realise that I've already got the badge so it doesn't really matter and I'm happy for rossian to get the credit here. Reply #369. Dec 21 23, 8:01 AM |

I managed to get locked out of the site for two days, but am back, and the halfway-completed If 'the Sky Above You Should Turn Dark' will be top of my list once the Christmas stockings have been opened in the morning. Something irritated the system while I was working on it, so I have been twiddling my thumbs for a while and playing solitaire instead of being on FunTrivia. Reply #373. Dec 24 23, 1:48 AM |

Yikes, LT! Glad you're back. Just two remaining questions on "And, You Know..." then the info section for "Of Me". Then, major research for "I Will Comfort You". Did I see up above that quizzes for this challenge only have to have an initial submission this year? I certainly hope so, because there's no way "I Will Comfort You" will get online before the end of the year. Reply #374. Dec 24 23, 3:12 PM |

You need to make the initial submit of a realistic version (no "to be determined" stuff with half-filled questions just to get the timestamp) by 11:59 pm FT on the 31st. We don't want editor availability to determine the yes or no. Reply #376. Dec 25 23, 10:31 AM |

I think that looks as if everything has been promised. If someone sees words that still need to be claimed, please post so I can work with it! Otherwise, I will leave it in the hands of those who have claimed them. Reply #379. Dec 25 23, 11:14 PM |

I've taken a look at the remaining works with my X-ray goggles on. Here's the status: If the sky… above you should turn dark (looney_tunes, submitted) so hard (1nn1, submitted) I will comfort you (Catreona, previously submitted) baby, to see you again (wellenbrecher, submitted) when times get rough (ponycargirl, 80%) of me (Catreona, 50%) I'll be there, (Matthew_07, no progress) So... we may want to do a backup for "I'll be There". Also, after having a look at Catreona's "I Will Comfort You" and the editor note on it, I'd be slightly uncomfortable counting it in the current state. It's looking like it may take a very major rewrite. So we may want a second opinion (aka quiz) here, possibly just "Comfort You" - wellness and spa, maybe? Reply #380. Dec 26 23, 6:01 AM |
