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

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!

I have an idea for "I'll be There", so will get to work on a backup to cover that. But I will wait to see if the original claim gets completed - there are still a couple of days, and Matthew_07 would get the badge. Reply #383. Dec 26 23, 4:41 PM |

You could always submit as "I'll be there, yeah" if that fits your plan. It would not lock Matthew out that way, even if yours went online first. Reply #384. Dec 26 23, 5:56 PM |

Nope, mine is specifically on songs with that exact title. I will get it finished and submit with a message asking to have it held until Dec 31, to mimimise the risk of depriving someone of the badge. That will give me a bit of time of I need to do any further work. Reply #385. Dec 26 23, 6:46 PM |

Lottie, My "To See You Again" is already up--you can take it off the list of incomplete. ;) Reply #386. Dec 26 23, 7:13 PM |

Now working on a Hobbies quiz titled 'Comfort You', which will be ready in a day or two, in case Catreona's doesn't make it across the line. Reply #387. Dec 26 23, 10:09 PM |

Catreona's is a case of "valid by the rules", so it won't affect the formal completion criteria. The one (minor) worry I have is that the final product might be very different due to the editor requirements than what is in the system on 12/31, which would in my opinion taint the victory a tad. Even if that were the case, however, it will be part of the resulting scavenger! Reply #388. Dec 27 23, 4:01 AM |

'If the sky above you should turn dark' is online. I have learned so much about eclipses this year! https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/scitech/if-the-sky-above-you-should-turn-dark-414863.html Reply #389. Dec 27 23, 4:01 AM |

Just four left. Used the X-ray vision again to check progress. of me (Catreona, essentially complete) I'll be there, (Matthew_07, no progress) so hard (1nn1, submitted) I will comfort you (Catreona, previously submitted) Now the other mystery remains... just how many players will try to jump on the train for a last second badge this year? The 27th was about when we started seeing some hectic last minute activity in 2022. Reply #390. Dec 27 23, 4:08 AM |

Wes, while I can't give an ironclad promise that "I Will Comfort You" will be resubmitted by 11:59 PM Fun Trivia time the Thirty-first, I'm on it and don't foresee changes as monumental as you're concerned about. It will remain essentially the same quiz, only with more substance. Reply #393. Dec 27 23, 3:02 PM |
