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 just submitted my quiz ("If you need a friend") - my original post was #76 in this thread. As usual, I needed the impending deadline to get this done! Reply #404. Dec 29 23, 11:09 PM |

So the race between the two songs is down to the wire... one quiz with two words missing for each :) Reply #405. Dec 30 23, 5:04 AM |

Here is Comfort You, a backup written in case I Will Comfort You didn't get there. https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/hobbies/comfort-you-414974.html Wes, are you planning to claim all those "and"s that we were told could be ignored? Very clever. https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/forchildren/-and-415006.htmlIt's nearly the new year here, but FT time still has a whole day left in 2023. Reply #407. Dec 30 23, 11:26 PM |

While I covered "So Hard" with a crossword of that title, I really wanted to write a quiz about the hardness of materials but did not think I could get it done in time. However, I have managed to submit the quiz before the deadline. So I don't mind if you include both in the final tally - I was doing neither for a badge as I had contributed twice previously. However, if you only want to count one I would prefer it if the quiz was counted. Thanks for a great challenge Wes. Looks like we met the brief. Reply #408. Dec 31 23, 12:38 AM |

The poor "and" suffered an identity crisis for always being ignored and freebied. While this is not possible to do every year (how many quizzes of this kind can you make?), at least it can now be part of the show once :) Reply #409. Dec 31 23, 2:10 AM |

And with that, we're all complete with 23 hours to spare. Unless someone still wants the badge or anyone feels obliged to take that lone "to" which is still sitting as a freebie in "Your time has come to shine" that is, we can now take a deep breath... until the next songs!

I think we're still waiting for quizzes from MikeMaster99 (if you need a friend) and Chavs (And I'll be) and a crossword from pollucci19 (There). All three should be eligible for the badge, since I don't think they have it yet. Reply #412. Dec 31 23, 6:43 AM |

A correction to my last post - pollucci19 does already have the badge for an earlier crossword. Reply #413. Dec 31 23, 6:46 AM |

I saw Wesley's last message a few hours ago and don't need the badge but thought of a quiz entitled 'to' that will give me the next level of a rainbow badge. So I've written and submitted it. It's OK if you don't want to use it for this Challenge, Wesley, but it's there if you do. Reply #416. Dec 31 23, 12:40 PM |
