Thought I'd start a fun little Beatles game. Just write one line from any Beatles or solo Beatles song but don't say what song it's from. The first person who guesses the song just write its title next to the line, then start the ball rolling again with a new line from a different song for the next person to guess and contribute.
I'll start:
"He looked at me and he laughed at you."

I am 57 years old, and I have enough trouble remembering lyrics in Beatles songs now. This might be better if it were just Beatles songs?

"He looked at me and he laughed at you." The Mess
What a great era for Paul, Fred! This is fun.
I'll give this a try:
"When a rattle of rats had awoken, The sinews, the nerves and the veins."

Oops, we have a double. How about a sub-rule that one person answers the two or more entries and then leaves their contribution? Also, it has to be one line from a song, not two.

THE WORD
Fred, can you clarify that first part about sub-entries?
(I left two lines in my song only because I figured it might be too difficult, but if you like, I'll make sure it's only 1 line in the future).
I'll repeat mine:
"Take it or leave it, you're a blind drunk."

"Take it or leave it, you're a blind drunk." Dead Giveaway (Ringo) "But they was louder at the Rainbow". As for the sub-rule, how about this: If two or more persons matches the correct song to a line at the same time, either the person after them has to answer the line to both songs and then leave their contribution, or one of them voluntarily deletes their post till the line is answered before proceeding with the game. Does that work?

Fred, I'm thinking this might have to be played on an "honor system". Because your "rainbow" line was one of those cases where I heard it in my head but I couldn't place it -- arrrggghhhh!
So I conveniently GOOGLE'd it, and I found it immediately (ditto when I checked back to see if my "blind drunk" line would come up).
