    Ginge, you need to read the rules- Only One word from the previous tune. Your last two have included two words ;-)

    I took that to mean just one is needed, Tank.
    Fair enough if not wanting cover versions of each song, but if two words are not allowed then that’s daft.

    Just the last two days had Homer’s Long and The, two words from the previous song Long As I Can See The Light… And technically could argue your own Honey Honey used two words of the previous Just Like Honey.

    One word written twice should comply with the rules. I can’t see any ambiguity in them myself.

    The first and second words of Honey Honey both came from the previous song, Tank. You yourself emboldened both words.

    I can see the reason for the original rule was probably to keep different cover versions of the same song being put up one after the other after the other. Don’t see what’s wrong with two words of totally different songs tbh.
    Are we really expected to check each time that not more than ONE word is the same? That would imo be nonsensical,

    EDIT:
    Can’t be bothered.
    I’ve deleted the two offending songs. :good: .
    Enjoy.

    On second thoughts – I would have said ‘One word only’ Or ‘No more than one word’ from the previous tune.

    So there is some ambiguity there.

    But honey and honey are the same word, so they are only ONE word. How sad is this.. :wacko:

    Some small words like THE and AND are included in most songs and IMO stretching Matrons meaning of songs with one word the same in each song. However it’s suppose to be a fun topic and I quite like it. :good:

    So to piz off Tank a bit. Here’s a song to follow on from Homer’s song

    ME AND YOU and a dog named boo by Lobo

    Matron had better see me as she is guilty of repetition: I put up Bob Seger’s Night Moves several days ago :yes:

    I noticed myself Drone that the was a few songs getting repeated but didn’t want to spoil the topic with trivia matters. Love A boy named Sue quite a fun song.
