Row, row, row your boat<\/em> is probably what most people think about when they hear the term \u201cSinging in the round\u201d, but I purposely called this post \u201cSonging in the round\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cSonging in the round\u201d is a little mind puzzle challenge I created that I want to share with you. It was a little more difficult than I thought it would be, but at the same time, it was a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

\u201cSonging in the round\u201d does not require singing, but it does require some music knowledge. Here are the rules.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pick one of your favorite song titles.<\/li>\n
  2. Now find a new song where the first word of that title was the last word in the previous title.<\/li>\n
  3. Now keep doing that until you can complete the circle back to the original song.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Other rules:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • The songs can be any music type<\/li>\n
    • They must be somewhat well known<\/li>\n
    • You can go from a single case word to a plural case word (River >> Rivers)<\/li>\n
    • You can use compound words to non-compound words (Heart >> Heartbreaker >> Breaker)<\/li>\n
    • No one-word-title songs as your starting point<\/li>\n
    • Provide artist when possible<\/li>\n
    • Have Fun<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Here was my attempt.<\/p>\n

      Ring of Fire <\/strong>– Johnny Cash
      \nFire and Rain<\/strong> – James Taylor
      \nRain King<\/strong> – Counting Crows
      \nKing of Pain<\/strong> – Police
      \nPain Killer<\/strong> \u2013 Judas Priest
      \nKiller Queen<\/strong> – Queen
      \nQueen of Hearts<\/strong> – Juice Newton
      \nHeart of Glass<\/strong> – Blondie
      \nGlass Onion<\/strong> – the Beatles
      \nOnion Rings<\/strong> – Freddy King<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

      Bonus Points for completing your circle in five songs or less. Next try it with movie titles.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
