When we were young (and our heart was an open book...), we heard a lot of instrumental songs, some of which were coined "elevator music", while others played on mainstream radio. It turns out that some of these "instrumentals" were adaptations of songs with actual lyrics.
How the game is played: I will play a series of (hopefully) familiar instrumental songs. Your job is to determine whether a lyrical version exists ("YES") or that a lyrical version does not exist ("NO"). Correct answers = 1 Point. Source: YouTube.
Example: "Theme from M*A*S*H (Suicide is Painless)." If you have seen the movie, then you know that a lyrical
version exists.
Note: Some of these instrumental adaptations were recorded long after the original vocal versions. Some instrumental and lyrical versions were recorded around the same time (within a year or two). Conversely, some of the lyrical adaptations were recorded well after the original instrumental was released. Lyrical versions occurring 8 years or more after the instrumental will be scored as both a "yes" and a "no", so you will get a point either way. You can imagine a lot of Weird Al-like parody recordings might have arisen in recent times.
Unlike the names of Liz Taylor's husbands, I predict you will learn something new that you will actually remember for the rest of your life.
