Oops me bad!!

(Ode) To Big Blue ~ he never mentions Ode so ???
Similarly in (ballad of the) Yarmouth castle he does mention the ships name but like "Ode" omits "Ballad" so??

[Jesse Joe]

The Gypsy ...not really...


he says "that old gypsy"... in the song... never mentions "The Gypsy" lol !

I'm having flashbacks to geosteve's infamous quizzers (remember the "dot" rules ?)

How about 'Steel Rail Blues'

[jj]

these are ALL legitimate responses except for the one Royal (a hint as to who the author was) blunder by a member. No penalty but it sure was a flagrant fowle.

[Melissa]

Yeah, and not even observing the protocol of it all.........

[mandoann]

How about Song for a Winter's Night? Does that fit with the rules? :)

I guess that is a moot point Ann
In fact the song's lyrics do include almost two of the five words (i.e nearly 40%) in the full title (albeit a singular night not in quantity) . so if that does not qualify at 40% then Seven Island Suite with 66 2/3 % should not be in the list either
then you should also disqualify Steel Rail Blues also 66 2/3%
and BALLAD OF THE Yarmouth Castle (40%)
and ODE TO Big Blue and The Gypsy (both 50%)
AND wot aboot The List then (both words appear in the lyrics although admittedly not adjacent to each other
In addition CRT has 33 1/3%
