Welcome to the seventh in the series of Challenges.

 

Between October 1962 and May 1970, The Beatles released 24 singles, 13 EPs, 13 Albums, with a total of 293 tracks.

                                                    HOME IN LYRICS CHALLENGE

Below is a list of home-related words which appear in officially released Beatles songs.

The Challenge is to find the song, or songs, in which each word appears.

 

The Challenge is open to everyone - new members and long-time members.

Most people will know some of the Beatles` songs, so whether you have an extensive collection or not, why not come and join in. I`m sure that the other regular players will make you feel welcome.

 

Hints/clues:

Some words appear in more than one song. In such cases, the number of songs in which the word is in is shown in [x].

Some songs contain more than one of the words on the list. In these cases, you need to find each word and post each answer in a separate post.

Note: you are not looking for other home-related words which may be in the lyrics of Beatles` songs but to find the songs in which the words in the list appear.

 

Should you find any of the words in the list are in songs which are not on my list, as in the previous Challenges, I will re-check my sources and give my verdict with an explanation as to my decision.

 

Answers which are "live" recordings; in BBC sessions; Polydor records [My Bonny or Ain`t She Sweet];

bootlegs; unreleased tracks; or only in the Anthology series; or in Revolution 9, are not accepted.

 

Rules:

Please, no googling, wiki, social media, iplayer, youtube, personal record collection [e.g. album sleeves] in search of the answers. Of course, listening to songs is permitted.

You may submit one answer for one word in one song per post - not two or more songs where the same word appears - and can only post one answer per day.

Each entry should be submitted as  [home-related word] in [name of song it appears in].

 

This Challenge will open at 10pm tomorrow [Thursday 30 May] when you can submit your first answer up to 10pm Friday, when the first results will be announced.

On each subsequent day/night, answers can be submitted after 11pm up to 10pm the next day.

 

The list of home-related words is given in the next post.

Good luck.

RESULTS for Friday 14 June 2019:

 

Six players - @Cleoriff ; @MI5 ; @jonsie ; @Glory1 ; @Bambino ; @pgn - have posted answers for today:

 

@Cleoriff    - HOME = When I Get Home    - correct

@MI5           - HOME = Kansas City               - correct

@Glory1      - HOME = Slow Down                - correct

@Bambino  - HOME = Rock And Roll Music - correct

 

@jonsie        - HOME = You Know What To Do [can`t accept as not released with timeframe of Challenge, later included on Anthology 1]

@pgn [after answer already given by @Cleoriff ] - HOME = All I`ve Got To Do - correct 

 

 

As some players still have answers on their lists, then each player can pm me with all of their answers for "HOME" and, if they have it, the missing answer for "LOCK".

You have until 10pm tomorrow night [Saturday] to pm me with your answers.

I will then post the results for all of the answers for each player; give the answer to any unsolved; total up the number of correct answers for each player [inc correct answers pm`d to me], and declared the winner tomorrow after 10pm.  

 

Thank you all for playing.

As there is no "fastest finger first", and players are not aware of what others have pm`d, you can now pm your list of answers to me.

Good luck.


Forgive me @Mi-Amigo but I thought the cut-off for answers was 10pm. Has this suddenly changed on the last day?

@Glory1 
In previous Challenges, answers have been given which have already been submitted and the player has been allowed to give another answer - even if that other answer was given after the cut-off time.
As pgn gave an answer already given by Cleoriff, and then gave another answer, this was included in the results. So there wasn`t a change on the last day.

Just to show support for @Glory1 's query, I know exactly what she meant.(sorry @pgn, though I think, looking at your comments, you understood it as well?)

 

10pm Friday was the cut off point for everyone, as it was the LAST night. Therefore there could be no rollover to the following day.

 

It had already been made clear, earlier in the thread, that anyone who had any additional answers to give after 10pm was to send those via PM. 

@pgn's final answer after he made two edits was given at 22.03.

 

Before anyone accuses me of being a spoilsport, or rushes to tell me I am too competitive and it's only a bit of fun blah blah blah, just forget it.

 

I am simply supporting @Glory1's comments. According to the rules of the competition, she was correct.

That's all I have to say and won't be entering into any debate about it.

"Don't ask me, I'm back on TNS,", purred the Cheshire Cat, haughtily.

 

(And you're right, I understood perfectly... it was the last day of the Home Lyrics Challenge, and I had a list of HOMEs unvisited - it's hard to know which are and are not "official" Beatles tracks without doing a bit of searching, which you're not meant to do [according to the rules, or guidelines]).

 

And that LOCK one had better be a good'un, 'cos I tried my damndest to spot it - unless it's on the lead-on or lead-out track on one of the original vinyl album releases... Don't know

I agree about the LOCK @pgn ...I'm beatled out looking for that one. T'will be a miracle if it's found innocent

PS I thought it was on World Without Love...then realised the Beatles gave that away to Peter and Gordon rolling_eyes
