Weather In Lyrics Challenge

Welcome to the fifth 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.

                                                               WEATHER IN LYRICS CHALLENGE

Below is an alphabetical list of weather-related words which appear in officially released Beatles songs.

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

 

Hints/clues:

Some words appear in more than one song. In these cases, the number of songs in which the word appears 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 weather-related words which may be in the lyrics of Beatles` songs but those in the list. Should you find any of the words in songs 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

 

No "live" recording; BBC sessions; Polydor records; bootlegs; unreleased tracks.

 

Rules:

Please, no googling, wiki, social media, iplayer, youtube, personal record collection [e.g. album sleeves] in search of the answers.

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.

 

This Challenge will open at 11pm tonight [Sunday 28 April] when the first answers can be submitted up to 11pm tomorrow [Monday], when the first results will be announced.

On each subsequent day/night, answers can be submitted after midnight until 11pm.

 

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

Good luck.

Thank you @Glory1  and @Cleoriff  for your kind comments.

I admit I get considerable pleasure out of putting these Challenges together, not least to listen again to the music and suddenly spot a word which I use in a Challenge. That said, there have been, and no doubt will be in future Challenges, songs in which I have missed one of the words, but the positive view of that is there is always something new to find every time any of us listens to a Beatles song.

 

                                             The COLOURS IN LYRICS CHALLENGE

 

I made a few minor changes to the original planned list of words to be found in the new Challenge - Colours In Lyrics - with a mix of easier to find and more difficult answers, which should add to the fun and, possibly, more of the "that was going to be my next answer" posts and banter between all of the regular members who play.

The new Challenge will be posted on a new, separate thread - Colours in Lyrics Challenge - later today, with a list of answers to be found.

The Challenge will not open until 11pm tomorrow [Monday] when the first answer can be submitted up to 11pm on Tuesday, when the results will be announced. Members will then be able to give their next answer after midnight and up to 11pm on Wednesday.

 

If anyone has any questions about this new Challenge please post on here and I will reply.

Thank you.


Very excited, and can't wait to see what colours are chosen. Looking forward to listening to all the Beatles songs again too, now for a completely different word. Great fun and did I say I can't wait BouncyHappy DanceLOL
