New Music Game

“New Music Game” can be interpreted as a game about music that is new to me.

“New Music Game” can be interpreted as a new game about music such that the music might be awesome old classic rock that really fits the week’s category

I guess I sort of assumed the latter, not the former. I did win one week (the only week I scored a point) with a depleted old classic in Bohemian Rhapsody

I interpreted the “new” to mean a new game, not a game for new music. The opening post talks about this compared to the old music game we used to play on the AO - BotB.

But I understand the stakes are low and people will do what they want.

Anyone want to be a guest host next week? I’ll be a little busy and it’d be nice for someone else to take entries and create the poll. You can create your own category.

@IPD I think you are referring to “diegetic music” essentially

I have a specific connection to my submission, but since I got too chatty last week I will somehow not go into more detail until votes are cast…

Nevermind WHO STOLE MY SONG?!

This is exactly what I was going for this round. I think it simplifies things

Lol, that was quick. Doubt it was me but hey you never know.

This makes sense & creates the distinction between a musical, where the characters express emotion through song for no apparent reaason, versus shows where the characters know they’re singing.

I think this clears my entry as okay. :+1:

Bumping for any more entries. Try to get them in tonight, up to like 9 or so right now

I’ll do it if nobody else wants to.

Looks like you might get the job. Thanks for volunteering

Submit a (diegetic) song from a movie or tv show

Poll out early this week as advertised. It goes without saying that songs in this game sometimes have language/themes that possibly could maybe once in a while not be the most suitable for work…I’ve marked the Reservoir Dogs link as maybe NSFW because of violence in the clip.

Maybe there might be plot spoilers in some of these clips too? Depending on your definition of spoiler. The Reservoir Dogs and Elizabethtown clips probably come the closest to being a plot spoiler?

Enjoy!

Oh I also didn’t put the artists in the poll, but instead the movie/show. It’s kind of ambiguous this week and I’ll make a final call on which artists to remove from future considerations later.

Somehow I woke up this morning and immediately realized I should have submitted Back to the Future, glad it was submitted. Not sure if I’m voting for it yet however.

Can’t wait to see who sniped my original pick!

Oh, how did I not submit: Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World - Black Sheep [HD] - YouTube

Like the freaking embodiment of diegetic music, the music is fully integral to the entire movie! I think I need to rewatch it tonight.

Can I vote even without having submitted something? I have a strong favorite.

I hope that’s allowed because I voted in round 1 without having submitted anything.

I am surprised that Say Anything is missing from the list.
