Well that's an interesting choice enigma. Mott the Hoople brings to mind their 1974 single "The Golden Age Of Rock And Roll". for some reason this title makes me think of "Yesterday Once More".
p.s. enigma you'll have to let us know why you chose Mott as you next word choice...
NEXT WORD:
Celebration

"For All We Know" where she sings "strangers, in many way"...
I'll keep with Cam's thinking and choose the next word that has to be in a song....the word is: SOUND

"Sounds more bluer than blue" from "Your Baby Doesn't Love You Anymore." Then again, the distinctive "Carpenters Sound" that RC himself even talked about time and time again. and we all love the way the Carps sound!

"Save my pennies for a rainy day" from "A Place To Hideaway" NEXT WORD IS: REPLY This can be a lyric in a song or any topic that the word REPLY pertains to Carpenters - just getting the game back the way it started.

Nice new ssmilies Rick. When I think of the word reply two things come to mind the song No Reply by the Beatles who of course were major influences on the Carpenters and also an article where Karen said that she would try to personally reply to as many letter that fans sent her as she could. To be one of the lucky few Karen had time to reply to must have been so great! My word is Quadrophonic. Rick in answer to your question a few words ago regarding the mott question. When I chose Mott as in Mott The Hoople it was pertaining to comments Karen made on their 1976 UK tour that cause a media upraor and a war between Mott The Hoople fans and Carpenters fans some of you including yourself may be familiar with this already. Its a fairly long story that is interesting and can be a whole topic in itself but that incident and its results made me think of a connection between the two artists and chose the word Mott. BTW in the end Karen did apologise for the comment and the whole thing blew over. !@

&* What a fun and interesting game. The word quadrophonic makes me think of Horizon. I have a quadrophonic issue of the Horizon album. I used to have Now And Then on quad also but gave it to a close friend years ago. Now I regret that.

I have to admit; I am having a lot of fun with this game also. Good job Rick!!
Anyway, "pillow". When I think of pillow I think of puffy, then I think of clouds....therefore...."Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes" from On Top of The World.
Next word: BEER

Beaner you sure come up with some interesting words. Anyway beer brings to mind something I read (I believe in the Ray Coleman book) about some fans who got into a rehearsal before a concert and were offended when they saw that some of the band members were drinking beer. NEXT WORD: MINUTE

Post by enigma on Oct 7, 2004 12:04:20 GMT -5
When I think of the word minute I think of the word time. Then I think of the early days of the Carpenters and how they did not have a minute to enjoy their sucess, recharge their batteries or get away from the grueling road life and the toll this took on both Richard and Karen. I also think of Karen and the short time she spent on this earth and how she made the best of every minute of her short life even if she was unaware that her stay on this earth would be a short one.
My word is Alley

The song I was thinking of was "Still Crazy after all these years" because of when she sings "drink ourselves some beers".

Just an UPDATE on the game rules. 1. Name a word and someone can answer what the word means to them pertaining to anything related to the Carpenters - whether it be a song lyric or trivia about Carpenters 2. The first person to answer to the word chooses the next word. 3. If you wish your word's answer to be a lyric from a song then state the fact that you want it to be a song lyric answer. Other than that answers will be anything pertaining to Carpenters 4. If the person who gives an answer forgets to list the NEXT WORD. Then the first person to noitce this can list the NEXT WORD. note: all answers are how the person answering percieves this word - there are no right or wrong answers. As it stands the current word is a word from Enigma: ALLEY

The word "alley" makes me think of bowling alley and the word bowl.....thus, Hollywood Bowl where they won as the Richard Carpenter Trio wasn't it?
