Hi all, I just received an email from Moe - our winner of the first Carpenters Clue game. He has sent me his song choice and clues. So I will keep the game going for Moe - as he's not sure he can make it to the forum everyday. So here goes: Clue #1 This song originated from a movie.

Rick can you please go over the rules of this new game for those of us who are mentally challenged; Certainly, here's the game guidelines: 1. This is a five day game, where you give a clue a day as to what your song is. By day five you will have given five clues. 2. On day one give a clue that's vague - you don't want to give to good a clue at the begininng. 3. As each day progresses give one clue about your song. 4. Each person gets only two guesses. 5. The correct answer will not be given until one day after the fifth clue is given (even if someone has guessed the correct song). 6. On day six when the answer is given the person who guessed the correct song first wins and will start the next game by giving a clue for the song they are thinking of. 7. But here's the clincher. Everybody gets two guesses, if you guessed the correct song on your first guess, but on the second guess you gave a wrong answer than that forfeits your correct answer. 8. If it does happen to where you and another person gave the correct answer first, but the wrong answer second - and nobody else has given the right answer, then a tie breaker will be held. 9. Have lots of fun.

@@ Before I reveal Moe's third clue here is a recap of the first two clues. Clue #1 This song originated from a movie. Clue #2: The song doesn't mention "love" in the lyrics or title. And now on with the game: Clue #3 This song is a standard, introduced by another classic vocalist decades earlier.

Little Girl Blue was the first one that popped into my head, but since that was from the musical Jumbo (I think), Im going with As Time Goes By instead (listening to Rosemary Clooney`s version right now) as it was from the Movie "Casablanca".
Play it again Sam, play As Time Goes By......

The only one I can think of is I got Rythm even though it is in a medley.

That was going to be my second guess Roland but you beat me to it and considering the time of year and the fact it is a full song as opposed to a medley you are very likely to have the correct answer so prepare your clues (if you are right that is).

Here's a recap of the first four clues. Clue #1 This song originated from a movie. Clue #2: The song doesn't mention "love" in the lyrics or title. And now on with the game: Clue #3 This song is a standard, introduced by another classic vocalist decades earlier. Clue #4 The original artist who introduced this song is an actress/singer who has won an Academy Award and Grammy and her biggest claim to fame is starring in a classic 1939 film. Her daughter is also an academy and grammy award winning actress/singer. And now for the last clue: Clue #5 The Carpenters recording of this standard was arranged by the famed veteran arranger/composer Billy May. I will give you the answer tomorrow.
