Moniker that melody

[Jon]

From our good friend Summer comes a game where we rename REASONABLY popular songs to fool our friends then give them the number of words in the correct title.

We need not let a renamed title go beyond 72 hours or be obscure. This allows more participation. Doing so may result in being zapped by our Moderator! (I hear he has a big "Zapper.")


I'll start with this one...what song is this?



"Return to absorbing all light"

[Brice]

Back In Black?

[ZoNeSeeK]

ah, jon knows me so well :)

That looks good Brice, I think its pretty safe to continue with the feather.

[Jon]

Yes... move on if no response after 24 hours. Assume you are right (and you are Brice). The point of this game is a reasonably fast pace so many may participate.

[Mist_on_the_Water]

Indeed sai Walter! I know you well! I didn't realize it was you, cry pardon! I didn't know your name was Jon.

[Jon]

I am still uncertain what IR stands for and therefore am in the dark as to who you are.

[Mist_on_the_Water]

it stands for Insane Riddler, which went with my username, Riddlingxinsanity...and Blaine the Pain o'course.

My name is really Danielle, but I'd prefer to continue being known as IR

[Jon]

Ah yes... I remember you well as Riddling insanity!

Perhaps I am to old to recognize the song.

[Mist_on_the_Water]

No, it's a fairly old song. How long am I supposed to wait before sayng the answer?

[Telynn]

Is it *something* All Over? I have no idea what the song is, but if that is correct it might jog someone else.

[John Blaze]

maybe something like spiraled all over?

[Mist_on_the_Water]

spiraled = getting warmer

all over = neh..not really...lukewarm

[John Blaze]

rolled up everywhere?

[Mist_on_the_Water]

rolled = colder

everywhere= getting warmer!

[John Blaze]

[Jon]

"Let the wind out of my sails" means I lost all momentum." In this case that "evil" thing took away all of my ideas. Yes another hint would be nice.
