*Googles darts lingo*

Yay, Saulaac :clap:

Nice bit of horseracing jargon there too. Ooh, my right flank! :laughing:

^^Haha, I was thinking more of a quick dash with the cavalry, but yes the horseracing works too. I hear the going was good to "firm" :laughing:

^ With good grass coverage, lol.

Sorry I didn't realize you were calling in the cavalry. :laughing:

Well I tried my best to mount but unfortunately I just couldn't get my leg over. (guffaw)

^ Surprising, as you are from Mount-auban :)

On this night things are extremely well defined as we repose together in this place
I would like to have a long conversation with you.
I have no wish to depart from you, it would not be my intention you should be deprived of my company.
There are occasions when my memory fails me and I utter words which later I might wish I had not
It gives me pain inside to observe tears in your eyes
I have no wish to depart from you, I feel I would be helpless solo in the world.

Bolded = "Tonight it's very clear as we're both lying here"
"Sometimes I just forget and say things I might regret"

Peter Cetera - "Glory of Love"

Oh Peter, why did you sell out after Chicago?

TH did an absolutely amazing job with these so far. I doff my hat to you! :)

While I'm not savvy enough to come up with my own, I do find this little meme from 2019 apropos -

Smash Mouth's "All Star" lyrics, translated to from English to Aramaic and back again by Isaac Mayer:

There was one who said unto me that the universe was going to cause me to tremble,
That I am not the sharpest cutting implement in the storehouse.
She had the appearance unto me as a stupid one,
With her finger and her thumb
In the frame of a Greek gamma upon her forehead.

Behold, the years begin coming, and do not cease from coming.
Fed unto the axioms, and I fell upon the earth and ran.
It was not acceptable if not to live for the sake of pleasurable things.
Your brain increases its wisdom, but your heart increases its stupidity.
A great amount to do, a great amount to see,
Therefore, there is no difficult problem if we take the streets of the backside.
You will not know if you do not go.
You will not shine if you do not glow.

Behold currently! You are entirely a star child! Begin your power! Go! Laugh!
Behold currently! You are a master of the music! Begin your singing! Acquire your wages!
All that sparkles is gold!
Comets alone shatter the frame!

Okay, there's still one left in round 11. Do yiz want to keep trying or do I reveal the answer so we can move on to round 12?

There are some class lyrics in there, ISB. Very Trollheart-esque.

For the first time it looks like we have been well and truly snookered by Song 4: My darling, I find it hard to comprehend how it is we are unable to remain joined
And this occasion may, I fear, be the final one, if I do not clarify how much I require your company.

Unless ribbons is still working on song 4, then I'd say TH, please reveal! :shycouch:

Shortest lyrics we've had so far, just two lines - and I'm completely stumped!

I surrender. :o:

Okay. It was "Broken Wings" by Mr. Mister.

First one you couldn't get; you should be really proud.

I'll post the next round tomorrow.
