Didn't we just have Pink Floyd challenge which is just a restricted version of this challenge? I think the challenge barrel must be getting low again.

I can see a lot of "shoe-horning" for this challenge.

Also, I think I know of a couple of photogs that will use the "My Humps" title. :-D

...and wouldn't you know it, there's a "Photograph" title. This is where the shoe-horning comes in. This will be like a mini "Free Study" challenge.

Those are some seriously awful titles.

Not my kind of challenge - and as already mentioned by Falc we had another music/song challenge just a week ago.

Think I'll try to go for "B&W Portrait" this week (and I'll probably get hammered as I've never really done portraits before).

Who's Rick Dee? Never heard of him ;)

going for the portrait challenge.

That's one of the worst list of songs I've ever seen.
01/03/2007 06:36:23 AM · #8
Just as restricting since you have to use that list - which is a horrendous list to begin with. Wasn't this literally just suggested? And yet another open challenge to operate under advanced rules. This keeps up there is no reason to pay to get the advanced rules. And didn't we just have Pink Floyd?

Just looked at the list and about the ONLY thing I have heard is James
Blunt's You're Beautiful. Geez, now I am feeling old and out of the loop. I think I'll just sit on the fence and procrastinate with my Black & White thoughts:-):-)

I don't see why y'all are bitching. You're being handed a fun, open-ended challenge, but are whining because its bad pop music. Who cares? Just look at these titles:

Let's see...

Photograph - Can I get an 'easy button?' EASY BUTTON!
Girl Next Door - You know it!
London Bridge - The DPC Brits have got this one in the bag.
You’re Beautiful - Nudes. I need nudes. We need nudes. Heck, Woody needs nudes.
Ridin’ - Go for an Easy Rider style shot!
What’s Left Of Me - I see a grungy attempt at JoeyLawrenceography
Dance, Dance - Dancing... um yeah
Over My Head - Planes! Elevated subways/freeways! Birds!
Temperature - ...rising! Fire or sweaty nudes... oh yeah
Sexyback - So much you could do with this one.
S.O.S - Ships. But I'm keeping this one for myself.

Fine. Do it your way. Go compete against 350 people in "Portrait." I'll be having some fun, creatively adapting a song title to a great photo.

I'm with Rex - Did you read the description?

I'll join you in being "out of the loop" as far as the song content goes, but LOOK at those titles! I can't wait to see what gets entered for this one. I'm sure there are many DPC'rs out there staying real quiet and putting together some visual masterpieces to this. :D

ya, i like this challenge, it gives lots of room for creativity. I already have 5 possible entries.. (in my head lol) i like this better than some challenges (ie/ 12 days of christmas).
01/03/2007 05:01:45 PM · #13
I'm actually excited for this one! I'm only worried about one song title... So Sick. I swear, if anyone enters someone throwing up, I will have a panic attack beyond belief. I'm kinda scared to enter for that reason alone! :(

You're one up on me. I've never heard of any of them.
01/03/2007 10:44:24 PM · #15
After reading that list I feel very, very prude...and very, very old.
01/03/2007 11:02:28 PM · #16
HAH!!! I feel young!!! I have Sean Paul and Fall Out Boy on disc and know more )and have heard) than half of those on the list. Lots of possibilities!

No they don't. In 1962 London Bridge (of "falling down" fame) was deemed obsolete and sold to an American real estate developer, who reconstructed it in the desert at what is now Lake Havasu City, Arizona. What most people think of as "London Bridge" is actually "Tower bridge", and any image of it in this challenge gets a "1" from me as DNMC ;-)

For those of you complaining that you haven't heard of any of these songs, that isn't really relevant. Just pick a title that you can come up with a picture for. The challenge says that it needs to match the title not the whole song.
01/04/2007 12:41:14 AM · #19
Here's hoping for about 20 good renditions of "My Humps" ;-)

Well, *somebody* had to post it, LOL.
01/04/2007 12:41:58 AM · #20
this challenge (top 50 songs) should provide plenty of variety and chance for creativity. after scoring the entire fence challenge, i think that this is a good thing.
01/04/2007 12:44:54 AM · #21
I'm bringin "sexy back"
01/04/2007 12:49:28 AM · #22
i'm all for a song title challenge but terribly displeased that we're stuck with such crappy songs. i honestly don't see much to be creative with and it's such a short list, there will be a lot of repetition. sadly, i think it will be a fairly boring challenge.
01/04/2007 02:03:39 AM · #23
Hmm...

"(When You Gonna)Give It Up To Me"

I'd like to see someones rendition of this, ha.

Hmm...you could enter a nude under about half of these song titles.
