I'm thinking of a day between one and ten...

And now we begin the segment, "Restriction of the Day" (posted a little early since I want to get to bed early for once).

Today, we're starting easy: your entry must contain an even number. This restriction only applies for today--you can save odd number songs for later (if they adhere to the rule of the day, at least).

You are very right. I must have misread Katya's bibliography; I was sure that was not the one that had been used. How many times am I going to try to use a song that someone else has already done? Sheesh.

So about this: "Figure eight is double four. Figure four is half of eight. If you skate upon thin ice it would be wise if you thought twice before you made another single move."

1+1=11 Days
Today, the restriction is that the number must contain two or more words.
Examples: twenty-five, one hundred, a million and one, e to the i times pi, etc.
You may not just have two different numbers.
