I went and looked it up (thankfully, I did get it right, otherwise I'd be out of the game already!) and it's "Cry" by Faith Hill. Used to hear it on the radio all the time, but I didn't know the name (otherwise I've had said it; same with the other one I did).

Huh. I looked for it to make sure it hadn't been used, and yet missed ahem.'s post.

The wolf waits below, hungry and lonely/and cries to the moon, if only if only.

Tao, you win points mostly because that was referenced on Simpsons.

How have we gone this long without:

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie, and hurt you

I know it's early in the day (or late in the night, depending on how you look at it) but I didn't want to forget to post later.

i don't think i've ever gotten rick-rolled through text.

here's mine (i'll be playing this role in february!):

There's a cry
In the distance
It's a voice
That comes from deep within
There's a cry
Asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead
'Cause i know where i've been
-i know where i've been-"hairspray"

"have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue ___ moon?"
I don't think I've ever settled on what word fills that (thankfully eleventh-word) blank. Corn?

[Sleep] little darling, do not cry / And I will sing a lullaby.

The Beatles (can't remember the name of the song)

Sleep, pretty baby, do not cry / And I will sing a lullaby.

And I promise you that this is a different song than Katya's. It's from a tape of sugary lullabies we used to have and the melody is different.
