The Song Theme Game - Via Plug!
 
Here's a fun music challenge oriented towards sharing, and this is how to play:

  • The game starts with a theme, and everyone starts on the floor of Plug.
  • Players pick songs with titles that match the theme, and play up to 10 songs.
  • If you can't think of a song, stay on the floor until the round is over.
  • Whoever chooses the 10th song and completes the theme wins the round and selects the new theme.
  • If the theme can't be completed, then the person who chose it wins against the group and gets to select a new theme (but it's more fun if they're not impossible to complete, so they can only do this twice consecutively).
Theme: Car Parts
  1. Radiohead - Airbag
  2. Tori Amos - Big Wheel
  3. ...
  4. ...
  5. ...
  6. ...
  7. ...
  8. ...
  9. ...
  10. The Bravery - No Brakes
New Theme: Natural Disasters


... so on and so forth.


  • If a person's song doesn't fit the theme, Meh them off the stage.
  • To check the number of songs in the current theme, view the "Song History" button in Plug.
  • If the group decides to quit Plug in the middle of a theme, the next group can check the Plug History and either complete the last theme played, or start a new one.
I posted this in the Lounge because I thought it would benefit from the visibility, like the other plug thread. If this is an inappropriate spot, I think it would belong in General Music.


Here's the room! Once I'm joined by at least two players, I'll start us off on a theme!

Neapolitan and I came up with the most challenging theme yet a few nights ago. I played Blood Sweat & Tears "Spinning Wheel", Neo said "I'll see your "Spinning Wheel" and raise you a "Wheel In The Sky" by Journey. That gave me the idea for the theme: The song or artist you play has to contain a word from the song title, artist, or album title of the song before you. As an example, my next song was "Sky Pilot" by the Animals. And so on and so forth...

The reason it's so challenging is that you can't pick your song until the person before you plays their song. It was a hoot and a half...

I love this idea. Another brilliant game we can play!

I'm sitting in here alone and ready to play.

EDIT: I'll give it like 20 minutes and if nobody's interested I'm going to go read.
