New Game!
The new album may not be my favourite, but it has reignited my interest in the board. Time for a simple Elvis game.
Post a word to be found in an EC song and the others have to identify a song it is found in. The person who answers has to post another word and so on. Obviously you don't use words like 'the' or 'and'. If nobody gets it within a day, the question poser gives the answer and posts another worrd. No cheating. I shall start the proverbial ballrolling:
Insolent

Re: New Game!
Does it have to be the exact word or can it be a variant? For example I know "insolence" appears in "Beyond Belief."
