The challenge is to take a photo that fits appropriately as the title of a song or find a song to match a photo you have taken. Pick a song, any song you like (providing it hasn't been used before). Find the song on youtube and paste the link to the song with your photo so that we can all have a listen.
I gather we were running a modified rule to cut down on the number of previous songs. I've decided to revert back to run the full list of songs like it was in the good all days! If the next hosts wants to change it back so be it :) If you don't like it well that's tough!

If I've missed any songs let me know and I will amend. Looking forward to your photo entries!
So glad you reverted back to the old rule!! It's not that hard to find songs not used.
My trick is google the subject
For example, if I take a photo of windows, I google 'window songs' and a zillion titles come up. Easy-peasey!!
And I get to learn new songs at the same time.
@farmreporter yes think it will be a while before we run out of songs! i just thought it was getting too complicated running two lists and i also preferred the old rule!
@farmreporter@rjb71 hah! Interesting! Usually I start with the song in my head rather than starting with the picture 🙃... anyway - I’m fine with the rules regardless (and my current entry of Country Road is very definitely meant to be the John Denver song... I’d never heard of the James Taylor song until I looked it up just now!
uuummm... it is not clear to me what the rule is: to pick a song from the above list? or to pick any song which is not in that list? I am a bit at a loss... sorry.
