    you mean all of the clues you gave make up the song title?headscratch.gif

    yep. "Excessively temperatured youngun' in a Metropolitan area" - rework the words and you'll have the song title. 1978. Was a #1.

    Oh come on now, break it down. I'll even try to help you out a little:

    Excessively temperatured
    Youngun' (sorry Kerry, I'm sure my apostrophe is wrong)
    in a Metropolitan area

    This is the song title.

    And that leads me to Hot Child in the City...so Nick Gilder? :D

    Beat by a hair, Kat. Oh well, here's a consolation clappy: clap.gif

    And the story behind it:
    I received some money for my 9th birthday and went out to buy my first ever record. Adoring my older sisters as I did (and still do), the record I bought was their favorite song at the time. I was hoping it would win me their favor.

    Don't worry, I'll try to keep thinking things up to see you all through the next month. Next trivia quiz will be on a famous photographer. (I hope you stocked up on the food.) :D

    You and your famous photographers have already kept me busy - following your "After Hurrell" shot, I became completely OBSESSED by the man, including doing a presentation on him for my lighting class (I wasn't an "official" student and simply sat in on the class as a member of staff from another department, but I figured I'd give the instructor a break and complete the presentationi assignment), and getting hold of a copy of this book

    :D

    Safe travels, Kerry - WE WANT PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thumb.gif

    It is an AWESOME book - you'll enjoy it!!! Some great images, along with reverse-engineered diagrams of how they were likely shot. Very cool stuff.

    New Here
    Hello Everyone!

    I am fairly new here, have never entered a challenge, but often thought of doing so. I think I will this time around, is that okay? I am actually working a spread, based on a song I LOVE!! And this would be a perfect chance to jump in a get a good education. Do the pictures have to be in color or b&W or will anything go as long as it represents a song title?

    Are there any other rules a newbie should know?

    Thanks!!
    Stephanie

    Welcome Stephanie!!!
    Sounds like a great one to start with if you are already thinking in that direction. Song Title is indeed what you need to show. If you read through this thread (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=129426), it should give you all the info you need. If a challenge theme doesn't specifically tell you it needs to be black and white or color, then it is entirely up to you. If there is anything you aren't sure about feel free to ask. Everyone on here is great about helping out and giving advice.
