Re: Pictionary
 

If these are Roman numbers they make 910.
Is the color of importance?

Re: Pictionary
 

Celli, you got one step closer, but not there yet.
The colour isn't so important, but there is ice mentioned in the song, so I simply chose that colour.

Edit: Maybe further hints are needed? I didn't mean it to be hard, and celli got very close already.

Re: Pictionary
 

Well I certainly could use some help, I have absolutely no idea what songtitle has 910 for a clue. And now that you have mentioned the word ''ice'' I keep singing that song ''You're as cold as ice...you're willing to sacrifice our love'' by Foreigner, thank you very much :evil:

Browsing through Google you do get to know all sorts of stuff, like now f.e. I know where to go eat at my next trip to La Jolla, California.....at Restaurant NINE TEN :lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

Oh, but I'm totally inncoent :rolleyes: And now I got the same song stuck in my head... The number you mentioned might not be literally the one I am looking for, on the other hand it is...:biggrin:
Thinking how I can hint some more without giving it away totally, so added a few things:

CMVIII.....?..... CMX

Hopefully somebody is able to solve it, am going to bed soonish.

Re: Pictionary
 

Well THAT didn't help much....
CMVIII that's 908, so then should follow CMIX being 909... Hmmmmmmmm :thinking:
Gonna sleep on it :sleep: work tomorrow, maybe I get a revelation in my sleep.

Re: Pictionary
 

Its getting even more confusing to me:thinking:

Re: Pictionary
 

Exactly, so what would 910 be?

Oh, but you being the Scouser might know it! ;)

OK,

Re: Pictionary
 

Eeerm..... 910 = CMX, thought we'd already established that.
Make sense???? :no:
Sorry I can't follow and now have to be off to work, hopefully someone smarter than me comes along and solves it.
Good pictionary though..you have created a mystery with very little means :lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

Must be "One After 909" :lol:!

Re: Pictionary
 

There was more chance of celli getting it than me:lol: she's a Beatles fan:nod:

Re: Pictionary
 

You mean that that picture of the guy who wrote One After 909 on your profile page is there purely by accident ;)?????

Re: Pictionary
 

Its just because he's a scouser too:lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

Congrats and over to you!
I'm glad it's finally solved :arms:
Of course I could have made it a bit more obvious, for example like this:
CMIX I
but then it would have been done in a minute!

Re: Pictionary
 

Not by me it wouldn't:no:

Re: Pictionary
 

I didn't see it when it was posted yesterday, but it was easy enough after I saw celli's post referring to "Nine Ten" :lol:. Before that I didn't think of reading the numbers separately rather than "nine-hundred-and-ten"....

Now for the next one I tried to think of a more cryptic way of doing it ;), but I couldn't come up with anything, so it is simple enough. I want band and

song title

Re: Pictionary
 

Something tells me Paul McCartney ???? but still looking for the song title !!!!!!


mmmm:doubt: maybe not......

Re: Pictionary
 

Maybe if you look at it backwards :lol9:?

But no, Paul McCartney is not involved, other than that the Beatles have had a very strong influence on the band.

Re: Pictionary
 

In general when people say ''it's easy'' or ''it's simple'' I have a heck of a time finding the answer. Today is no different from that.
Easy....my foot. :biggrin:
What do we see here? A woman, young girl, knitting on a porch or balcony.
The colors in the background : orange, red, white, blue stand for the Dutch flag (I assume). I was thinking of a Dutch band, the Golden Earrings, but can't find anything that remotely links to a girl or woman on a porch or balcony.
There is a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke, Lady on a Balcony, but we're not looking for a poem are we :doubt:

Re: Pictionary
 

Have more faith in yourself :)! You have already identified, though not completely solved, two of the three clues.

The lyrics, like with every good song, are quite poetic, but not, I'm sorry to tell you, written by Rilke. However, if your association with the image is "Lady on a balcony" you're not that far off. Just have to see the broader picture, I guess....

Re: Pictionary
 

Looking at the broader picture he says......hmmmmmm :thinking:
I guess a lady on a balcony could be Juliet (from Romeo and Juliet), although I don't see Juliet knitting when Romeo is declaring his love to her :lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

Wouldn't be by a band called The Outsiders would it? I'm going through their lyrics and its taking forever......

Re: Pictionary
 

Hahaha! No, I meant broader in a literal sense ;)

You can save yourself that time and trouble :biggrin:. No lyrics in the clues (apart from the title which appears several times in the song text): the lady will give you the band and the rest of the image the song.

Re: Pictionary
 

In the Dutch Mountains by the Nits????
That could be it, first I thought náááh :no: but then I read it out loud and she ''knits'' sounds like ''Nits''.
Let's see what the Hel-man has to say about this.:whistling

Re: Pictionary
 

I think the Hel-man, he say Yes:nod:

Re: Pictionary
 

:lol:
The Hel-man has ''left the building'' I see, so we'll have to wait.
I'm going too, watching episode of Lost I taped last night, see you :wave:

Re: Pictionary
 

He say "sit back and enjoy" ;):
You're next :jossun:

Re: Pictionary
 

Brava celli:arms:

Re: Pictionary
 

Well done indeed Celli :) I never knew conciously at least that that song was by the Nits, the things one learns in Pictionary :lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

Thank you my dear fans :lol: and thank you Helanren, nice pictionary.
My next performance is also a song and well go ahead the band as well please:

Re: Pictionary
 

Was wondering if it could be Love isn't free by Dolly Parton? But probably not,the 99$ probably is there for a reason :thinking:

Re: Pictionary
 

Nope not Dolly Parton and yes that $99 is there for a reason, although it could have been $98 or $100 just as well.
And you have one word right.

Re: Pictionary
 

My first association was that is has to be s'thing like Love till ... the end, or whatever, but I cannot place the money yet

Re: Pictionary
 

:lol: no Helanren, times are bad but not thát bad. And it's not ''till'' that's in the title, although very nice find :bow:

Re: Pictionary
 

Could it be "Hearts For Sale -The Rolling Stones?", although I only see one heart:doubt:.... or "Love For Sale" there are loads who sang this from Bon Jovi to Simply Red

Re: Pictionary
 

Either "love" or "free" has to be in the title, so "Love for sale" seems a good guess. But as she wants the group as well and there is no band specifically associated with that song, I'll go the other way and say "Can't buy me love" by the Beatles.

Re: Pictionary
 

Yes, Love For Sale is a bit hit and miss as there are too many artists who recorded it:nod:

Re: Pictionary
 

You are both close with the meaning of the title, but neither gave the right answer.
What is it you do at this particular place in a store?

Re: Pictionary
 

WALTER EGAN - You Pay For Love ???:doubt:

Re: Pictionary
 

Véééry close, two words right, two important words.

Re: Pictionary
 

Are the dollars significant ? or could it have been any monetry unit ?

Re: Pictionary
 

Could be Euro's, Dollars, Yen, Seashells, anything :biggrin:
