"What is it that can come and take
away all your stress,
tell me, (music), ___ ______
_______, ___ ____ _____ __ ______..."
"Don't Forget The Lyrics" is one
big karaoke exam. The host will hand you a million dollars and
say "no further questions, you have passed my test." Last
time, Dan McLaughlin laughed all the way to the bank for
$50,000. Let's see who else can bank in 1 million.
Lucas Kuzma is a farm boy from
Witchita, KS., who is ready to roll. We'll do the same with
these categories:
1960’S INSPIRATIONAL SONGS
EAT &
DRINK POP
IN THE
MOVIES R&B
PARTY
SONGS ROCK
STEVIE
WONDER
Alright, here we go, what's the
first category: 1960's. 2 songs. You know the drill.
- Raindrops keep falling on my
head-BJ Thomas
- Born to Be Wild-Steppenwolf
He gets Born to Be Wild. Let's
rock!
Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And....STOP! What else, Lucas?
Lucas' response: Explode into
space. He throws a bomb to lock it in for a hail mary......TOUCHDOWN!
The next category: Stevie Wonder. There are 2 songs by him:
- You are the sunshine of my
Life
- Isn't She Lovely
He gets the first one and we're
off and racing.
You are the sunshine of my life
Thats why Ill always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever youll stay in my heart
I feel like this...HOLD IT RIGHT THERE! Lucas?
Lucas' response: Is the beginning.
And it's not going to end quickly, because he locks it
in.....and he SCORES! The next one is: Inspirational songs.
He's got 2 songs to make it flow:
- Because you love me-Celine
Dion
- Ain't No Mountain High
Enough-Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell
He gets: Because you love me. Here
we go.
For all those times you stood by
me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love...STOP! Where, Lucas?
Lucas' response: I have for you.
But he throws in a backup of 2 words, and he has 2 left which
is 3 lines and calling out mom & dad. The 2nd word have is
what he wants, and all he has is: Found. and the last word is
correct, but he changes it to in, and locks it "in."
and.......it's in the net! Next one, please: R&B. The 2 songs
are:
- Midnight Train to
Georgia-Gladys Knight & The Pips
- Just Once-Quincy Jones
He gets Just once. We're underway.
I did my best
But I guess my best wasn't good enough
'Cause here we are back where we were before
Seems nothing ever changes
We're back to being strangers
Wondering if we oughta stay
Or head on out the door
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong...AND
STOP! What's next, Lucas?
Lucas' response: Why the good
times never last so....too many. He gets the 3 lines and they
are:
A. How come we never last for very
long
B. We never ever last for very
long
C. Why we never last for very long
He gets C....and that's correct!
The next one for $50,000 or $25,000 if wrong: Eat & Drink. The
2 songs are about the category referring to...well, eat &
drink. They are:
- Escape (The Pina Colada
Song)-Rupert Holmes
- One Bad Apple-The Osmonds
He gets Escape. Let's escape to
it!
If you like pina coladas, and
getting caught in the rain,
If you're not into
yoga, if you have half a brain,
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape,
I'm the lady you've looked for...FREEZE IT! What's next?
Lucas' response:
something something escape. Something isn't going to get you
cash. But I know something, he burns his last backup and calls
his dad with the answer: Come with me & escape. He locks it
in, but we dissect it to make sure. The last 3 words are
right, but are the first 2 right, also?.............NOPE! The
answer is: Write to. But $25,000 is nothing to write home
about for Lucas, but Joe Langer from NYC enters and signs in
to play the game. A tax attorney, he's hoping to follow in the
footsteps of "Millionaire's" John Carpenter, who works for the
IRS, because it's a tax company. Don't you get it? Anyways,
the categories are:
POP 1980’S
PARTY SONGS EASY LISTENING
ROCK THE DAY THE MUSIC
DIED
COUNTRY BREAK-UP SONGS
Let's get it rolling here and Easy
listening will be the first category. The 2 songs are:
He gets the Barry Manilow one and
we're off!
You know I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard....AND STOP! Where, Joe?
Joe's response: To do anything.
But it's nothing he can do but lock it in.....and he's right!
Next one: Break-up Songs. Here's what we got:
-
These Boots are made for walkin'-Nancy
Sinatra
-
If you Don't Know me by Now-Simply
Red
He gets the boots, and we're off!
You keep saying you've got
something for me
Something you call love, but confess
You've been messin' where you shouldn't have been a messin'
And now someone else is gettin' all your best.
These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll
do
One of these days these boots are gonna...STOP! What, Joe?
Joe's response: Walk All Over You.
He runs to lock it in, crosses the finish line.....CORRECT!
And the next one is: Rock. The 2 songs are:
He gets the Aerosmith song and
we're off!
I could stay awake just to hear
you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While youre far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Dont want to close my eyes
I dont want to fall asleep
Cause Id...HOLD IT! What, Joe?
Joe's response: Miss you baby. But
he wants to pinch hit by using the 2 words backup and gets the
first and last ones correct. And he locks it in......HOMERUN!
Now the next category: 1980's, and the 2 songs are:
His choice, We got the Beat. Let's
rock!
See the people walking down the
street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don't know where they wanna go
But they're walking in time
They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
They got the beat
See the kids just getting out
of school, They can't wait to....STOP! Joe?
Joe's response:Walk down to
the pool. Joe decides to catch a wave by using the 3
lines, and they are:
A. Hang around and act cool
B. Hang out and be Cool
C. Hang back & seem cool
He gets b, locks it
in..........Bang! That's right! The next one is: Pop. and
the 2 choices are:
- Don't You Want Me-Human
League
- Get Down On It-Kool & The
Gang
He wants to "Get Down on It."
So do we.
What you gonna do? You want to
get down?
Tell me
what you gonna do? Do you want to get down?
What you gonna do? You want to get down?
What you gonna do? You want to get down? - Tell me.
Get down on it
get down on it
Get down on it
get down on it
come on and
Get down on it
get down on it
Get down on it
get down on it.
How you gonna do it if you really don't want do dance?
FREEZE! Joe's got the answer and it is: By standing on the
wall. He locks it in and it's right! The next song from
another category he chose is Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison.
Let's rock!
Pretty woman, walking down the
street
Pretty woman, the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman
I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you
Mercy
Pretty woman, won't you pardon me
Pretty woman, I couldn't help see
Pretty woman...OKAY, STOP!
Joe's response: I don't know
if I should live or die, but I'd know I......way too many.
He burns the last backup and calls out a friend who
answers with: You're lonely, I guess it's true, that you
look as lovely as you. However, it was no love, but he
bails out for $50,000. Here's the answer: That you look
lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me
Wow, what a show! We'll
see you next time for the summer finale and until then,
it's not what you know about it, it's what you sing about
it.
