Sing The Years
Duration 12/1/2025- 2/28/2026

Level 1 5-12
Level 2 13 or more
Do one task for each song.

TASKS

1. 19 Something Mark Wills
"19 Somethin'" was released in September 2002. The song begins with singer's reminiscence of his formative years, the 1970s and 1980s. As the song was still at number one the week of the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster occurred, some radio stations momentarily stopped playing the single as the song contained the line "A space shuttle fell out of the sky," a reference to the similar Challenger disaster that occurred in 1986. Despite this however, the song would remain at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks.
🎤 Read a book about space or published in September of any year or that is 19th in a series.

2. Summer of 69 Bryan Adams
There are two meanings to this song. On the surface, "Summer of '69" is a classic rock anthem about reminiscing on a simpler time of youth, love, and music. This is the most straightforward reading of the lyrics. The sexual interpretation. During a 2008 interview, Adams confirmed that "69" was a reference to the sexual position and not the year.
🎤 Read a book where a couple has sex or tagged classic or a book about Bryan Adams.

3. Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five Paul McCartney
"Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" is the final track on Paul McCartney and Wings' highly acclaimed 1973 album, Band on the Run. While the song's title references a specific year, it was released 12 years prior, offering a futuristic, epic closing to the record.
🎤 Read a book about Paul McCartney or with wings on the cover or published in 1985.

4. 1999 Prince
"1999" by Prince: An upbeat, synth-heavy funk-pop anthem about partying like there's no tomorrow, famously released before the turn of the millennium. After watching a documentary on Nostradamus that predicted a "terror" in 1999, Prince's bandmates were filled with dread. Instead of despair, Prince found the situation ironic. He wrote the track as an optimistic party anthem, providing an escape from the widespread fear of nuclear conflict.
🎤 Read a book about Prince or published in 1999 or a book about a conflict.

5. 1984 David Bowie
"1984" is a song by the English musician David Bowie, from his 1974 album Diamond Dogs, released as a single in the United States and Japan. Written in 1973, it was inspired by George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and, like much of its parent album, originally intended for a stage musical based on the novel, which was never produced because permission was refused by Orwell's widow Sonia.
🎤 Read a book with a character who is a widow or with a dog on the cover or read a book about David Bowie.

6. Disco 2000 Pulp
One of the band’s most famous songs off their seminal 1995 album, Disco 2000 is a Britpop classic which sees singer Jarvis Cocker lament over his childhood sweetheart and imagines where and who she is now.
🎤 Read a song where a character thinks of an old sweetheart or published in 2000 or set in England.

7. Louisiana 1927
"Louisiana 1927" is a 1974 song written and recorded by Randy Newman on the album Good Old Boys. Sung from the perspective of a nameless resident of the area recounting the flooding of St. Bernard and Plaquemines parishes during the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 which left 700,000 people homeless in Louisiana and Mississippi.
🎤 Read a book set in Louisiana or where a character is homeless or where the authors initials can be found in GREAT FLOOD.

8. December 1963 (Oh What A Night) The Four Seasons
According to the co-writer and longtime group member Bob Gaudio, the song's lyrics were originally set in 1933 with the title "December 5th, 1933", celebrating the repeal of Prohibition in the United States. While the band felt that the instrumental groove would be a hit, they disliked the lyrics, and so Judy Parker wrote a new set of lyrics. By Gaudio's account, the song was a recollection of his and Parker's first meeting.
🎤 Read a book with the word night in the text (Give a partial sentence and page/loc #) or with a character called Judy, Parker or Bob or a book published in December.

9. 1979 Smashing Pumpkins
Billy Corgan said the Smashing Pumpkins' song "1979" stemmed from a specific moment of reflection on a cold, dreary Chicago day, where he was at a stoplight and felt the transition between youth and adulthood was imminent. The song captured the feeling of an "idealized vision of youth" and the wistful sensation of being on the precipice of adulthood, a mood he tried to convey to friends and through the accompanying music video.
🎤 Read a book with a pumpkin on the cover or tagged coming of age or set in Illinois.

10. 1812 Overture Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky
1812 Overture is a concert overture in E♭ major written in 1880 by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The piece commemorates Russia's successful defence against the French invasion of the nation in 1812.
🎤 Read a book set in Russia or with one of the numbers in the page count 1, 8, or 2 or with a character who is French.

11. 1982 Randy Travis
"1982" was recorded by country music singer Randy Travis. The song's narrator recalls a time when his former lover was all his back in the year 1982. According to American Country Countdown the original title of this song was "1962." However, Travis said that he didn't feel comfortable singing about a love that he lost when he was only a little over two years old. He and producer Kyle Lehning revised the lyric to refer to 1982, as they felt it was more believable because it would have only been three years before the time of the recording.
🎤 Read a book with a character called Randy, Travis or Kyle or read a book published in 1982 or where a character loses a love.

12. 1994 Jason Aldean
"1994" is a song recorded by American country music artist Jason Aldean. The song, a tribute to Joe Diffie, refers to many of his songs: Upon being sent a copy of the song by Billboard, Diffie said, "What else can you say but what an honor it is to have the larger part of a song reference songs of mine. To think all of Jason's fans will be chanting my name... pretty dang cool."
🎤Read a book with a character called Jason or Joe or published in 1994 or where someone pays tribute to another.

13. 1985 SR-71
"1985" is a song that was written and recorded by American pop-punk band SR-71 for their album Here We Go Again. The song is about a middle-aged woman who is longing for her past and dwelling on her current mundane lifestyle while reflecting on how things have changed since the 1980s, specifically in music and pop culture.
🎤Read a book with a main character who is middle-aged or written by a woman or published in 1980.

14. In The Year 2525 Zager And Evans
"In the Year 2525 (Exordium & Terminus)" is a 1969 hit song by the American pop-rock duo of Zager and Evans. "In the Year 2525" is a song about the journey of mankind over a 10,000-year span. It predicts that man's thoughts, relationships and body will be negatively impacted by technological advances and ends with man's extinction.
🎤 Read a book written by a man or where the main character is in a relationship or where the first letter of each title word can be found in ZAGER AND EVANS. (Three word minimum)

15. Summer 68 Pink Floyd
Summer of 68" primarily refers to the Pink Floyd song and the tumultuous events of the actual calendar year 1968, which was characterized by significant global protests and social change.

TASKS

1. 19 Something Mark Wills
"19 Somethin'" was released in September 2002. The song begins with singer's reminiscence of his formative years, the 1970s and 1980s. As the song was still at number one the week of the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster occurred, some radio stations momentarily stopped playing the single as the song contained the line "A space shuttle fell out of the sky," a reference to the similar Challenger disaster that occurred in 1986. Despite this however, the song would remain at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks.

2. Summer of 69 Bryan Adams
There are two meanings to this song. On the surface, "Summer of '69" is a classic rock anthem about reminiscing on a simpler time of youth, love, and music. This is the most straightforward reading of the lyrics. The sexual interpretation. During a 2008 interview, Adams confirmed that "69" was a reference to the sexual position and not the year.
🎤 Read a book where a couple has sex or tagged classic or a book about Bryan Adams.

3. Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five Paul McCartney
"Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" is the final track on Paul McCartney and Wings' highly acclaimed 1973 album, Band on the Run. While the song's title references a specific year, it was released 12 years prior, offering a futuristic, epic closing to the record.
🎤 Read a book about Paul McCartney or with wings on the cover or published in 1985.


4. 1999 Prince
"1999" by Prince: An upbeat, synth-heavy funk-pop anthem about partying like there's no tomorrow, famously released before the turn of the millennium. After watching a documentary on Nostradamus that predicted a "terror" in 1999, Prince's bandmates were filled with dread. Instead of despair, Prince found the situation ironic. He wrote the track as an optimistic party anthem, providing an escape from the widespread fear of nuclear conflict.
🎤 Read a book about Prince or published in 1999 or a book about a conflict.

5. 1984 David Bowie
"1984" is a song by the English musician David Bowie, from his 1974 album Diamond Dogs, released as a single in the United States and Japan. Written in 1973, it was inspired by George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and, like much of its parent album, originally intended for a stage musical based on the novel, which was never produced because permission was refused by Orwell's widow Sonia.

7. Louisiana 1927
"Louisiana 1927" is a 1974 song written and recorded by Randy Newman on the album Good Old Boys. Sung from the perspective of a nameless resident of the area recounting the flooding of St. Bernard and Plaquemines parishes during the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 which left 700,000 people homeless in Louisiana and Mississippi.
🎤 Read a book set in Louisiana or where a character is homeless or where the authors initials can be found in GREAT FLOOD.

8. December 1963 (Oh What A Night) The Four Seasons
According to the co-writer and longtime group member Bob Gaudio, the song's lyrics were originally set in 1933 with the title "December 5th, 1933", celebrating the repeal of Prohibition in the United States. While the band felt that the instrumental groove would be a hit, they disliked the lyrics, and so Judy Parker wrote a new set of lyrics. By Gaudio's account, the song was a recollection of his and Parker's first meeting.

9. 1979 Smashing Pumpkins
Billy Corgan said the Smashing Pumpkins' song "1979" stemmed from a specific moment of reflection on a cold, dreary Chicago day, where he was at a stoplight and felt the transition between youth and adulthood was imminent. The song captured the feeling of an "idealized vision of youth" and the wistful sensation of being on the precipice of adulthood, a mood he tried to convey to friends and through the accompanying music video.

However, Travis said that he didn't feel comfortable singing about a love that he lost when he was only a little over two years old. He and producer Kyle Lehning revised the lyric to refer to 1982, as they felt it was more believable because it would have only been three years before the time of the recording.

But the instructions state one task per song.
There are ten songs?

This makes level 2 impossible - unless I am misunderstanding (which is very possible).

Are we miss..."

I messed up and not all the post got posted. Should be fine now. Thanks for pointing it out.

Just a quick comment/question - I noticed for the last song "15. Summer 68 Pink Floyd" the description refers to Bryan Adams' which is song #2. The tasks are different, so it doesn't really matter but just wondered what that song is, I'd never heard of it.

1. 19 Something Mark Wills
"19 Somethin'" was released in September 2002. The song begins with singer's reminiscence of his formative years, the 1970s and 1980s. As the song was still at number one the week of the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster occurred, some radio stations momentarily stopped playing the single as the song contained the line "A space shuttle fell out of the sky," a reference to the similar Challenger disaster that occurred in 1986. Despite this however, the song would remain at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks.
🎤 Read a book published in September of any year - 2010
A Journey To The New World, Kathryn Lasky | 12/1
or that is 19th in a series.

2. Summer of 69 Bryan Adams
There are two meanings to this song. On the surface, "Summer of '69" is a classic rock anthem about reminiscing on a simpler time of youth, love, and music. This is the most straightforward reading of the lyrics. The sexual interpretation. During a 2008 interview, Adams confirmed that "69" was a reference to the sexual position and not the year.
🎤 Read a book where a couple has sex
Dream Man, Linda Howard | 12/4
Thirst Trap, Chelle Sloan | 12/9

3. Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five Paul McCartney
"Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" is the final track on Paul McCartney and Wings' highly acclaimed 1973 album, Band on the Run. While the song's title references a specific year, it was released 12 years prior, offering a futuristic, epic closing to the record.
🎤 Read a book about Paul McCartney or with wings on the cover
Isaac's Song, Daniel Black | 12/21
or published in 1985.

4. 1999 Prince
"1999" by Prince: An upbeat, synth-heavy funk-pop anthem about partying like there's no tomorrow, famously released before the turn of the millennium. After watching a documentary on Nostradamus that predicted a "terror" in 1999, Prince's bandmates were filled with dread. Instead of despair, Prince found the situation ironic. He wrote the track as an optimistic party anthem, providing an escape from the widespread fear of nuclear conflict.
🎤 Read a book about Prince or published in 1999 or a book about a conflict
Lover Forbidden, J.R. Ward | 12/11

5. 1984 David Bowie
"1984" is a song by the English musician David Bowie, from his 1974 album Diamond Dogs, released as a single in the United States and Japan. Written in 1973, it was inspired by George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and, like much of its parent album, originally intended for a stage musical based on the novel, which was never produced because permission was refused by Orwell's widow Sonia.

"Louisiana 1927" is a 1974 song written and recorded by Randy Newman on the album Good Old Boys. Sung from the perspective of a nameless resident of the area recounting the flooding of St. Bernard and Plaquemines parishes during the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 which left 700,000 people homeless in Louisiana and Mississippi.
🎤 Read a book set in Louisiana or where a character is homeless or where the authors initials can be found in GREAT FLOOD
A Fresh Start, Trisha Grace | 12/18

8. December 1963 (Oh What A Night) The Four Seasons
According to the co-writer and longtime group member Bob Gaudio, the song's lyrics were originally set in 1933 with the title "December 5th, 1933", celebrating the repeal of Prohibition in the United States. While the band felt that the instrumental groove would be a hit, they disliked the lyrics, and so Judy Parker wrote a new set of lyrics. By Gaudio's account, the song was a recollection of his and Parker's first meeting.
🎤 Read a book with the word night in the text - p3, "Oh, but what a fun night."
The Invitation, Jodi Ellen Malpas | 12/2
or with a character called Judy, Parker or Bob or a book published in December.

9. 1979 Smashing Pumpkins
Billy Corgan said the Smashing Pumpkins' song "1979" stemmed from a specific moment of reflection on a cold, dreary Chicago day, where he was at a stoplight and felt the transition between youth and adulthood was imminent. The song captured the feeling of an "idealized vision of youth" and the wistful sensation of being on the precipice of adulthood, a mood he tried to convey to friends and through the accompanying music video.
