Welcome to Season 444!

Those who remember Season 333 may already guess, what this season is about. ;)


This week, let's celebrate things that come in fours (and maybe even some things that come on all fours. ;)

The themes are:
1) Play any song from a band or group with 4 members.
2) Play any song with 4 or "something meaning 4" in their title or lyrics (four seasons, rectangle, quartetto...)
3) Play any song that contains at least one 4-finger chord.

As always, original songs and instrumentals are most welcome.

Song limit: 1 song per day or 8 songs (4 + 4) per Season.

- Season starts Sunday, August 16th at 00:01 Hawaii time, and ends Sunday, August 23rd at 12 PM.
- Please mention in the video that it's for Season 444

Prize: Something rectangular - a pre-owned cigarbox sopranino by Luke Futcher. (The Finnish Post has been working pretty well this summer, so I'm hopeful that the winner will get the prize.)

I'll put my comments on your YouTube videos and don't duplicate them here.

Please remember that the fabulous Hiccups Season 443 has still a day to go!

Cool idea Ylle! Thanks for hosting ~
 
I just googled groups with 4 members. The Jackson Five was listed. Now I'm not very good at math, but......
 
Well, let's see. I'm not capable of playing the Dixie Dregs' "Day 444" or PFM's "Four Holes in the Ground". I guess I can come up with something.

During the open mic, someone suggested Suzi Quattro songs should also be eligible for this week.
 
May the fours be with us this week!
 
May the fours be with us this week!

Oooh now I'm gonna have to see how many members the Cantina Band had.

Although it was in Episode 4...
 
One of my favourite movies popped up on free to air last weekend . The 1951 film " Ace in the Hole" sometimes released as " The Big Carnival". About an unscrupulous reporter who manipulates and prolongs the rescue of man trapped in a cave...because he getting a great story out of it. Kirk Douglas is his finest role. It is referenced here in a fashion. A bit of four stuff included.Tuning is CGcg.
Cheers Ylle! Thanks for the fawesome theme.

Two highways crossing
Four ways to go
East for the Wolf Men
West flies the Crow
Be careful of the road you’re on
The mine is deep and the pull is strong

Mercy limps Northwards
One leg dragging stiff
Strawman is Southbound
In search of a riff
That he can play inside the Lion’s Den
He knows he needs it
Just don’t know when

St Peter is hung
Upside down on a cross
Chuck Tatum is bleeding
The Ace in the hole
That he lost
Leo still trapped in the cave
Don’t worry Leo, it’s you we will save
Just give us a couple more days
I got a byline and you’re the story
They crave

The Big Carnival plays out
The Big Wheel spins round
Sometimes Im feeling
We’re all underground
Waiting for the drill to
Break through
Redemption for me
Salvation for You
 
Another Fab Four one for you Ylle, a McCartney (mostly) song off With The Beatles and a personal favourite of mine. The eagle eyed among you will notice I’ve finally got round to decorating the hallway :rolleyes:
 
I've been largely absent for several weeks now and I've really missed the Seasons. Hopefully I'll be back to contributing on a regular basis again from now on...

Anyway, here's a Four Tops song!

 
Thanks for hosting Ylle. Strange lyrics on this one but I like the tune.
