Yet Another Musical Lyrics Game

Photo Bonus Question - Which Disney musical film is this photo from?
Sorry it took so long to get this week's game up, it was a long weekend for me. 
The game this week is yet another Musical Lyrics Game. Haven't done one of these is a little while but the first two were a success. This time there are at least two songs that I did not cut out any of the words, mostly because the songs and musicals are a little more obscure, but tell me the title of the song anyway.


To Play: Read the lyrics below and try to guess the song title and which musical each selection comes from. Leave your guesses in a comment and I'll reply with your score. Guess as many times as you wish. Answers will be posted next Saturday.

Scoring: One point will be awarded for each correctly guessed song title and musical title. Also two bonus points will be awarded for correctly guessing the musical for the Photo Bonus Question above. Highest possible score is 32 points. 


Musical Lyrics

#1
This is livin', this is style, this is elegance by the mile
Oh the ____ ____  traveling life, the traveling life for me
First cabin and captain's table regal company
Whenever I'm bored I travel abroad but ever so properly
Port out, starboard home, posh with a capital P-O-S-H, ____ 


#2
Wonder of wonders, _______ __ ________ - 
God took the tailor by the hand
Turned him around and- _______ __ ________ - Led him to the promised land!

When David slew Goliath (yes!), that was a _______ .
When God gave us manna in the wilderness, that was a _______  too.
But of all God's _______ s large and small,
The most miraculous one of all 
Is the one I thought could never be: 
God has given you to me.


#3
We've just been introduced, 
I do not know you well, 
But when the music started 
Something drew me to your side. 

So many men and girls, 
Are in each others arms.
It made me think we might be 
Similarly occupied. 

_____ __ _____? 
On a bright cloud of music shall we fly? 
_____ __ _____? 
Shall we then say "Goodnight and mean "Goodbye"? 
Or perchance, 
When the last little star has left the sky, 
Shall we still be together 
With are arms around each other 
And shall you be my new romance? 
On the clear understanding 
That this kind of thing can happen, 
_____ __ _____? 
_____ __ _____? 
_____ __ _____? 


#4
Aow, so loverly sittin' abso-bloomin'-lutely still. 
I would never budge 'till spring 
Crept over me windowsill. 
Someone's 'ead restin' on my knee, 
Warm an' tender as 'e can be. 'ho takes good care of me, 
Aow, _______ __ __ _______? 
Loverly, loverly, loverly, loverly 


#5. 
Passing bells and sculpted angels, cold and monumental
Seem for you the wrong companions, you were warm and gentle

Too many years
Fighting back tears
Why can't the curse just die!

_______ ___ ____ _______ ____ _____
Knowing we must say goodbye

Try to forgive
Teach me to live
Give me the strength to try!

No more memories
No more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years

Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye!


#6
I am _______ _____ __ ________, I know that I'm naive 
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet, and willingly I believe
I am _______ _____ __ ________, innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies, what do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I, to face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I, of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser, telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen, I'll depend on you 


#7
_____ ____ _________ ____
Wherever you may be.
We ain't met yet
But I'm a willin' to bet
You're the gal for me.

_____ ____ _________ ____
You're just as good as lost.
I don't know your name
But I'm a-stakin' my claim
Lest your eyes is crossed.

Oh, I'd swap my gun 'n' I'd swap my mule
Tho' whoever took it would be one big fool.
Or pay your way thru cookin' school.
If 'n you would say I do.

#8
In the rain,
The pavement shines like silver.
All the lights
Are misty in the river.
In the darkness,
The trees are full of starlight,
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever.


#9
I've just met a girl named _____,   
And suddenly that name 
Will never be the same 
To me. 
_____! 
I've just kissed a girl named _____, 
And suddenly I've found 
How wonderful a sound 
Can be! 
_____! 
Say it loud and there's music playing, 
Say it soft and it's almost like praying. 


#10
Are we dancing? 
Are we really here?
Is this feeling something real or will it disappear?

Are we dancing?
Does the music soar?
Was this lovely song I hear ever heard before?

Are your eyes confessing things
I alone can see
Or is my imagination
Flying away with me?

Are we dancing?
Say we really are
Then I'll know that I
Reached into the sky
I reached into the sky
And touched a star


#11
His royal highness Christopher Rupert Vwindemier Vlandamier 
Carl Alexander Francois Reginald Lancelot Herman
HERMAN?
Herman.. Gregory James is giving a ball.
___ ______ __ ______ _ ____, ___ ______ __ ______ _ ____! 

Our daughter's looking dreamy-eyed
___ ______ __ ______ _ ____.
They say he wants to find a bride, he may find one at the ball!
If only he'd propose to me.
I pray that he'll propose to me.
Why shouldn't he propose to me?
I'll wear a gown of satin jade.
And me I'm in a pink brocade.
And me I'm in the second grade.
___ ______ __ ______ _ ____. ___ ______ __ ______ _ ____.


#12
Each time I see a girl of five or six or seven
I can't resist the joyous urge to smile and say thank heaven for little girls
For little girls get bigger everyday!
_____ ______ ___ ______ _____
They grow up in the most delightful way
Those little eyes so helpless and appealing
One day will flash and send you crashing to the ceiling
_____ ______ ___ ______ _____
Thank heaven for them all no matter where no matter who
Without them, what would little boys do?
Thank heaven,
Thank heaven,
_____ ______ ___ ______ _____! 


#13
___ ____ when my love comes along  
I won't take a change. 
___ ____ he'll be just what I need 
Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance. 

And you'll know at a glance by the two-pair of pants. 

___ ____ by the calm steady voice 
Those feet on the ground. 
___ ____ as I run to his arms 
That at last I've come home safe and sound. 
Until then, I shall wait. 
Until then, I'll be strong. 
Oh, ___ ____, when my love comes along. 


#14.
All around the cathedral the saints and apostles
Look down as she sells her wares
Although you can't see it, 
You know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares

Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"____ ___ _____, tuppence a bag  
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"


#15
But when I try in here to tell you, dear
I love you madly, madly, Madam Librarian...Marian
It's a long lost cause I can never win
For the civilized world accepts as unforgivable sin
Any talking out loud with any librarian
Such as Marian.....Madam Librarian.


Have Fun!

  24. I left my guesses in a comment already, but I think something closed it before it actually "sent."

    Okay, no clue on the photograph, but I can't wait to see the answer!

    #1. POSH, sung by Grandpa Potts in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

    #2. Miracles of Miracles sung by the tailor (David?) in Fiddler on the Roof.

    #3. Shall We Dance, sung by Anna Leonowens in The King and I.

    #4. Woodn't it be Luverly, sung by Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.

    #5. Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again, I believe sung by Christine Daae in Phantom of the Opera. (I haven't actually seen this one yet, but I have listened to some of the music.)

    #6. Sixteen Going On Seventeen, sung by Liesl in The Sound of Music.

    #7. Bless Yore Beautiful Hide, sung by Adam Pontipee in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. (One of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!)

    #8. On My Own, sung by Eponine (Lea Salonga!!!!!!) in Les Miserables.

    #9. Maria, sung by Tony (?) in Westside Story. (I actually haven't seen this one either. I've heard maybe three songs from it.)

    #10. Are We Dancing, or The Waltz, sung by Angier Duke in The Happiest Millionaire. (I don't actually like this song much, so I haven't heard it all the way through! :P )

    #11. The Prince is Giving a Ball, sung by Lionel in the 1997 rendition of Cinderella. (I JUST watched this!)

    #14. Feed the Birds, sung by Mary Poppins(Julie Andrews)in Mary Poppins.

    That's all I know. From what I know of the storyline, I would guess that #15. is possibly from the Music Man, but I haven't seen or heard anything from it so I can't be sure.

    Thanks for the game!

    P.S. I LOVE your blog!
