urbanheron4 said:3b. The Beach Boys - Can't Be Sure

It’s pretty great when someone still takes a moment to remember The Beach Boys...😉

Topic - Here’s how we play: list two tracks under categories A and B. For track A, the title must be a single word—specifically an infinitive verb without the "to" prefix. For track B, use that exact same verb, but with a "-D" or "-ED" suffix attached. If a word can function as both a noun and a verb, that's perfectly fine; it doesn't matter how the song actually uses the word in its lyrics. Just follow the pattern.

01a Scritti Politti - Hypnotize

Topic: Let's play a little game of linguistic matching. We’re pairing things up in sets of two: category A and category B. For part A, the song title must be a single word—specifically an infinitive verb without the "to." For part B, we want that exact same verb, but transformed with a "-d" or "-ed" suffix. It's like a mirror image, just slightly shifted in time. Also, if a word can act as both a noun and a verb, that's perfectly fine; I don't care how it's functioning in the actual song title. Just follow the spelling rules.

01a Scritti Politti - Hypnotize
01b Simple Minds - Hypnotized
02a Jennifer Paige - Crush
02b Cocteau Twins - Crushed
03a David Sylvian & Robert Fripp - Damage
03b The Mission - Damaged
04a Dream Theater - Lie
04b Midge Ure - Lied
05a The Cult - Love
05b The Cranes - Loved
06a Adam Ant - Strip
06b Depeche Mode - Stripped

Crushed (1987)

Midge Ure - Lied (1988)

The Cult - Love (1985)

The Cranes - Loved (1994)

Adam Ant - Strip (1983)

Depeche Mode - Stripped (1986)

Topic - Here's the drill: we’re pairing two tracks together under labels A and B. For track A, I want a song titled with just one word—an infinitive verb without the "to." For track B, use that exact same verb, but swap it to its past tense form ending in -D or -ED. If a word can act as both a noun and a verb, go for it! Even if the song title uses it strictly as a noun, it still counts. It's like choosing a tool and then looking at the finished project; same root, different state.

01a Scritti Politti - Hypnotize
01b Simple Minds - Hypnotized

Scritti Politti - Hypnotize (1984)

Simple Minds - Hypnotized (1995)

The Smiths - Panic (1986)

Its Immaterial - Driving Away From Home (1986)

".....And forty five minutes to Chicago
And that's my birthplace, you know
Driving away from home
Thirty miles or more
And we'll go moving away from home
Without a care in the world
Driving away from home
Thirty miles or more
Yes, we'll go moving away from home
Without a care
Some of my friends live up North, too
If you like a longer trip
All you've got to do is put your foot hard down to the floor
And we can call on people I know in Seattle
Or maybe even Portland....."

"....But there's panic on the streets of Detroit
Atlanta, Chicago, New Jersey
I wonder to myself...."

I didn't quite expect us to end up with multiple tracks by the same artist, but hey, if that's how the cards fall, that's how they fall...

Subject - The lyrics mention at least three different cities (quoting the relevant part)

01 The Associates - White Car In Germany

The Associates - White Car In Germany (1981)

".....Boston's an old place
Chicago's a cold place
Cold as spies can be
Stutter through New York City
Walk on eggshells in Seattle...."

Topic: Let's play a round of A vs. B. Here’s the deal: both tracks need to have a single-word title. They must share that exact same name. To keep things interesting, the songs have to be official studio single releases, with at least a ten-year gap between them. Oh, and no covers allowed! Just pure, distinct originals. - Vol. 2
