This section of your site is pretty moronic, especially criticisms like:

Elton John's, "Your Song"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
I don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where
We both could live

Its called ASSONANCE you idiots, and its a valid rhyme form. Its rhyming the vowel sound. In fact, as a professional (published and signed) lyricist I often try to rhyme vowels rather than the hokey full rhymes of moon june swoon spoon etc.

You guys would have had a lot of problem with Yeats rhyming "swan" with "stone" in his classic poetry.

This is barely worth replying to, but what the hell.

Wow, so you started an account just to complain about a misrhymed lyric? I'm impressed. Everyone else just sends spam through my section.  ::)

I'm well aware of the types of rhymes used in songwriting and poetry. Depending on the source you site, or how you were trained, you will find anywhere from 6 to 40+ different types of rhymes.

Just to clarify for those that may read this post, most every type of rhyme (or flat out misrhyme) that isn't a perfect/full/true rhyme, or a variation thereof (like rich (homonym), scarce, double/triple, identical rhymes, etc. ) is accepted to the misrhymed lyrics section, provided the form is filled out correctly.

Not really. It's a consonant head rhyme that also has the final consonant in common, but not a double consonant rhyme like "blackjack/joke", or a plain old consonant rhyme, like "cat/jet".
