Welcome to the Friday March 02 to Friday March 09 (publishing date) round of the One Week Notice challenge. My name is Peter, I'll be your host.

The core of One Week Notice is this: We all write parodies of the same original song - and then we post them on the same day! The song chosen ideally should be one that has not been already parodied on Amiright, and should also be of reasonable difficulty and length (Matthias is hosting a separate thread for general discussion about that part, see the messageboard and feel free to join in - or even better - sign up to host a round yourself!)

As things have evolved we're working on a From Friday To Friday basis. The host picks an original song and posts about it in a new messageboard thread on the first friday (or after the Thursday update on Amiright's front page if that's more convenient) and those who want to participate have one week to create a parody of it. All those parodies of the same song are then submitted to go on the next week's Friday's publishing date on Amiright (barring acts of God/Site Mods).

This challenge is not a contest judging for quality. No points are awarded. Constructive criticism is encouraged, but we have no strict rule or requirement for everyone to even read each parody and/or leave comments. Obviously that's an important part of the whole thing, but you won't get bashed if life gets in your way. The whole thing is done in the spirit of flexing our parody writing "muscles" and to grow back the spirit of camaraderie within the Amiright community. The host of a round must provide a link to the original song's lyrics (or post them in his/her host post, like I'm doing here below), a link to a YouTube video of the song (or an equivalent thereof) and information about what year the song was first released (to allow for the submission form on Amiright).

With all that said, here's the brand new One Week Notice for Friday March 02 to Friday March 09 (publishing date). A short one with just a few lines to substitute between a repetetive chorus.

Song Title: "Everywhere I go" - 1986
Artist - The Call
YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi-CfLsgLyk

Raise me up
Keep that promise that you made
Wake me up
Keep that promise that you made

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I go)

Straight has curve
Smiles, eyes, powers to confound me
I lose my nerve
Your voice, it echoes all around me

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you everywhere
(Everywhere I go)
I must have you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I, everywhere I go)

Ease me down
Keep that promise that you made to me
Take my hand
My mind reels, all my senses rise

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
Lord, I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I go)

Lord, I need you everywhere I go
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you everywhere
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I go)
I must have you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I, everywhere I)
(Everywhere I)
Everywhere I go, go

Oh my, is that repititious!  :o

Oh my, is that repititious!  :o


Think of "everywhere" as two words and some "every xxxx" solutions slash list parody options open up...

This song is actually pretty difficult because it's so damn repetitive!

Yes, like I pointed out to Agrimorfee I see this one mostly as a quick write list parody opportunity.

Looks like I’m in this week FYI
