    Its perfect for this challenge, and that's a great start. I watched that video and realized that about 1/3 of the words I thought they were singing were something else entirely.

    Same here, I think he is more concerned with the sound of what he sings than the pronunciation / understanding of the words.

    Thanks Baron, that is what I strive for in most of my maps.

    This wasn't what I was expecting from you!
    It's so clean and simple!
    I love it!

    True of so many songs. And add to that the singer's accent / dialect...

    I had a college roommate who was convinced that the words in "Bad Moon Rising" by CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival)
    were "there's a bathroom on the right" instead of "there's a bad moon on the rise".

    Thanks bkh1914! I do sometimes get a little to intricate with my maps, but I wanted to keep this one simple and just represent the one lyric, "We come from the land of Ice and Snow"

    And yes, there are so many misunderstood lyrics in famous songs.
    “Hold me closer, Tony Danza”. Correct lyric: “Hold me closer, tiny dancer”

    Led Zep is always a good choice and the map is great
