Identify the song that contains the word. The song should be well known. If you get the current one right, you get to post the new one. so for example if I posted "Bismillah", you would know that it was Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen and be able to post a new one. Try to pick words that are at least uncommon.

In the interests of speeding it up, if you are certain that your answer is right then go ahead and post the next one without waiting for confirmation.

I thought it was about time we had this again.

To start it off: Crabalocker

Rules stolen from the previous incarnation of this game, written by Salty, I think.

I think it's in Who Let the Dogs Out? by Baha Men. Which is embarrassing to know.

Never mind, that was the singular.

I think it's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, but I'm not sure and it's really hard to think of a new puzzle.
If I'm right, anyone can take the thread.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road was the answer I was thinking of...

It IS hard thinking of a single unique word...

The word is Rawkus, not Ruckus. It refers to a hip hop record label. Should I just reveal it? The song is quite famous, but then again, hip hop have long lyrics, which might make it harder than other genres for this game.

Sounds like some sort of ballad...like mirror shards strewn about the floor...

Wild guesses: Stairway to Heaven, Bohemian Rhapsody (it's so long odds are any word is in it).

Neither. It's a quite straight-forward pop-rock song.
