Ophelia_'s Sportsbook Songs Game

Ophelia_ wants your help in making a fun playlist of songs related to sportsbook that I can enjoy while wagering away my ECC life savings! The more eclectic that the suggestions for this list are, the better!

I will mark any post with a winner rating if you can introduce me to a song I don't already know. This will be a challenge for you because music is my greatest passion of all and I listen to absolutely everything...Die Antwoord, Mahler, Panic! at the Disco, 3BallMTY, Mozart, Propellerheads, Jack White, John Lee Hooker, Alt-J, Kongos, Krommer, The Police, Martin Garrix, etc...to name just a few. I may share some of this playlist on a Teamspeak channel one day while we wait for the scores.

My only rule is that the suggested song must somehow be at least indirectly related to Sportsbook betting. Appropriate lyrics for this topic might include scores, bets, sports, and games. You can be as ambiguous about this as you desire.

Song dedications are welcome and encouraged!

After a 2 week span of no song suggestions, the last person to post will win $10 K ECD. However, to make this a fun challenge for me too, if I am the last person to post, I keep my $10 K ECD!

Good luck! I can't wait to listen to your suggestions.

 

I will start off the posts. This is the song that gave me this idea.

"Songbird" by Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac



'the songbirds are singing like they know the score'

This song is a lot of fun to play on the piano and sing. I wasn't able to find too many links of recorded versions of either the original or covers for it that I actually like though.

 

LOL @Reincarnated_!

 

"I bet my life" by Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons



'I bet my life on you'

This song goes out to @Ladyvamptress and @Mission001.

 

Oh you score @Mission001! I had to mark this Winner even though I already know this one, because posting a Prince song never occurred to me and I do love his music! His music will live on forever.

 

"Jackpot" by Jocelyn Alice

'We be winning like the pot got hot,
We be winning like the cash gon' rain
We be winning, we gon' do it again'



I want to share this with all my fellow Sportsbook addicts. I know I have missed some people and have not met all of you yet, so if you feel this applies to you, consider yourself automatically added below!

I am dedicating this song to @OlympiansAreGods!

The line that applies is:
'We know the game and we're gonna play it'

Before you go here, does anyone recognize that lyric? You should. Don't say I didn't give you fair warning.

LOL yes, so true, Kenny Rogers it is. I always get confused because I learned it first from the Johnny Cash cover of it. Obviously an excellent choice for here!
