Game 9

The Song for the End of the Evening

One Last Slow Song

The game's question

Tap the beat on the table together and let the missing word come on its own.

The evening is almost over. The band slows down, the lights go low, and nobody wants to leave just yet. In the fall of 1960, one song was made for that very moment. The Drifters took it to No. 1 on October 17, 1960. One word is missing. Fill it in together: “Save the Last _ _ _ _ _ for Me.”

To fill in: one word, five letters.

Need a hint?

Sway a little, as if the band were playing one last slow song. What do people do on the floor at that moment? That word fits.

See the answer

Answer: Dance—“Save the Last Dance for Me,” The Drifters, No. 1 in October 1960.

Why this game : The last song of an evening out is full of stories: the place, the music, and the friends who stayed until the lights came on.
