The poll was pretty clear-cut: 13 yes votes and only 2 no votes. Song Sets it is!

A song set consists of icons with the lyrics of one song. Lyrics should be continuous within the song from one icon to the next.

We have a ton of good examples from last year's activity. Check them out here:

https://icontalking.dreamwidth.org/31977.html

Rules:

* Every icon should contain at least one word.
* If you can't make a part of the lyrics work:
** not all words have to be readable!
** you can leave out short connecting words (like "and", "that",...)
* You can choose any song, or more than one song if you make more than one set.
* If you want to leave out parts of the lyrics, just make separate sets.

* There is a minimum of 2 icons: the smallest set is a set of two.
* You can make as many icons (and as many sets) as you like.
* Please link the song lyrics, and/or put the parts you used of them in your comment with your icons

* Please submit your icons (and URLs!) to this post, all in one comment (if possible).
* Everyone can participate, you don't have to be a member of this community.
* I will collect all the icons from the comments and make a result post
* Everyone can leave comments on the inspiration and activity result posts
* There is no voting

OMG!The colouring in this is so nice,it reminds me of Cartoon 90s era cartoon network!XD I love the 2nd and 3rd icons a a lot!!

Oh my gosh...yes! These comics would totally make for a very interesting 90s era cartoon! :D Thank you so much, I am glad you liked the set! ♥

Thank you! ♥

Wow! The vibrant colors are amazing! They're all really cool! I love the expression in 4, and the composition in the first and last ones, they frame the set so nicely!

Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you liked the set! ♥

I agree with the 90s cartoon! It has a very 90s feel with the vibrant colors. I love the movement you've created with your composition and text.

Thank you for the kind words! I'm always hesitant with text, so I'm glad you liked its use in this set. ♥

Not what I originally planned on doing, but I couldn't find caps for the show I wanted to do and didn't have time to make my own caps. I really wanted to do something for this set, so when this randomly popped in my head I had to do it.

Song: Keep Your Hands to Yourself by The Georgia Satellites

Lines: "My honey, my baby, don't put my love upon no shelf/She said 'Don't hand me no lines and keep your hands to yourself'"

Nice coherent set! <3 I really like the font choice, too, and the way the blue reflections on their faces fits the font color (or vice versa :D).

Thanks!

This set is absolutely amazing! ♥

Thank you!

Woo! It took me way too long to come up with a song this time. (I had one in mind when I thought of making the challenge last month, but I have since forgotten. Oops.)

So I started too late, but it was so much fun again, I would actually have made the whole song if I had had more time. Such a good song for Guardian. :D (Queen, "Who Wants To Live Forever")
