It’s another CONTEST!
But! You don’t win anything tangible! Just my undying love forever and ever.
You guys, SERIOUSLY. Please help me. I need you to inform me of every single song, phrase, quote or whatever that contains the word “world” in it. It’s for a super top secret project and I would be indebted to you forever.
FOREVER. We are the world, man.

April 9, 2008 at 8:46 amI think Eminem’s Lose Yourself has the word World in it. Also, a song by the Strokes, but I can’t think of the darn name!! (sorry that I am too lazy to actually do a net search to figure out if I’m right or not!!).
