Connect 4: The Musical Lit Game

A fun experiment: Can you match the song to the article?

This is dedicated to Michael Burg, MD who is always coming up with intriguing connections, pairings, and “experiments” that boggle me to the core of my brain.

Remember the game Connect 4? Yes, the one you slide round discs into, strategically attempting to get a line of 4-in-a-row before your opponent catches on?

This is a different take on that bit of merriment. Can you match up songs to writing pieces and Connect 4?

Which song below connects to which piece of writing?

James Arthur “Naked”

Joan Osborne’s “One of Us”

Katy Perry’s “Part of Me”

Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name”
