The "Be Unique" archives!

[ "Be Unique!" Archives]

• • The "Be Unique" category for the week of February 3-7, 2003:

Name a Top 40, 1955-1985 charting song title containing a diminutive adjective, such as "little," "small," "short," etc.

Uniqueness is determined by song title. Of all unique submissions, the song with the highest chart position (closest to #1) receives the bonus point. If the tie is still not broken then the song that was on the Top 40 Billboard charts for the longest time will receive the bonus.

Three point responses: (No other player gave same answer)

Hmmm... "Pony"??? I asked Pikz, who submitted the following:
"according to my Webster's Third New International Dictionary (unabridged) on page 1764--3-pony-adj. 1: of a size smaller than usual.( Pony also appears in my Roget's Thesaurus as an adjective alongside such synonyms as miniature,mini and bantam.)"
And so, I accepted this answer. :)
