mc5 - Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game

Chalky, no. The animal connection is purely because it is written and performed by humans.
Toby, no and no

Does it date from before the last century?

What I mean is, there are 'original' recordings by the Beatles but not 'original' recordings of say Handel.

Is there an 'original ' recording?

Tuj, yes it does.
Inkspot, I do not think there is an original recording of this.

Is it from before the 19th century?

Raak, no. I believe it was written late 19th century.

Does it have a patriotic flavour?

Chalks, no.

Is it a hymn?

Inkspot, no.

Is it a song everybody knows?

Like Happy Birthday or Auld Lang Syne.

Is it written in, or usually sung in English?

"The Last Rose of Summer"?

Toby YES...it is the song..Happy Birthday to You..and with that..over to you

Ah, gosh. Gee. I'm overwhelmed.

OK, here we go. Common-or-garden ABSTRACT, she says.

Is it fictional?

Is Toby a woman too? Goodness, I'm getting confused now.

Would this be a purely human trait?

Me too, BM. I'm fairly sure that I was the one who treated nights as a lady in the MCiOS chat room - mind you, no-one bothered to disillusion me.

Is it capable of being experienced through one or more of the senses?

[Breadmaster] No. And yes. No confusion intended ;-)
[Dujon] No.
[Kim] No.

Is it a depiction of a person?
