(Read only, anymore; sorry.)
Short version of rules
Without using a search engine to find one, write down at least eight words of a song containing the word (or the topic, if it's a general topic).
If it's the newest word, play once, and wait for another player to play before you go again.
On older words, you can play over and over without waiting!

He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said
I come from a land down under
Men at Work
this land is your land,
this land is my land,
from California to the New York Island
This Land ~ Woody Guthrie
and the ones that run this land help the poor and common man, this is our country.

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road ~ Elton John
There's a land that is fairer than day
And by faith we can see it afar
"In the Sweet By and By"
in hymnals, sung in the south, where "see it afar" can be made to rhyme with "dwelling place there."
Some people don't know the original, but know the "Pie in the Sky" Wobblys parody, (The Wobblies isn't an Australian children's band, but sounds like it nowadays).
Me and you and a dog named Boo
Travellin' and livin' off the land
Some hippy fantasy by a guy who called himself Lobo, who didn't seem to know that "livin' off the land" required NOT travelling, but no matter. Fine stoner fantasy.
This land is mine,
G_d gave this land to me
"Exodus," a song from a movie or musical from the olden times (late 50's, early 60's...)
I'm going to camp out on the land
going to try to get my soul free

Happy landings to you

Farewell, First Lady of the air
When Israel was in Egypt's land
let my people go
Opressed so hard they could not stand
let my people go
"Go Down Moses," traditional
So ferry cross the Mersey
'Cause this land's the place I love
And here I'll stay
Gerry and the Pacemakers
I am woman, watch me grow, see me standing toe to toe as I spread my loving arms across the land.

Puff the magic dragon
lived by the sea
and frolicked in the autumn mist
in a land called Honalee...
---Peter, Paul, & Mary
Though your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to Chicago
Just to sing
In a land that's known as freedom
How can such a thing be fair?
Won't you please come to Chicago
For the help that we can bring
Chicago
Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the blue ridge mountains...
I have no idea who sings this, but it's the first thing that popped into my head.
Woody Guthrie, Meghan. Its already been played.
Sometimes there are too many plays to read though, but you can search the page to see whether something has been played or not.
Sail on, sail on,
to another land beneath another sky.
Never Die Young - James Taylor
How blessed the forest with bird song
How neat the cut peat laid so long
Felt like a seed on your land
Donovan
