That should be, i am sure, the best challenge ever. With the inimaginable number of songs they made, the originality will be the most important point to look. With that kind of challenge, we could see the most imaginative photographers and for the first time, not the most technical photographer.
I would like to see the image speak for itself...where the title or line shouldn't be necessary to identify only the gravy on top. Of course, the title or line must be included.

Fortunately, we've re-configured the voting page so the "gravy" is at the bottom, and you can try and figure out the title/line before you actually read it.
I'd really love this challenge, but I strongly feel it has more meaning if the title/lyric is a required part of the submission. I get pretty fustrated voting on various "tribute-type" challenges where the photographer doesn't give me a reference-point. I don't agree that "every imgae should be able to stand on its own"; I love the kind of synchronicity you get from well-expressed title/image combos, and think that this challenge is a natural for them.
Great idea for a challenge! I like the wording for the description as suggested by GeneralE.
Would it be appropriate to add an extra rule for this challenge that states: "The song title or lyric chosen must be used as the photo title." If this was included only as part of the description, not everyone would be obligated to comply. As an extra rule, it would be grounds for DQ if not met.
I agree that sometimes unless a reference point is given, a connection may not be as apparent to the voters as it is to the photographer.
