Question

Maybe a bit easy, but I needed a distraction. :D

Never have I joined the masses

But I always seem to join the throng

Never have I flexed my muscles

But I’m always seen as great and strong

Never have I sung a tune

But without me there is no song

Never have I been mistaken

But when I’m right I’m in the wrong

I can make love seem common

I can bring new value to old

I can turn the rain to wheat

I can make a ripped rope hold

Not power either.

For the first stanza, each paired lines will all agree with the same answer, and all will agree with the last 4 lines.

In other words, the same answer will be applicable to each:

A

A

B

B

C

C

D

D

E

F

G

H

So if your answer doesn't fit one of the items, it's incorrect.

Without having read any of the posts...

the letter "G"

Beautiful. This has to be it.

I can make glove seem common

I can bring new value to gold

I can turn the grain to wheat

I can make a gripped rope hold

I was mulling over different letters, thinking that 'o' had a good chance.

The title of your spoiler is really funny, when you consider the answer to the riddle.

It's funny cos I was working on getting the g in too, and it was ringing loud in my head but could not see it... First is frst, second is nowhere! LIS/Phil O'Sophy

It is, indeed, the letter G.

(great one with "not hitting the spot") :D

Here's the skinny:

Never have I joined the masses

But I always seem to join the throng

(not in "masses" but in "throng")

Never have I flexed my muscles

But I’m always seen as great and strong

(not in "muscles", but in "strong")

Never have I sung a tune

But without me there is no song

(etc.)

Never have I been mistaken

But when I’m right I’m in the wrong

(etc.)

I can make love seem common

(makes love = glove)

I can bring new value to old

(makes old = gold)

I can turn the rain to wheat

(makes rain = grain)

I can make a ripped rope hold

(makes "ripped rope" a "gripped rope")

Glad you all had fun on that one.
