TheLizard Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yay, I got the number two song AND the very lowest song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viaene Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 not even a 90s song but yeah, a nom of mine made it so I'm happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel2Velvet Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 "I Started A Joke" finally made it after a time or two of being nominated and narrowly missing. 'Bout time. Have to rank it in that grouping of 100 finest ballads ever written. Certainly this top ten shows our diversity. To have Wings in with the Sex Pistols is rather indicative of a wide variety of musical tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Just change Ol Bob to Peter,Paul and Mary and it is a great Top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) I find the Stones just making #11 interesting. I would have thought that a fairly popular song, given the other competition. Goes to show the biggies aren't always so big. A very nice ten, by the way. Nothing to get terribly excited about, but as Steel says, very diverse. I like that, and I at the very least like all the songs there. Oh, I'm glad 5 o'clock world made it Me too! I always liked that song, but I loved it when it became the Drew Carey Opening Theme! Edited March 22, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I truly like this Top Ten. I think there's something on this one for everyone to like. Which is rather embarrassing, since I didn't even nominate this time. (mayhaps that's why I'm unbiased) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 B-F might like this one a bit more than the others... except for the songs being too low Nah, I think it's great that The Pistols made it in at all- regardless of the the fact that I had nothing to do with it being nominated- but I'm even more chuffed to bits about "And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda" making the Ten. I only get songs in the Ten very rarely, so I am glad it was a song that genuinely deserves the exposure. I certainly wasn't expecting such a great result.

Steel2Velvet Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 It's a great song with lots of imagery, regardless of (or in spite of) the video accompaniment, B-F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberjudge Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Please correct in the new list of All Songs to reach the Songfacts Top 10: Sloop John B was mistakenly added under the Bee Gees, rather than under the Beach Boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted March 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Me too. It's one of my favorite (if not The favorite) Beach Boys tunes. I can't believe it wasn't already there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I really think that so many great songs are now being recognized, since a lot of the "big" songs are now out of the mix. The lists are diverse, and full of great songs. Look at the top 5, all classics on list #107! The Songfactors' Choice Top Ten #107 for the week ending 23rd March 2008 1. A Hazy Shade Of Winter - Simon & Garfunkel (1966) 2. Blowin' In The Wind - Bob Dylan (1963) 3. Guitar Man, The - Bread (1972) 4. I Started A Joke - Bee Gees (1968) 5. Sloop John B - The Beach Boys (1966) 6. Cover Me - Bruce Springsteen (1984) 7. Five O'Clock World - The Vogues (1965) 8. God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols (1977) 9. Junior's Farm - Paul McCartney & Wings (1974) 10. And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda - The Pogues (1985) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
