cyberjudge Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hooray for Nat King Cole & "The Christmas Song". :happybanana: What a way to ring in 2009: his 2nd TT ("Unforgettable"), the second Christmas song in the TT ("Happy Xmas (War Is Over)"-John Lennon) and the oldest song in the TT, from 1946, besting Hank Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry".

edna Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) I will have to nominate Leonard Cohen over and over again till it makes it... Why do you people hate Leonard Cohen? Oh, nice Top by the way... oh, well, no, not really my cup of tea, to be honest... I just like "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and "Under My Thumb"...

LeeBB Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Edna, my PTT starts in a day or two, and Tower Of Song is there, as promised. Hope it helps. And Leonard was my number 11 this time around ;-) LBBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hope it helps. No. It´s a PTT, not a Top ten for the data base, but it will get my vote in any case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Hey katie. I like this Ten. Nice to see REO & Bryan Adams in there. I consider both to be sort of second rate (I prefer the 70's era REO, less cheese, more substance), but those are both incredibly classic songs that should be there. Commotion should have been there long ago ... and I'm happy that Glory Box made it, just for the sake of all of you that love it, and have consistently voted for it!! Oh, yay for Norah Jones! That one was a surprise. I'm seriously disappointed about "I'd Rather Go Blind" and the lack of love for Etta though. ** A quick note** I'm having computer issues. They seem to be at least temporarily under contol. If however you are hanging around waiting for the new ten to open tonight, and you don't see any signs of me being around, have patience. Laurie will be along to open things up if I can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
