karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 My baby girl informed me today that she should have never turned me on to Songfacts because I beat her songs out for TT. Now, I am wondering what to do. 1. Wash her mouth with soap. 2. Don't participate for a couple of weeks so she can try to get hers in without my compitition. Or 3. Just let her take her chances like the rest of us.? BTW, I am only teasing her, not serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 GROUND HER!!! I would never advocate washing someone's mouth out with soap. Don't ask me why, but let's just say personal experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hmmm grounding her would be good but her hubby might get mad at me I have had my mouth washed a few times in my life. It isn't to bad depending on the brand of soap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) I like the idea of an "All New Songs" Ten, that would be fun. How would we find out if a song hasn't been nominated before? That can be a bit tricky. Edited March 14, 2009 by Guest damned punctuation errors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I am thinking that they are all in the Archives MC but I could be wrong 'cause I don't know everything. It would be logical to assume tho'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Oh, we're on to a 'no song that's ever been nominated' TT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 That would take quite some time to search through though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I think that they are planning it for a couple of weeks from now. Should be fun to see what everyone comes up with. Might be some real jewels in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Yes it would and I am sure that some will be overlooked and put up for nom. I know I won't see all that I am supposed too . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hmmm, I think that maybe we should prepare a list of all historical nominations so that we don't each have to put in so much work. I can probably extract every song from the Archive topic without too much effort... THen perhaps we/I could keep it as an on-going updated list. To prevent these little misunderstandings ;-) LBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I don't know that we'll do it, although Darryl suggested it, and it sounds fun. It's just a passing thought. Actually, it's a very simple thing to do. You just search the archives using the "find" function. I do it every week, as do a lot of other people. It really wouldn't be a difficult thing at all, and a search takes 2 minutes tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I said that a little 'tongue in cheek'. It would be difficult to police. The 'artists who haven't been nominated before' Top Ten sounds good though. Doing a search of the 'Archives' is pretty straight forward as Lucky said. I have Windows XP, so I click on: Edit Find on this page Type in song title and/or artist for each page of the Archives It takes me about 5 minutes per nomination, but I still don't know what all of the buttons on a calculator are for, let alone a computer.

karma Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 It seems quite simple to me. A simple click or two. Sometimes things sounds harder than they really are. And espacially for us "old" folks like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To prevent these little misunderstandings ;-) LBB Lee, thanks very much, but I don't think that List is really necessary. It would probably overcomplicate things. I've always been an advocate of 'KISS' - keep it simple, stupid (not you). It's good of you to offer though. I don't expect everybody to share my views on re-nominations. And if I haven't nominated a song for 2 years or whatever - well, I had my chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 It's outcomes like this that make me wonder what the **** I'm doing here. if it's any consolation - your nominations are great for my education Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Nice Top... I just saw "Blood&Roses" by The Smithereens has made it... I nominated it almost ten times... I always renominate songs... I will have to find some original one... I was planning to nominate "River Deep, Mountain High" next week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Next week is an OPEN week Elena. Go ahead - I'll vote for it again. YOU were the first to nominate 'River Deep, Mountain High' in TT#15 ! The same Ten you nominated 'Venus'/Shocking Blue which has since become a #1 - for someone else, I think ?

edna Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I don´t remember... I´m not the kind of person who gets #1s on anything... but if a song I love -wether I nominated it or not before- makes it, I´m glad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 The same Ten you nominated 'Venus'/Shocking Blue which has since become a #1 - for someone else, I think ? Venus was number 1 when I nominated it, I wasn't aware of it being a re-nomination, I don't pay that close of attention. I doubt I participated in the weeks it had been nominated though.

Lucky Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Like I said kiddos .... this next week will be a "normal" week. Then, lets say 2 weeks from now (Top Ten #159) we'll do a "No Artists That Have made The Ten" ten, ok? And let's continue to discuss the other ideas, it's always fun to add a twist, as long as it isn't too complicated, and brings new blood (artist or song) into the Ten. b-f, I'll echo Martin. I may not get to vote for your noms often because of the competition, but you sure have widened my knowledge, and opened my eyes, more than once. Isn't that the point? I think you for that, my dear Mr Fitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
