I must be going insane... either that or Darryl changed/edited his nomination. I could swear he said "I'm sorry, but it's been months since I nominated a Beatles song." Anyway, I was just driving along wondering how I managed to leave that song out of my 10. Now I know.

Darryl is obviously trying to mess with my head. Like Alan Arkin in "Wait Until Dark". Which of course makes me Audrey Hepburn ;-)

I posted I was planning to nominate "Baby´s In Black"... maybe that´s what you mean?

The point is that nominating such songs is not such fun... I positively know it will make the Top.

But hey, anyways, I will... ;)

And if you nominate "You´re gonna..." of course, it will get my vote... :)

Lee, I did have it, but I found that someone had nominated it before. :)

I'll only renominate my own original nominations, not other peoples'.

If 'You're Going To Lose That Girl' is renominated by someone else in a future Top Ten I'll certainly vote for it. It's always been one of my favorites off 'Help'.

I was intending to nominate 'She's Leaving Home'. It's been on my Lista for a long time, but I was reluctant to nominate it because Mike started a Thread about the story behind the song, and I didn't want people to think I stole it from there.

Of course, if Elena nominates 'Baby's In Black' next week I'll hold it over.

Also, there's some stigma associated with nominating Beatles' songs - but what the heck - I haven't nominated one for 9 months.

Darryl, I think I nominated 'You're Gonna Lose.." but to my surprise it didn't make it. :( I've been dying to nominate 'Anytime At All' for a year or so... Love it!

A great song, sure, but definitely my favourite film clip in Help! A very classic forward-looking clip, inspiration for many over the years.

Thanks heaps,

Audrey.

Hey Aud, we're honored to have you join us in our little game ... now, have you completely lost your mind, or will you be ok given a little time? :P:D
