OLD 55 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Thanks Lea and Phil. I've just added the votes to date. Now I'm not trying to sway anyone's voting, but there's 3 New songs with a realistic chance of making it at this stage.... Rhythm Of The Rain - Cascades, 14 points (could be our first re-entry) Dream Lover - Bobby Darin, 10 points Tom Dooley - Kingston Trio, 8 points I'm Ready - Fats Domino, 6 points 7 others with 5 points each, and 13 others each on 4 points or less.

MuzikTyme Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Hi, ODN. I'm on the back-burner but that doesn't mean I'm not paying attention. Hopefully, you'll allow me to say that you've made a perfect thread and, coincidentally, it's my favourite, too! Be well, ~Marcus~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
