OLD 55 Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Thanks to all who've voted, and a big welcome to Crazy Don Great to have you with us, and I really like your CCR Theme. Pink, Lesley will be in there for sure on the points already received. I don't know what other new ones there'll be though. Depends on which ones receive support from remaining voters. And if we can bump some other songs out ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 You nominate it instead of 'You Better Move On' next week and I'll vote for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 It was pinkstones suggestion... and I absolutely love "You Better Move On"... but I better move on too and make up my mind, it will never make it... you still prefer "Hit The Road, Jack" o "My Baby´s Back"...
