Farin Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 third year in a row I've been nominating that Concrete Blonde song... I think it's performing worse and worse the TT's not really my thing, but that's nothing new anyway - I guess The Beta Band would have been much more popular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Good month for my nominations. I nominated number 1 this week and a couple weeks ago when we did the country music special. I always knew it took an Italian guy from Jersey to pick the best country song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 #6 and it wasn't even my first choice for this week, either! Thanks to all who voted for it and my other nom.....I may nominate it again one week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted October 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Hmmmm. Looks like that's possible .... but nothing that can't be fixed. Hang tight.... .....So, BlueAngel's votes caused a flip flop in number's 3 & 4, and The Clash almost edged out The Hooters for number 10. But not quite.
