Good nomination Tim Lizard. :thumbsup: Buddy Holly was an amazing singer and songwriter and Oh,Boy!'s a worthy #1.

Onya edna. :thumbsup: Your perserverance with 'Lady d'Arbanville' paid off at last.

Ditto with Jenny. :thumbsup: She first nominated that beautiful song 'Eternal Flame' back in TT#43.

That's OK....I don't take offense at someone not liking what I nominate. I'm more surprised when I get a song in the TT :)

I really don't care for the Tears for Fears version of "Mad World", I prefer Gary Jules' cover, even though I know that a few SFers loathe that version.

To each his own!

Always good to see Tears For Fears in the ten :D

I had to vote them number one. I don't think I actually had a choice, I just had to haha. I love both that version and Gary Jules version. But then again, I love absolutely anything Tears For Fears does. And I also happen to LOVE "Eternal Flame". Though I guess I wasn't around when it was on the radio, perhaps it was overplayed. One of the advantages I have as a youngin, I don't have to hear older songs get overplayed :D

My noms had too much good competition this week. Though I was surprised to see The White Stripes do better than Bloodrock.

Great ten though!

Hi Kenne. :)

Yes, the Top 2 chosen by my friends in my PTT were 'Hey Tonight' and '(They Long To Be) Close To You'. I nominated them in TT161 and they went #1 and #2 in that also.

That was back in April 2009 and I left the TT a couple of months after. I'm sure some of the other songs have subsequently made it when nominated by others.

I'll have a look through my List ( Link , in case anyone's interested) and maybe nominate some from it in the next few weeks' TTs. Of course that doesn't mean that I'm 'reserving' them if someone else plans to nominate any.
