OLD 55 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I haven't been around for a while. I just logged in now to check the Ten. It makes me very pleased that an Instrumental (basically - I know there's some dialogue) has made #1. Good nomination Laurie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberjudge Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Glad to see Bruno Mars squeak in at #10. Sorry to hear about his mom passing away (at only 55). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Yes, that's far too young. I included both #s 9 and 10 in my votes. Thanks to Jenny and Kenne for introducing me to those songs, although I think I've heard my grandaughter playing the 'Pink' song before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted June 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 although I think I've heard my grandaughter playing the 'Pink' song before. Quite possibly, it was #1 in Australia for several weeks earlier this year. I see all of your noms made it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Yes, thanks Kenne. I wasn't sure if any of them would. The votes were certainly spread. I quite like Pink. She's shown a great sense of humour in all the times I've seen her interviewed, and doesn't seem to take herself as seriously as some of those 'would be divas'. She's coming to Australia later this year, as you probably know. Maybe my grandaughter might take me to see her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
