The Original Songfactors' Choice Top Ten Lists 1 to 9


Recommended Posts

HERE'S A SUGGESTION FROM BLUESBOY !!! Thanks Big John.

After Easter,

What do you think of 5 day cycles(like the 5th, 10th, 15th...) with 3 days of nominations and 2 days of voting or is the weekly cycle the way to go?

It sounds good to me ! We do have a bit of "dead" time there for a couple of days sometimes.

Yay or Nay ??? Have your say. Majority rules.

:)

My two songs are:

Shipbuilding - Elvis Costello

Powderfinger - Neil Young

Mellow's good Laurie, but I'll up the tempo a little. :)

Rikki Don't Lose That Number - Steely Dan

Time Is Tight - Booker T. & The MG's

Edna mentioned a couple too, but I'm not sure if they're final. She said she'd renominate.

Thanks CeeCee. I'll include those above. Nominations are still open, but if most agree with bluesboy's idea, we'll close them early enough to allow voting for the 15th !

Sorry if I misled people. I meant they're good enough to vote now, but I don't want to start without allowing time for all our regulars (AND any other Songactors who'd like to participate)to get their nominations in.

:P

BB I don't know "Are You Sure ?". You've got my #1 vote with Lonely Teardrops by the great Jackie Wilson though.

It looks like people like your "5 Day Cycle" so far. We'll just wait for more nominations now. Come on Katie and Kevin.

:) Thanks Katie and Kevin ! I might hand in my saddle Kevin.
