TheLizard Posted July 4, 2008 Report Posted July 4, 2008 I see that it's happened before, and I've never really thought about it, but how do we end up with an odd number of nominations?
The Seeker Posted July 4, 2008 Report Posted July 4, 2008 I was wondering the same thing just now, since I didn't do the nominations this week... but I checked the list Martin posted, and it's an odd number there too.
Farin Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Posted July 4, 2008 Only one nomination this week as I will be away for the voting period. But I couldn't pass this song up this week after seeing it again on a replay of the very first SNL episode (hosted by the late George Carlin): At Seventeen-Janis Ian (1975) please keep further discussions to the Top Ten thread thankyou
