*** That one slipped by me in the regular Top Tens.

We had Indian Reservation listed as by Mark Lindsay, who was of course the lead singer of Paul Revere & The Raiders.

We had a few double ups in the Nominations which can't be helped. I hope I've got the list right now and haven't missed any !

You'd wonder how these songs only polled 9 Points or less each.

Of course there's always a lot of tough competition.

And I was just thinking "at least nobody nominated that bloody James Blunt song".

I liked it the first few times I heard it, but it just became airplay oversatuated.

:laughing: :laughing:

What's 45 minutes amongst friends ? It's almost Saturday, so I think we'll start. CeeCee mightn't get back online for awhile, because there are tornados where she is. Our Best Wishes and Prayers go out to you Carole. Have a vote now if you can !

:P

Judo, I don't think you got to nominate at all ?

You, and any of our Regulars, are always welcome to vote if you miss nominating.

.................................................

And I don't really think the song is all that bad. It just seemed that whenever you turned on the radio or Music TV programs it was always there ! At least the kid wrote it himself; didn't rip off and 'sample' some old song, like the rappers do.

Erm...it's probably a bit late to mention this, but No-one Knows" by Queens Of The Stone Age has been missed off the list of nominated songs. I know it was nominated as I tried to nominate it myself, but was pipped to it(by c_s, as it happens) and had to change my nomination...

I've voted for it anyway, though I guess its chances of "charting" are small.

:crazy:

Sorry b-f. Farin wanted to vote for it too (as his #1), so I've added it to the list and adjusted his vote. If anyone else who's voted wants it included in their Ten, please let me know.

:)
