OLD 55 Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Thanks Farin. Gee that's an interesting list. Look at #s 11 to 20; they could have been a great Top Ten. I think a lot of good songs missed out, but I suppose that happens every time. Thanks to c s and Dappled for some excellent comments and facts too. Fancy two re-nominations coming in at #2 and #3 !

edna Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I love almost every song that has made this Top... though as my nominations never make it, I might think that I´m this. But no, I don´t . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 You're certainly not, edna. Anyway, great list as always! And of course I'm extremely happy to see Friday On My Mind at number five. It's one of my very favourite songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm glad that putting Daydream Believer & Over the Hills & Far Away at the top of my list, helped them to just crack the top 10. It shows that every input counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 At the bottom of the heap... Round and Round - Ratt (1984) 2 I am so disappointed in you people. Cheesy 80s hair metal not at the top of your lists? I'm never speaking to any of you ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Berry Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 No you're definitely not a loser. You just won the Musical wheel of fortune game! That is an apalling video that you linked to Edna. The tune wasn't all that tuneful, John couldn't reach some of the bassier notes and the arrangements were pedestrian at best. The crowd shots were good though.

Farin Posted July 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm glad that putting Daydream Believer & Over the Hills & Far Away at the top of my list, helped them to just crack the top 10. It shows that every input counts. definitly! and it even makes a difference, whether you put a song on #4 or #6... (just look at the results to know what 2 points can accomplish) and edna: we all know you're far from a loser... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtstuff Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Thanks OLD 55 and Edna for the birthday wishes. Just like the Tennessee Erine Ford song says, "Another day older and deeper in debt. Saint Peter don't call me because I can't go I owe my soul to the company store." rtstuff A "young" 57 year old, or at least I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'll vote for Twisted Sister Here's Dee Man. Peaches, you shouldn't be disappointed at an 80s song missing out. There's an age Time Warp somewhere in our voting lineup - either too old or too young. Except for Boy Bands and Techno, I liked the 80s. (Sorry, I don't think Ratt had a following here in Oz though).

OLD 55 Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 No you're definitely not a loser. That is an apalling video that you linked to Edna. The tune wasn't all that tuneful, John couldn't reach some of the bassier notes and the arrangements were pedestrian at best. Definitely NOT, dear edna. Rich, who would ever know if The Beatles were in tune or not at one of their concerts (unless it was videotaped, like this one). You could never hear them for the screaming. We hope to see you back with a couple of nominations when Top Ten #24 opens in a day and a half or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtstuff Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 God Bless all of you. I checked out the announcement section and really want to thank everyone for being so nice. The world could use more song factors for sure. rtstuff "We Are Marshall" appearing in theaters everywhere in late October. I hear there are some outstanding performances that will be seen on the silver screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
