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

A few nominators still to vote !

RonJon is away, but he told us that his Nominations would receive his #1 and #2 Votes. Farin and I discussed this and I put a Post on this Thread about it. As nobody's objected, we've decided to count 10 and 9 Points for his nominations, and will do the same for anyone else should the circumstance arrive, as long as the intention is clearly indicated.

Sound fair ?

[Shawna]

as long as the intention is clearly indicated.

I'd like to clearly indicate my intention: and that is that all my votes here shall count for eleventy hundred points each. Objections? Onward.

1. Shameless ~ Garth Brooks "I'm shameless, honey I don't have a prayer, every time I see you standing there I fall down upon my knees..."

2. Say You Love Me ~ Fleetwood Mac "Have mercy, baby, on a poor girl like me..."

3. Rose Garden ~ Lynn Anderson "You'd better look before you leap, still waters run deep..."

4. Give Peace A Chance ~ John Lennon "All we are saying..."

5. Hot Fun In The Summertime ~ Sly and the Family Stone "That's when I had most of my fun..."

6. Rich Girl ~ Hall and Oates "You can rely on the old man's money..."

7. Sundown ~ Gordon Lightfoot "Sundown, you'd better take care..."

8. Dirty Work ~ Steely Dan "I don't want to do your dirty work no more..."

9. I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You ~ Alan Parsons Project "If I had time to, I wouldn't want to talk to you..."

10. Calling All Angels ~ Train "In a world where what we want is only what we want until it's ours..."

[OLD 55]

eleventy hundred points each.

The Kid I sat next to for Maths in school was like that. Big help !

Hi Shawna. I missed Say You Love Me ! I just added it and dropped one of my nominations 'Saturday In The Park' - which was a last minute replacement for a Who song I originally nominated.
