The Songfactors' Choice Top Ten #45


Lucky

Recommended Posts

I think so too! I love reading your stats. Tells a lot about US ( The SF's ), I think...

I'm checking them once and checking them twice now... we have a few left to nominate, but not many! Great songs too. This will be tough for me.

As for the "Supergroups".... The Eagles are at the top of the heap, with the Stones and The Beatles for me, I just mentioned the ones that seem to show up, and have that distinction by popular opinion ( not OURS ) . I've tried to get the Eagles in several times..... :stars: :(

Ohhhh, and hey I wanted to welcome Lexxi Marie! We're so glad you joined us hon!! :thumbsup:

Due to a weird connection, I'm working on 2 computers at the moment, pc and laptop. They seem to be alternating connection. It's making me crazy!! =:P

By my reckoning we now have 48 nominations, with 3 "regulars" still to nominate, Daslied, Shadows, and Malakin, if he is available. He may not be... now watch, I missed someone very important.... that's my luck!

Of course anyone (and everyone!) else is very welcome to please join in!! :):)

Well, I'm not keeping score (leave that to Farin) but "You Really Got Me" is polling well. I'm a big fan of The Kinks, but I didn't vote for this one because it self - plagiarises "All Day And All Of The Night" ! Almost the same song with different words, to my untrained ear anyway. If it gets to #1 (as "All Day And All Of The Night" did) it will be an absolute joke !

If you get a good riff stick to it ???

:P

I just went back to see who nominated it. No offence intended Dappled. I'm probably cranky because I couldn't get my favorite Kinks' song "Waterloo Sunset" in the Ten, despite nominating it 3 times (I think).
