Dappled Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 actually I once played with the idea of nominating "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" (Édith Piaf) or "Azzuro" (by Adriano Celentano) but until now all songs that were NOT in English (was it two or three?) all had disastrous outcomes... vote-wise And I played with the idea of nominating Johnny Halliday!
OLD 55 Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 He looks like he modelled himself on Eddie Cochran, with a touch of Tommy Steele, and a little of Gene Vincent Dappled !
blind-fitter Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 actually I once played with the idea of nominating "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" (Édith Piaf) I went a step further and nominated "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" in September 2006. Hardly anyone voted for it.
Farin Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 I didn't vote for it either but when I look at my votings from that Ten it seems that it was a hard decision for me...
edna Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 I went a step further and nominated "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" in September 2006. Hardly anyone voted for it. I did...

daslied Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 I voted for B-F's Edith Piaf song, too. I love her. "Killing In The Name" - Rage Against The Machine http://youtube.com/watch?v=N_WUGDGb8Vk "Man In The Box" - Alice In Chains http://youtube.com/watch?v=bMCBsp7fjQc

But I love you for thinking of me. I'll check it out when I get home. Spoonman - Soundgarden Cumbersome - Seven Mary Three

TheLizard Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Get Up Offa That Thing- James Brown Waiting for the Sun- The Doors
CanAm Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 1. Moonlight Shadow - Mike Oldfield. I just love Maggie Reilly's voice and IMO, Mike Oldfield is a vastly underrated guitarist and multi-instrumentalist. Great guitar solo! Link 2. Crystal Blue Persuasion - Tommy James & The Shondells. Link
OLD 55 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 NAMAHAGE'S NOMINATIONS. Want It Back (Clavinet Hater Version) - Seatbelt (terrible audio quality sucks) Existence - Kevin Max Enjoy my obscure tastes.
OLD 55 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 1. Total Eclipse of the Heart ~ Bonnie Tyler 2. Jessie's Girl ~ Rick Springfield Two of my all time favourite songs Shawna. I nominated Jessie's Girl a long time ago, not sure if I also nominated Total Ecipse.... I could never understand how they didn't make it. Better luck this time.
Shawna Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Thanks, Darryl I had forgotten all about "Eclipse" until I got addicted to youtube last night and found the video whilst trolling around. And I, too, nominated Jessie's Girl quite a while ago... I know it got some votes, but I remember being surprised that it didn't make the Ten. Of course, in my eyes, anything Rick Springfield does is... at least worthy of a look I also found out that he's back on General Hospital!
Red Fish Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 (edited) Sorry, I didn't mean that to be taken that way. It looked similar to another thing... but that's not what the symbol was intended to be. Sorry again to those who were offended. Edited February 20, 2007 by Guest
OLD 55 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 As I keep saying....you're really a nice young feller.
Uncle Joe Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 A couple of 80's tunes: 1-It's Still Rock 'n Roll To Me-Billy Joel LIVE 2-Fire-Pointer Sisters LIVE
OLD 55 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Of course, in my eyes, anything Rick Springfield does is... at least worthy of a look I also found out that he's back on General Hospital! What, as a patient Shawna ? He's nearly as old as me. I suppose we more mature men do exude a worldly charm.
c_s_1987 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Hmm, it's getting quite a lot harder for me to think of what to nominate without getting back in to my constant cycle of renominations. Peaches even took one of my possible nominations, "Spoonman". I'll certainly vote for it. The Importance Of Being Idle - Oasis I Want It All - Queen
Jenny Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 I already have 13 songs I want to nominate, not counting these! Brighter Than Sunshine - Aqualung True Colors - Cyndi Lauper
bazooka Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Bad to the Bone -- George Thorogood .. video guest-stars Thorogood's spiritual coach Bo Diddley. Gimme Little Sign -- Brenton Wood 1) better audio 2) better video
