blind-fitter Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 I get what you're saying, Mr. Fitter. I was under the mistaken perception that one of your noms made the Top Ten. Must've been one of the other recently ended ones. No Frank Black for you? I thought you might be the other one who would vote for it. Almost certainly would have, if your link had worked, but the video had been taken off for a code violation. Can't vote for a song I've not heard before, can I?

daslied Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 It got taken off? Those people are bastards. Oh well, it's still a cool song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Not one of my favorite top tens. When I think of the eighties all I visualize is Nancy Reagan. I am in therapy now to combat this horrid affliction. Not red evening dresses AGAIN , Phil -I thought you were over that !?! Now I understand the demotion to AAA Hoboken . At least you didn't bet on baseball ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLizard Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 with all the talk about country songs, I want to thank Mr. Lizard for being the only one, besides me, to vote for Hotel Yorba - and even higher than me! I love that song! I suppose I'm sort of a Jack White fanboy... I, too, am not overly excited by this Top Ten, but one of my nominations made it again, so it's sort of fun to be on this roll (this comment will probably generate a backlash against whatever I nominate next time ). I'd like to give a special to the Cash family, who barely missed out on my vote. Kevin's right, who cares about the 80's, it's about time we got some country in there.

OLD 55 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 I just deleted some Posts in the Archive Thread, as it makes it too cluttered. As Farin said, this thread is the one for comments - which he welcomes, as all feedback is appreciated - but the Archives are for referral purposes. I was all ready to announce that I was leaving today - some already knew - but I've decided I'm going to stick around a little longer to participate in the Ten/s. I'll take no part in the running of the Ten - Farin and Lucky are quite capable of doing that. They, and Chris, do a wonderful job. Sorry if I upset anybody in voicing my opinions yesterday. I was letting off steam because I was leaving. The lesson there is that you should never make your words 'bitter' because you might have to eat them later. I also really agree that a weekly Top Ten is the most practical. .................................................. Not my favorite Top Ten, but I was very pleased to at last see an 80s #1, and by an NZ/Australian Group. Two (or three) firsts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Fish Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Pfft, you can't leave and you know it. Who would make sure I wouldn't raise a ruckus in the thread? Don't let the younger generation win!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Thanks Namahage. I'm not really one of those who resent (for want of a better word) the "Younger Generation" and see my generation through rose coloured glasses. Anyway, you don't fool me - you're really an OK guy. I'd just like to say to all that the bit about leaving wasn't a 'grandstand play'. I sat at the computer this morning with the intention of typing that.

OLD 55 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 AH ! I was just about to go back and see who nominated it. Nice one Laurie. And also to whoever nominated it before, when it didn't make it ? Might have been you then too ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 I don't think it was me the first time....I'm glad to see my other nomination "Comes A Time" just made it also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 I would've had 2 in the top ten, if I would've given my second choice a higher vote. Good list nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Dear edna. As you're my 'longest' (not the oldest) friend here, you knew a couple of days ago that I was going to leave Songfacts completely because I was so depressed. When it came to the crunch I couldn't do it. Thanks for being you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Darryl, you cannot leave, how many times will we have to tell you so? Not only we´re your other family, this is also "Hotel California", remember? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_s_1987 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Go Crowded House! If I remember correctly, I nominated Don't Dream It's Over almost a year ago, and it only managed about 20 or so points. Then I believe Shadows nominated it not too long ago, and it narrowly missed out on the top ten. Most number ones seem to be renominations these days.

Steel2Velvet Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Kind of a a different top ten for me. I didn't even notice until after the fact that "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover" was in the running. That is such a great song. So neat to see "Jackson" make it.

OLD 55 Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 I've just been browsing through YouTube with my Lista (lista ones to nominate). I only have 36 on it now - and that doesn't include any Beatles or Stones. Good for another 18 weeks unless somebody else nominates some of them.
