Steel2Velvet Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Some of Burdon´s covers are -for me- even better than the originals. "Ring of Fire", for instance. "Hey Gip". "To love somebody" is excelent. He slacked off on "Bring It On Home." Burdon's mirror-take can be more closely construed as an homage than a reconstituted cover of Sam Cooke's definitive version.

The Seeker Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 I'm afraid we'll have to be patient. There's a mess that has to be sorted out before we can start voting. And I sure hope it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 We all love Martin. We want him here and this is nonsense... he´s one of the coolest and most usefull people here. I know, this isn´t the right thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 I fully agree with you. I also agree with the fact that we need all the good songfactors around. I just know that quite a few regulars have left in the past--and I'm not sure if this is a good way to make people stay. Let's just hope he won't be banned for long.

Lucky Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Sorry everyone, I cannot access the things I need to, to open the voting up... I think maybe that isn't what everyone is thinking of right now anyway? So, voting will have to be postponed until approximately 3:30 PM (PDT). We'll extend the voting of course to give everyone plenty of time. I don't know what is happening, but Lucky is not pleased either.... Martin!

OLD 55 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Well, I just got here. I'm trying to find out what the hell Martin did to earn the ire of whichever Mod ? If anybody knows please PT me. I'm not privy to the "inner mod sanctum", being only a Mod for this Thread. I'm a Mushroom Mod. Funny thing is I also have the power to ban people. Lucky will open the Top Ten soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
