3 people got both their nominations in! And it has happened more than once. It's rather often that 2 people get both their nominations in the Top Ten. It's more unusual that one person gets both noms as #1 and #2! Hmmmm, maybe we should put up a Hall of Fame for those extraordinary talents?!? ;);)

Another 2nd placing! I'm always the Bridesmaid. :P

Thanks for the great info, Lars. We used up too many good songs early ! Some of those near the bottom of that Ten would be #1s now. Except for those stoned out Hippy Freaks of edna's. Although I nominated 'Somebody To Love', because they weren't eating funny mushrooms in that.

Goodnight All ! ;)

if someone gets #1 and #2 it doesn't mean that they nominated the best songs, only the most mainstream ones...

so, if we could name this "hall of fame" accordingly...

;) :grin:
