It would be good to hear how the songs on the list relate to world leaders

Trust in the Chipmunk - he generally goes to a bit more effort when he's hosting. All will be revealed when the votes are released.

Is there any in particular? Very happy to reveal any of the links.

And a bit more effort MC Bad Genius ? I got the PM to host this round!

I mean, you go to a bit more effort than other hosts. I didn't phrase that very well.

Could you please reveal them all?
Most seem vague (not mine!)

Haha okay, when I get out of bed later. I explicitly said tenuous was okay.

Tenuous is one thing, but some of these supposed "world leaders" aren't even world leaders

 

[Chipmunk]

I think you’ve proven your own point there.

 

[MWPP]

Someone had to do it

Sexy in Latin
Brown Eyed Girl
Let You Down
I Will Not Go Quietly
Pray For Me
Lets Go to Bed
No More Heroes
Endless Nation
Drachme Tolosate
Born At The Right Time

 

[por_please_ya]

I was too focussed on politicians as opposed to 'world leaders'. I'm not that happy with my link.

 

[por_please_ya]

I'd like to know these tenuous ones so I can give them no votes.

Surprised nobody nommed a Dido song after the fan girls got it up.

But if the host allowed tenuous links, then why does that matter? It's about the music.

I voted for the songs I liked the most. And to be frank there weren't that many I liked and I struggled to even give out a 5.

I love 3 songs straight up, 3 more are good, the rest are so so. 2 songs are not my scene, and one I absolutely hate with a passion.

 

[Loonerty]

tenuous = creative

Contest's gone if we punish what's allowed.

Yeah, I'm just taking the piss. I think its good when people take the time to research music, even if by lyrics search.
