Live, sure. That recording? Dreadful

Been listening to Harvey Manfrenjensenden too much.

 

[Plugger35]

I hope Something White and Sydney wins.

Cheer Cheer the red and the white,

 

[J_Chadwick]

Why am I not surprised Radiohead will win this

 

[SSwans2011]

Oh no, 2 of the biggest whores I've seen in song contest history (nobody tell Back One Out I said that) still in the running.

Thankfully, so am I. Hopefully I can save us all from a disgusting whore victory.

 

[Back One Out]

Woah you sure showed me, BOO.

Yeah, I really showed you. Didn't I?


WTF are you on about?

Your billy shortlist is laughable. In fact, your whole take (every round) on the billy madison is a joke.
Just because you've heard a good tune from a great band a few times before, that does not make it the worst song on the playlist.

It's Song Contest.

Not Songs You've Never Heard Before Contest

That song was so average..

Not Songs You've Never Heard Before Contest

Radiohead has been nommed over 40 times though and Tool are the most obvious choice when it comes to time signatures

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

That song was so average..

I thought it was a good song that didn't make my votes.

 

[the fly]

In 10th place and the Billy Madison winner with 19 votes and 5 Billy votes:
Pyramid Song by Radiohead, nominated by manangatang

Here is your new avatar.




In 9th place with 19 votes and 1 Billy vote:
Pink + White by Frank Ocean, nominated by SSwans2011

In 8th place with 19 votes:
Demons by The National, nominated by Elton Johns Wig

 

[Plugger35]

I bet the fly nommed Love Outside Andromeda

Only he could nom an Aussie band that quirky.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Wow that's a harsh Billy.

Not Songs You've Never Heard Before Contest

Radiohead have been nommed in this song contest 46 times. That song itself had been nommed 3 times. Tool have been nommed 19 times and 'Schism' is close to the most laughably predictable choice by them. If people aren't going to show some creativity and put some effort into their noms, excuse me for giving them the Billy.

At least most of the time when someone nominates something 'shit', they put some effort into it. They don't deserve a Sandler avatar for putting in effort, but unfortunately picking something people don't like. Someone phoning it in absolutely does deserve the Sandler avatar.

Glad you're not trying to defend the ridiculous suggestion that Crowded House belonged on said shortlist, as evidenced by the fact they got 0 billy votes, as usual.

 

[SSwans2011]

I personally think Crowded House and most pop rock is hideously dated. Putting them on the shortlist was perhaps harsh, though, because it was always a two-horse race.

 

[raskolnikov]

Wow that's a harsh Billy.

No it's not. The theme is songs not in common time.

 

[Plugger35]

Nothing like a good old fashioned argument between results.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Nothing like a good old fashioned argument between results.

Yes there is.
