only to rob

Hey it's Postcard

 

[GreyCrow]

I can't even do cryptic crosswords let alone try and understand crypto

Hey it's Postcard

the bicycle bandit robbed in mannum once, don't think he's ever been caught

 

[Ulahoopski]

we had our local bank close down last year, then they took away the only atm in town too. our bank in murray bridge shuts early, i feel for all the older people who use cash in our area

Pfft, they're probably the reason for branches closing...

What is the link to "Lucky Man"?

 

[MP_]

What is the link to "Lucky Man"?

Lucky man was a series written by Stan Lee who has the same surname as Bruce lee who is famous for martial arts would be my guess

 

[Drunkgoliath]

Did we have an explanation of some of these songs tenuous links to the theme?
I'm struggling to link Emma Bunton

The host's decision on accepting songs is final, whinging will just make you look like a loser.


I voted for the songs I liked - figured the host had their reasons

My 5 and 1 will surprise

HAHA, wasn't whinging, was genuinely curious as I worked out most of the others and couldn't work out the link for Lucky Man. I've wanted to host this round for the last 15 rounds and Spud was kind enough to take it on.

My nomination will surprise, probably not my votes, typical of my voting style.

I will say my 1 was my early Billy contender - then I had another few listens and it snuck in the votes

I listened to the whole playlist again and changed my votes before locking them in. One song went from no votes to 5 votes.

Moods definitely change the way you feel songs. I guess someone's gon.......nah better not.

Sorry just seeing these now. The drummer for ELP shared a first name with the person who sung Kung Fu Fighting. But also would've accepted 'lucky' as in getting in a lucky shot, got lucky with the judges results etc etc.

the original link was eMMA for mixed martial arts. But upon further investigation, the nomer discovered Emma's Mum taught karate.

You should well know I don't give a flying **** THAT songs are accepted. Just interested to know the nommers reasoning.

If I'm bored I quite enjoy playing 'try to figure out the nom's link to the theme' as much as I do listening to the songs!

posh and gerry i disliked the most, emma and sporty my faves

 

[The Filth Wizard]

I always loved Geri most. In later years I respected Mel C more.

The only good thing to come out of the Spice Girls was getting introduced to a bottle of Fireball backstage at a Spice Girls cover band gig. My gf at the time was filling in for a member - Ginger? Thank **** for the Fireball.
