Song Contest Part XXII, Host: Fossie 32, Theme: 1980s, Votes Due: Wednesday 9pm AEST Time

[RedmanWasHere]

Something to get tongues a wagging.

Eurovision alumni Joost and Kaarija have released, appropriately, a Eurovision like song called Trafik.

It's Eurovision worthy.
It's billy worthy.

Pick ya poison.

2: The Last Dinner Party - Burn Alive Loonerty
1: Shaboozy - Tipsy (A Bar Song) Ocha905

Just for you because you appreciate quality and originality, here's a longer version of Rahzel's song which is a battle between two beatboxers and two DJ's. The video goes hard as well.

I know, Rahzel aside, there's Kenny Muhammad in there.

Love this album! I knew of Rahzel independently (maybe through his work with The Roots?) but the track he's on here is great too.

No. TBH, for me part of the enjoyment is selecting from my vast array of internalised record vaults.
Usually melodies will come to mind if the theme is something that resonates with 'the vault'.
When I do have to search a bit, if I'm stumped or my choices won't be valid, I usually find a gem that I really want to nom anyway.

Not this time. It feels like wearing someone elses clothes that don't quite suit you.
