[JHF1870]

In 4th and got my 5 votes for an artist I've never really appreciated unlucky not to poll more tbh. Not quite a podium but a nice tally.
A Song from an artist I love but didn't quite hit the spot

It’s a classic and I downvoted from 5 to 0

Plugger35 himself admitted that he expected the billy as he didn’t meet the no top 100 songs brief

MGMT was almost as bad as far as known songs go /ignoring your new music brief but I didn’t rate it as highly to begin with

 

[JHF1870]

This is the song that gave me the most frustration when it came to people voting. Lead for a fair way and got pipped at the end.

I haven't ever heard it before so I was ok with it. Most people recognize fast car.

I’ve nominated her before
And consider it one of her best known songs
Yes Fast Car is iconic but she has many other great ones too

This wasn’t the round for it and I’m floored that it did so well given it contradicted your brief

I haven't ever heard it before so I was ok with it. Most people recognize fast car.

The Boyzone cover was very popular over here

 

[JHF1870]

OMG wins again after I host. Think that's like the third time.

MWPP I'm notorious for setting restrictions and then not giving a **** about the rules haha I usually hear about it when spudmaster comes online.
