I just discovered that was the original version of Fever so that was interesting

Gave it 5. It's fabulous. Great voice and he wrote a classic song!
Was my choice too...Peggy Lee's version. I'd been re watching The Queen's Gambit which features it.
Porps let me know there was an original version nommed and I opted out.

Ahh, another person who can't handle a rhythm change. 7/4 or 7/8 is just uncommon, but also the fact that it changes to 4/4 in the middle of the song is odd. However, it makes it one of the coolest damn sounding pieces out there.

You’re assuming he listened long enough to get to the rhythm change

5. Heart – Alone
4. Pink Floyd – Money
3. Phoenix - Lasso
2. Sobi - Pearl
1. Black Marble – Frisk

BM – Sad Piano – Cheat (Nowhere near as bad as most Billys, just was a bit boring and sounds like a lot of other piano songs)

spudmaster I was so close to using your song in Wordle yesterday but I knew it wouldn't be a word.

It's very Philip Glass like. I didn't expect it to get billied. It's a dark piece so it's not going to appeal to everyone.

por_please_ya and the spreadsheet people

The artist for my song was Lucas King

HE needs to start nomming some songs so the good ones don't get billied.

I nommed a pirate song...before like minded Tonga's post. And then I wondered how many Pirate songs there might be
But then Tubbs realised my song didn't actually start with an Arrrr...or even an R..

So Rats!

I'll take that as sarcasm given how good last round was
