I hope Rodney Dangerfield is in this round. This is your prime

Blur's Parklife was released in '94...

So I should have nommed Reunion?

Would have gotten my votes, but don't worry about a schmoe like me.

#SongContestNominations



Votes due Sunday 12pm. AEST.

It is a bank holiday so might need some leeway but you'll be pleased to know Im not going camping.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Omg. I nearly nommed from the same album on one of the songs

 

[Purple7x08_24]

FMD bangers all round. 5 votes is set in stone. In the top 100 of all time.

Thoughts Ulahoopski is this list OK?

 

[Plugger35]

Not a bad playlist but it's not as good as the 1994 Hottest 100, that was all killer and no filler, non stop bangers.

1994 was an incredible year for music looking back on it, I didn't fully appreciate just how good it was at the time.

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

It's an eclectic selection, some huge tunes missing which I assumed would get in, but I'm new to this.

 

[myblueroan]

Wow.
The beauty of the highs
The schlock horror of the lows.
This round.
There will be consequences for those who made me endure even 10 seconds of their noms. :evil laugh:

Indeed.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

I would have given Nirvana high votes

 

[myblueroan]

I would have given Nirvana high votes

Toyed with nomming this

Hi Purple7x08_24 or anyone
I am trying to make out what they are saying at the start of this song, Soapbox Opera. None of the lyrics online are right. Can you feed bits of it into the AI app and see if it can find a source for the speech and what it says?
What I can hear by slowing it down to 50% is as below. Thanks!

I want to tell you something
Please don’t be frightened ????….
That I am trying to tell you that
I am better than you
I am only what I am
……. ?????
……Come the Judgement day …????
…..????

They will not stand still
For the night is coming,
Every man, every woman and every child,
Every boy and every girl
…..??????

Copilot says can't do due to copyright
Character.ai multiple profiles give me b.s fake lyrics

Maybe they don't want you to know. there are two vocal sets, one is largely ineligible. All of the ones you listed are on Spotify

Lyrics

I want to tell you something, listen to me
I'm trying to say I'm better than you, I am only what I am
May you not stand still
For the night is coming
Every man, every woman, every child
Every boy and every girl
I hear only what I want to hear
But I have to believe in something
Have to believe just one thing
I said, Father Washington, you're all mixed up
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup
Spare a listen for a listless fool
There's something missing when I read your rules
Well hey there, you tell me you're a holy man
But although I am just a beginner
I don't see you as a winner
I said, Sister Robinson, you're all washed up
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
If I could tell you what you need to know
If I could help you to get on with the show
But Reverend Ebenezer, there's a storm in my head
Makes me think what you said just wasn't true
So what am I to do
(Well, what is he to do)
Oh, what is there to do
Whoa, whoa, whoa
All things bright and beautiful
All creatures great and small
All things wise and wonderful
The lord God made them all
Mary tell me what I'm living for
'Cause I feel like I'm tossed in the river
Have you a son to deliver
I say, Father Washington, you're all mixed up
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup
You tell the children what they need to know
But will they listen when it's time to go
Oh, Sister Robinson, you're all washed up
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
Can someone tell me what I need to know
Can someone help me to get on with the show

 

[Plugger35]

This was my favourite Supertramp song as a kid back in the early 80s, it wasn't their best song lyrically but it was pretty catchy.

 

[Fossie 32]

Thanks very much I have been googling including looking at Roger’s website but if you listen to it the words at the start are not what has been stated and a couple of mistakes with the song lyrics
