Song Contest Part XXII, Host: por_please_ya, Theme: Who, What, When, Where, Why, How, Noms Due: Thursday 10pm AEDT Time

[myblueroan]

Let's all posit theories on how Chicken in the Corn fits the theme.
WHere the corn is a giant penis being threatened by hen-pecking ball-chopping nit- picking partner who takes away their drive?

Or the Corn is Love itself that can't thrive due to (see above) or...the chicken is all the pressures of life or the singer is vegan and taking a stand.

An update on the contest from your host (me).

16 set of votes in, 10 to go.

There was an early runaway leader whose lead is being pegged back. Two donuts remain, billy looks like a two horse race.

A request to those yet to vote (that's you Dinsdale Freofalcon Harvey Manfrenjensenden JHF1870 Lunchlady Doris MC Bad Genius MP_ RedmanWasHere spudmaster & TubbsFarquhar) - I have to leave at sparrow's tomorrow morning to go into Melbourne for work so if you can get your votes in sooner rather than later to stop me from being up late as heck then you'd be doing me a solid.

Final update before the results from your host (me):

• Four sets of votes remaining (get your arses in gear JHF1870 MC Bad Genius spudmaster & TubbsFarquhar Bobby's gotta have an early one),
• Still tightish at the top, realistically three songs can win it,
• Billy down to three songs as well,
• One of those is super divisive and can do the double,
• All songs have been Oprah'd (you get a vote, you get a vote, and so on).

And in a wild coincidence, the good folk at MusicBrownlow on Twitter are running a contest involving songs with love in the title.

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

Voted, playlist is a bit iffy but the songs I voted for are very strong - just not a lot outside the top 6

Nice to have 2 Bee Gees tunes in the round.

 

[JHF1870]

Just woke up. Will give votes in soon

 

[RedmanWasHere]

If you're on Twitter and follow MusicBrownlow, get voting there too.

Thank you one and all for successfully discharging your democratic duty earlier than the deadline. This allows me to release the results and get to bed at a half decent hour (now watch me take three hours to announce the results!).

This one quite literally came down to the wire, so please join me as I tell you what happened...
