The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

[LWashington]

This game is dead to me, after the Depeche Mode debacle.

Yes. The rule makers failed to Get The Balance Right.

 

[Stuuuuuu]

Truly a heavyweight round etc.

Much respect and admiration for Simon & Garfunkel but it's The Smiths every time.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

M*******y ruins a lot of things. Songs, mainly. As soon as he opens his mouth.

I don’t agree, but LOL anyhow.In all humo(u)r is at least a grain of truth.

 

[Black&White&BlueMoon Town]

Yes. The rule makers failed to Get The Balance Right.

well....

I don't want to start any blasphemous rumors, but...

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Yes. The rule makers failed to Get The Balance Right.

Every vote counts in large amounts

 

[Nightmare Walking]

You need to get a New Life pal

I feel you.

 

[LWashington]

Every vote counts in large amounts

You just can't get enough of them.

 

[LWashington]

well....

I don't want to start any blasphemous rumors, but...

You better leave in silence then. See you later.

 

[The Black Shed]

Another full house with The Boxer holding a healthy lead going into the final minutes. 41-30

 

[BlueHammer85]

Comfortable for Simon & Garfunkel, the deadly duo in the ring and The Boxer does it once again.
The Smiths do not make the final.

The Boxer 42 - 31 How Soon Is Now?

 

[blueparrot]

I'll wait for a mystery VAR check before any celebrations this time.

 

[threespires]

Comfortable for Simon & Garfunkel, the deadly duo in the ring and The Boxer does it once again.
The Smiths do not make the final.

The Boxer 42 - 31 How Soon Is Now?

..and all my hope is gone.

[surrounded by idiots]

After the way Depeche Mode were treated Its surely time for a Black Celebration

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

I believe this is the fourth round in a row where The Boxer has received 42 votes. Uncanny consistency!

 

[MellowJoe]

So this is what it all boils down to.. Simon and Garfunkel vs The Rolling Stones.. it'd be funny if nobody voted

 

[pluto]

I believe this is the fourth round in a row where The Boxer has received 42 votes. Uncanny consistency!

42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything

 

[PragueBlue]

I believe this is the fourth round in a row where The Boxer has received 42 votes. Uncanny consistency!

Looking at the changes to the scores from thee last round, I assume that The Boxer is your one and bennyboy's is The Stones.

I know which is my choice but I think it could be a close run thing.

I am certain it will be close. I actually am positively shocked either of these made it to the final but that’s a cup for you . . .
