@Coatigan Before I make more of a fool of myself than normal, am I correct that the list of 15 tunes are songs that were new to people when the album they came from was selected?

Can't vouch for every one, but yeah most will be.

Tough guesses these, given the format.

For example, given that BimboBob nominated Greta Van Fleet, I can only imagine me, OB1 or Gornik selecting this for the playlist, but then none of us would have discovered them here.

1. Deacon Brodie - the Yawpers OB1
2. The Heat Above - Greta Van Feet Coatigan
3. Naden - Bad//Dreems Black&White&Blue
4. The Wheel - Idles Journolud
5. New Sensation- Idles threespires
6. Down to Believing - Alison Moorer Mancitydoogle
7. Blood under the bridge - Frightened Rabbit Saddleworth2
8. I'm so happy I cry - Fantastic Negrito BimboBob
9. Stacy's Mom - Fountains of Wayne RobMCFC
10. Time it's time - Talk Talk Notthreespireshonest
11. The Pan Within - The Waterboys LGWIO
12. Brave new world - war of the worlds Mr.Belfry
13. Under the pressure - war on drugs BlueHammer85
14. Rosalie - Thin Lizzy GornikDaze
15. The enchanter - the budos band bennyboy

Top 5 Songs

1. The Heat Above - Greta Van Feet
2. The Pan Within - The Waterboys
3. Under the Pressure - War on Drugs
4. Stacy's Mom - Fountains of Wayne
5. Down to Believing - Alison Moorer

Looking forward to seeing the results.

You may have at least one wrong Rob :)

Everyone taking this very seriously and not playing their hands too early...or is it a case of lots of research scouring posts to work out voting on the 15 selections?

I haven’t got a clue who picked what. I don’t even know which is mine

I think the technical term is, a lead balloon.

 

[LGWIO]

I think the technical term is, a lead balloon.

Or...is it a case of everyone leading exciting and fun packed lives, so no time.......... except Rob

Great concept but trying to guess posters pick is a needle in a haystack- don’t mind having a go but would be complete guessing.

Arrgh, managed to delete my list of of finally tuned guesses. Will do it again quickly after tea, but if it turns out to be not as good as my first effort which was definitely at least 86% right, that'll be why.


Unrelated - at the moment pretty much the only adverts I get on BM are for Saucony running shoes and Fenders; I don't remember ticking the Windows option to only receive trolling adverts that mock my deficiencies but clearly I did.
