The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

@BlueHammer85 plans to return to controlling the thread today, so I'll just launch today's match before letting him re-take the reins.

Please click 'Like' on the song you prefer.

Round 1/M31
Velvet Underground (Oh Sweet Nothing)
v
Lift To Experience (These Are The Days)

Well played Rob. Appropriate for the competition that your stint ends with two obscure and forgettable tracks. We've had some big hitters step to the plate last few days. These two are both 3 and outs.

 

[City Hobgoblin]

Part of the enjoyment of this thread is listening to what you might think are obscure tracks. Both these worth several of your minutes I think.

 

[tornandfrayed]

The VU track was a bit of a strange choice - probably not even in the top 20 of their best songs. I suppose Sister Ray might be a bit much for this thread.

It’s a magnet for drunk middle aged women

You promise?

 

[NZBlue]

The Velves all the way on this one

Cheers Rob!

 

[mancity1]

Err… I’m sure ‘Question’ will feature ;-)

Don't give it away levets.

 

[NZBlue]

I'll go for Eva Cassidy (in full psychic mode)

 

[threespires]

The joy of music, two completely different songs but both wonderful in their own way. That said, as lovely as Eva Cassidy's interpretation is, it doesn't top Christine McVie singing the original so I think it'll be Massive Attack for me.

Either I'm drunk stupid or blind but where are the songs.

Nurse nurse

Massive thanks to @RobMCFC for not only stepping in but actually doing a better job! @Mad Eyed Screamer also for editing the titles.
Night time baby feeds may mean we keep some rescheduled kick off times - but will fit them in daily.
Thanks for all the messages and PMs folks.

Right. where was we.
The velvets comfortably through!

Oh! Sweet Nuthin' 16 - 4 Lift To Experience
