The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

I’m 71 and thought it tedious.

FOC!!! Fair assessment............. ;-)

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

A top drawer effort from Bowie vs. a song I’ve always thought was pretty indifferent by the Stones. Easy one for me.

Top riff though no?

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

I’m only calling it out because the error is particularly funny to a Yank. If you’d called them Blue Oyster **** I’m sure the Brits here would be on it. :)

They'd be getting my vote........... :-)

As we approach a few days break before the Quarter Final.


Biggest vote score = R2 M22 Heroes - 57 votes

Biggest Attendance = R2 M22 Heroes v Irish Blood, English Heart - 71 votes

Lowest score = Julie Fowles, Emika, Keane and Annie Lennox - 2 votes

Lowest Attendance = R1 M40 Calexico v Julie Fowles - 12 votes

Biggest shock ? - tough to choose this one, I'll go for Kate Bush (The Man With the Child in His Eyes) knocking out Led Zeppelin (Kashmir)

Good stats them BH!

However, if Annie Lennox had passed she would be fucking spinning in her grave to be only dragging in as many votes as Keane FFS................

It’s okay. I prefer them a bit crunchier, like on Gimme Shelter and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking.

Sad in concept but not execution — without Dave she’s a songstress performing middling tunes IMO. With Eurythmics she was part of something bigger.

Biggest score - against Morrissey
Biggest attendance - again, the haters all turning up in numbers to oust The Bard Of Stretford.

But remember, he who laughs last......

You spelled **** incorrectly :)

In fairness she was up against a very strong 10cc track.

Definitely part of something bigger with Eurythmics (mooted they may tour at some point which would be brilliant).

Still surprises me at the lack of affection for Little Bird - even utilised on Sopranos ffs.............

Perhaps I didn't type it loud enough.

Ahem;














'As many votes as Keane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
