The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Two American classics but “The Boxer” is all-world. Against “God Only Knows” I’d have picked The Beach Boys though.

That UFO sound on good vibrations does my head in plus there's just too much going on, the oooos, the weird sounds etc. I feel like I know where I am with the boxer

Gone for the California sunshine over the New York winter

Was gonna like both because they are equally brilliant but after listening to both back to back the rousing sing a long brilliance at the end of the Boxer takes it.

"I don't know where...but she sends me there". That line alone wins it for the Beach Boys.

IMO God Only Knows should win against anything that's been put up in this seasons cup. I would certainly vote for it against the 5 I nominated. It's been as interesting to see what's not been nominated as much as what has. As was mentioned after round 1, some huge bands missing.

Went for S & G but these are both great tracks and the last 2 in the competition that I would bother voting for in future rounds.

Morrisey marches on and can anyone stop 'How Soon Is Now?'
Dylan out.

Like A Rolling Stone 39 - 42 How Soon Is Now?
