I'm familiar with about half the songs on the current list. Have avoided this game, for the most part, in the past because the lists were either entirely awful or I didn't know enough of the songs.

Apparently Bobby Charlton is an international household name so I voted Dennis Skinner this time.

trying a new tactic: only voting for names nobody's heard of outside of the UK. Chose Bobby Charlton this time

This Weekend at Bernie's sequel doesn't seem as fun as the last one

I really missed the boat not getting my Pittsburgh theme team done in time. Would've been the joker and, at least, the second hit already. Oh well

July 4

The great Severiano Ballesteros, who succumb to brain cancer back in 2011, would have been 66 years old today. This week also marks the 40th anniversary of his second Masters victory. Interestingly, the last two times the Masters has ended on Seve's birthday a Spaniard has won. Sergio Garcia back in 2017 and Jon Rahm today.

Ridiculously talented musician, to say the least. Very sad loss

At the speed things seem to be progressing with the other Frank, we can all look forward to wishing him a happy 100th in 19 short years

Bloody good album
