I like BoG the best, but at this late stage staying in its corner is a futile effort.

Either this is being severely trolled.

 

Or the folk on here have dreadful appreciation of music - that's different from what you like, I have no problem with that. :lol:

In much the same way as sticking with your chosen celebs till they die, I'm sticking with my chosen tunes till the end of the round.

If Death Impends had voted for Freda which she likes the best we would have a 3 way tie for the crucial 4th place.

If not voting Freda yesterday ends up a critical mistake, I'm going to feel rather like the various Democrats in 1992 who felt "oh Bush Sr is too popular to lose reelection, I'm not running..."

 

Phone not letting me unbold Simon and Garfunkel or Slade, will fix within an hour

I believe Smokey Robinson is only at top spot because we are all trying to save or kill Freda Payne.

If my count's correct, -26 +20 for BoG today, which won't be enough to save her if repeated tomorrow. If, indeed, she lasts tonight...

 

I actually thought the 4 looked set yesterday, but it's changed again. Intriguing to see where the BoG votes go if it falls!

Gone the way of Smiley Lewis, Chuck Berry, and Fats Domino.

 

Though not yet Huey Smith.

Presumably Payne and (sadly) Hendrix don't have long left, as the forum have multiple Osmonds to murder later this week, Err, I mean, Round 2, and who knows what the options are there.
