[Sleepiestpeep 158]

a sudden burst of agreement!

[ladyfiona 2,577]

While I love the song. I can now stop listening to Hey There Delilah. Also i'm pretty sure it was on a TV soundtrack but I don't know where from. Originally I thought it was from The OC but now not so sure.

[TQR 14,386]

Good good, that's that round done! Thanks to everyone for gratefully receiving my bribe and flicking Brandon Flowers a keen middle finger. @ladyfiona, you have next dibs on the new round if you want 

 

Speaking of which...the last qualifier before the final. 4 go through...see if you can find that many good ones.

[Sleepiestpeep 158]

Have put it into a playlist to listen to in the morning... by which time I imagine you'll have knocked out at least one of 'em. It's missing the Geraldine McQueen which isn't on Spotify.

You'll have to find it. It's the winning song for the winner of "Britain's Got the Pop Factor... and Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice."

If it makes it past 10am I'll put the effort in...

Thank heavens for small mercies. It's on YouTube though, if you must, with added Cat Deeley.

Yeah, the only one I really disliked was safe, so I didn't hurry.

[En Passant 3,741]

Nope, apparently still too old.

NEXT!

 

 

 edit: I do actually know MJ's Man in the Mirror - Trouble is that just makes it worse.

It's a fair bet if you were too old for 06-07 that you'll be too old for 08-09 two years later.

It's not even that I wouldn't like some of them perhaps, just the way things are delivered since (I dno? 2k? maybe?) means I just never hear most of it. Certainly not qualified to vote, so won't.

Fair enough, though you could always give them a skim-listen if you had the time/stomach for it?
