Three good songs this week!

we'll have to get what three are your "bad three" once the votes are in

[GarlicJam]

Quixotic is definitely my new favourite word. Leave Arthur be, it's nice to know someone who actually has the moral capacity to make a personal stand.

I agree with you - but I won't leave him alone. A couple of times I have expressed admiration of the strength of character that this takes.


And we all know, there's no point having a strong resolve unless some beggar comes along and tests it occasionally...

Three good songs this week!

At least five good ones. There is only the one I don't know (yet).


My nomination is one of my favourite songs ever. (so vote for it)

[Arthur Crabtree]

I like all of them.

Back up was I Just Dropped In to See What Condition My Condition Was In by The First Edition from The Big Lebowski.

[GarlicJam]

I'll try to find the song not on youtube. Cheers.

I might have mentioned it sometime before, but (despite the terrible name) Bandcamp is a great site and service for struggling musicians to be able to get a better return when someone buys their music. You can listen to all music, and then choose to buy it if you want.

CF & Stan's EP - https://skyscraperstan.bandcamp.com/album/tall-stories-ep - is a "name your price you are willing to pay". Others might have a minimum price - and it does feel good to pay more for an album, knowing (or assuming) that the extra money goes directly to the artist/s, and that Apple/iTunes/etc get stuff all.


Their album: https://skyscraperstan.bandcamp.com/album/last-years-tune

[Arthur Crabtree]

Thanks. I'm going to see if I can get it on CD first. Including the EP. Appreciate the info.

[rich1uk]

just waiting on one vote this week from someone who doesn't usually slack as well

[Arthur Crabtree]

Not GJ then...

[GarlicJam]

true.



It was probably my recent vote that had him thinking there is a(nother) slacker here.

[GarlicJam]

Thanks. I'm going to see if I can get it on CD first. Including the EP. Appreciate the info.

Yes, I got the CD of the album thorough Bandcamp. Downloaded the EP off their site.

[Aidan11]

Fraid i'm the guilty party but I've voted now.

[rich1uk]

Not sure if this was expected for the final theme but in line with the Movie Cup the final theme is ;

Week Eight Theme - Free For All

pick any one song but no songs that have been selected in any of the previous 7 rounds by anyone can be re-used

1st - Everybody's Talkin'

Well done everyone. I am pleased to see that you saw sense.

As I said, one of my all time favourite songs.
