[Drunkgoliath]

Nope. Is it good?

 

[ChappyUK]

Nope. Is it good?

It is good but it's quite harrowing.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

"Greg's Discount Chemist" by Carla Geneve

Nice pick!

One of the best but also one of the most obvious and overplayed.

I preferred the subtlety of Clapton.

J.J. Cale's your man if subtlety's the game.





Anyway here y'all go:

For being so anal about not accepting cold and flu tablets as a drug, accepting an instrumental because it's from a soundtrack of a drug themed movie is pretty strange.

 

[GreyCrow]

'The Hosts decision is final'

'The Hosts decision is final'

Doesn't make it immune from criticism.

 

[GreyCrow]

Certainly doesnt. Do you feel better though?

Billy the instrumental

Wasn't the worst thing on the playlist, so no.

I'm just aggrieved because I felt like my original nom is more fitting than it.

 

[SM]

People are allowed to vent frustration when their noms weren't accepted for petulant reasons that others were accepted in spite of.

 

[Loonerty]

People complain about noms not fitting the theme all the time, GreyCrow. Dunno why you're getting defensive about this one.

I'm bored

 

[Loonerty]

Mmhmm.

Well good luck with your instrumental nom.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

It reminds me of when Woke Up This Morning was accepted in the Italian Round despite being a song by an English band used in an American TV series about an Italian-American family in New Jersey.

Did you copy and paste my old rant?

Worst host acceptance ever por_please_ya.

The worst part was that it ****ing won.

 

[MWPP]

I voted with integrity in that Italian round . Luckily the banga of a playlist made it easy to stick to songs which properly fit the theme

This time, it’s going to be impossible for me to overlook the instrumental masterpiece due to the weak list though (and no, it isn’t my song)

And some hosts knock back noms that don't fit the theme. Time to let it go kids.

Ulahoopski despite me being friends with por_please_ya , and having my musical differences with you , this was my rather unsympathetic reaction when she noted that her initial nom was accepted and then rejected after you looked it up:
“I’m glad that he’s hosting properly. Would’ve been far worse for someone to note that on the thread.....Good on him for hosting properly “

And to her credit she concurred with me
“I am glad he’s checking properly”

Respect
**if you billy me despite giving me the credit where it was due for appropriateness , I might withdraw that respect

The cold never bothered me anyway

 

[MWPP]

The worst part was that it ******* won.

Poor William Wonka

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Poor William Wonka

Not really, he won with a questionable nom and then was able to troll us all. He would've had the time of his life.

People are allowed to vent frustration when their noms weren't accepted for petulant reasons that others were accepted in spite of.

Next time I'll be sure to spell out the criteria in bullet point form for all the strugglers.

Songs with a thematic reference to drug or alcohol use.
This is an attempt to gather a collection of songs with the theme of recreational drug or alcohol use/abuse.
This does not include passing references to therapeutic medicines.
Instrumentals with an obvious association to film or television as represented in the chosen video are allowed.
Songs about alcohol wipes used for sterilisation not allowed.
Songs about breweries, pubs, chemists, pharmacists or anything other than users of the chosen substances I.e recreational drugs and alcohol are not permitted.

**** me. Hosting is like tutoring.
