Song Contest Part XIV, Host: Ulahoopski, Theme: Songs Starting With a Vowel, Votes Due: Wednesday 9pm AEST

[Drunkgoliath]

Are people nomming and voting for the games rather than the songs this round?
I missed that memo

I was wondering that also, how many votes are going to nostalgia or because they're linked to a greater OST or game.
I'd like to think my votes will be going to the best stand alone songs, pity I can't vote for my own

Is this 'The Video game contest'????
Great game/shit song = Billy.

 

[Ulahoopski]

I thought the remake factor would allow it.
But I went original and obscure in the end
Ulahoopski I still expect you to overlook it though

Original and obscure does not outweigh sappy, sentimental, sugary, lyrically lame or Disneyesque.
Now what are the overlook chances?

How good was Croc 2?

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

This whole soundtrack rips.

 

[Loonerty]

Fun playlist. Two noms stuck out as Billy options for me though, not because they were bad necessarily.

I was casually flirting with a girl the other day until she mentioned her mother is younger than me.
