5 - down in the flood - great track. The guitar solo at the end of this was tucking sick. Good to see el dub go from my billy to my five.
4 - dry the rain - loved the build up this had. Really enjoyable song. Started off a bit mellow but still intriguing.
3 - don’t work at yellow snow suite - frank zappa is just a crazy and eccentric bastard and I wouldn’t have him any other way.
2 - butterflies and hurricanes - one of the best tracks from the last decent muse album (bhar was “ok”)
1 - it never rains in Southern California - no idea why this one resonated with me so well but it was a really great song.

Hm - only happy when it rains (pretty sure I’ve voted for this before - great song but above were better)
Here comes the rain again (Annie Lennox. I mean. Need I say more? I love the strings in this)
Franz Ferdinand - Ulysses (great track even if it sounded a little mainstream)
Vaughan Monroe - Let it Snow (expected this to be my billy. But his beautiful baritone voice saved it. Was quite pleasant)
Snow Patrol - crack the shutters (surprisingly good song for this band I frankly don’t think much of)
Singing in the rain - impossible not to smile as you watch this dick head literally running around in the pouring rain.
Ccr - who’ll stop the rain (best of the whores. I can see this winning)
I can see clearly - I love this song. Though this version is ok it’s not as good as the cover. Yeah I said it. Fight me.

Dishonourable mentions - boring dull shit from something for Kate (sorry marklar), smashing pumpkins, bob Dylan (no shocker there), the tide is high (one of my least favourite blonde songs), Leonard Cohen(yeah he’s a dead campaigner - so what. I find him almost as dull as Dylan. Sue me)
Oh yeah and ******* Peter Gabriel who came so mother******* close to my billy. That song ate penis.
And a bunch of others.

Billy - the end of the rainbow (the second half of this playlist was awfully disappointing save for the above two I voted for but this was probably the most dull and unlikaeble song)
Teach me how to melt. Im horrendous at it.

Shithouse nomination and even shitter voting. So many great songs to vote for and people pick that dross?!? :rolleyes:

Do people actually LISTEN to Garbage with their ears open and hear how bad they are?

They represent everything that was bad about 90s music

I can only assume with this attitude that you are only happy when it rains?

5 Singing in the rain - 7th- Gene Kelly raskolnikov

I was so close to nominating it (and expected por_please_ya to, but she didn't even consider it ). A classic , and he has such a rich voice . Perfect for the theme . Was always going to get 5 from me . Deserved a podium .


4 Eurythmics - Here comes the rain again roo2macca - 4th - an easy choice for my 4 votes . I don't love the artist , but I liked this song enough to purchase it after the first listen :) . Well done on the moral podium .


3 Albert Hammond - It Never Rains in Southern California I Dont Care (22nd) - I was unfamiliar with this song but the moment I heard it knew it would get votes from me (it was just a matter of how many).


2 Peter Gabriel - Red Rain NaturalDisaster (21st)- I liked it even more on the second listen :). Should've finished higher


1 Snow Patrol- Crack the shutters CakeEater (27th/ Billy)- so harsh! Deserved more votes and fewer billies


BM- Ulysses - Franz Ferdinand Loonerty (8th) - staggered that this atrocity got so many votes /just 2 billies . Dubious link to the theme too
