Billy: Instant Karma. I love the John Lennon original and have nommed it before but this was deplorable.

The original is some of Lennon's finest work. His best solo IMO anyway.

 

[Ulahoopski]

Probably best, I’d assume the ice down there wouldn’t be fit for consumption as it would be too salty

Yes.
Salty ice.
Yes.
Okay.
Um, good effort?

 

[_Rake_]

Don't be...

He also gave them to Hoos.

 

[Marklar_33]

The next theme I had in mind was a "Not Quite Free For All". You can nom whatever but:

a) The band/artist in question can not have been nommed more than 5 times
b) No previous winners

That seems like a lot of work

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

For those playing at home, Blue Sky Mine does not make my OFFICIAL Midnight Oil Top 50 list.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Don't be...

He also gave them to Hoos.

The OFFICIAL Oils Top 50 cannot be corrupted.

 

[Back One Out]

Ok, I’m open to ideas

This is possibly why there was a one band round. All the ideas are taken

No, they're not

We've never done songs that begin with the letter 'M'

 

[Marklar_33]

Yes.
Salty ice.
Yes.
Okay.
Um, good effort?

What do I look like, a scientist?

[The Speaker]

But it makes my OFFICIAL Midnight Oil Top 50 list at number one, so you're all ok.

 

[SM]

Sheffield Indie Rock Groups of the 00s.

 

[Marklar_33]

No, they're not

We've never done songs that begin with the letter 'M'

Have we done ‘Z’?

 

[The Speaker]

Ok, I’m open to ideas

This is possibly why there was a one band round. All the ideas are taken

I have a bunch of actual ideas, but I'm not sharing

 

[ChappyUK]

That’s not the theme, sorry

Wife said to me has there been a theme where the song must contain someone’s full name being mentioned in the lyrics. Has there?

I have a nom for this

 

[Plugger35]

So the most well known, most played songs were the most popular. Who'd a guessed? When I go to Antarctica Imma bring me own ice!

I actually considered nomming that.

 

[NinjaSwan]

I don't see what's wrong with reduxing old themes, say those that are from like rounds 180 and earlier, these are so far back that hardly anyone here would've even participated and the old noms used to be way more uninspired than what would be nommed now.

 

[GreyCrow]

I have a nom for this

Eleanor Rigby has been nommed

 

[Marklar_33]

I have a bunch of actual ideas, but I'm not sharing

And I went to the effort of partaking in your bullshit round...

 

[The Speaker]

And I went to the effort of partaking in your bullshit round...

Shouldn't have taken my song then

 

[NinjaSwan]

In saying that my preference for this round would be 'Songs you're afraid would get Billied'.

 

[_Rake_]

Sheffield Indie Rock Groups of the 00s.

Including Hull?

Need some Paddingtons work.

 

[Marklar_33]

Song Titles beginning with M it is

Noms due loosely 9pm AEDT Thursday. No guarantees they’ll be posted then

I’ll answer probably zero PMs tonight as I’m tired

 

[Ulahoopski]

And I went to the effort of partaking in your bullshit round...

Probably should stay away from bullshit - my scientist told me it's way salty dude.
