Song Contest Part XXI, Host: Purple7x08_24, Theme: Pre-2000, Votes Due: Wednesday 10pm AEDT Time

[MWPP]

General Rules:
All song nominations and votes are done by PM and must be kept anonymous by the host.
You only nom one song.
The host's decision on accepting songs is final, whinging will just make you look like a loser.
Voting must be on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis with a single Billy Madison vote for the worst song.
In the event of a tie the song with the least Billy Madison votes will win on countback. If still tied, the song with the most 5 votes will be given the victory.
The Billy Madison winner must use an avatar chosen by the host for the duration of the next round (unless they have lost an avatar bet, in which case the Billy avatar must be used until the next round has concluded).
If you set a midday or midnight deadline, don't be surprised if I mess around with the timezone.
People who did not submit a nom are not allowed to vote
In the event that the winner cannot host, then the reigns go to 2nd place, unless that person is William Wonka.
If TubbsFarquhar wins, the hosting gig goes straight to 2nd place

Funnily enough if this round was a day later I would have had to nom The Strokes. Bought their back catalogue on vinyl last night bar Angles which I already had.

Noticed some songs from ypur last rounds theme.

ArdentEagle depends on the song. I'm happy to give this one 5 but think I'm going to give it 3 or 4 because I like the other two bit better.

Lot of billy bait personally. Holly is safe

What songs are billy bait? I didn't think any was billy "worthy" so probably going with a technicality.

Ww must hear differently because at least 3 songs I did not like at all.



I've finalised my votes and went the way I expected.

That Steve Winwood cover of Eric Prydz is kinda catchy.

You can't bring that up without posting the clip.

Call me old fashioned but I also prefer the Benny Benassi Satisfaction to the Rolling Stones version.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

I also prefer the Benny Benassi original Satisfaction to the Rolling Stones cover version.

For many years, I thought for sure that the male robot voice was provided by Stephen Hawking.

"Who stole my second E-string"?
Look where he's strumming - 5 strings! Shambles.

Haha, the new Copilot won't let me use celeb names so I had to influence it through prompts but as close as I could get to Andrew Hozier Byrne and Hannah Reid

These are probably my favorite 5 artists that I love. Had it not been for the SC, I would have never heard of them.

HM's Boy Harsher, Le Matos, Grown on Hozier, Kamazi Washington, Alcest and London Grammar, Tim Buckley.


Artists I've discovered and brought into the comp (Had it not been for the comp I would never have found them):

Dark Tranquility, Rotting Christ, Gorija, Mari Samuelsen, Pilot Speed, Bloodred Hourglass, Hollow Coves, Polaris, Worakls, Amy McDonald, Trey & Lexi Pendley.


Artists I've really grown fond of but with respect to their lesser known stuff

Nick Cave
Bee Gees
Beach Boys
OMD
The Church
Blue Oyster Cult
Violent Soho

Spudmaster, If I was going to add to my record collection from the current playlist artists, here are the albums I would buy. Not just for the song on the playlist. Personally I thought HH was nice on the second play but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy her albums. I'd buy for the album art, and the album as a whole. Unfortunately I've only ever seen Miles Davis, and GNR at the record store.

And this is why dance video clips will remain the worst, up there with most rnb videos. I loved dance music and as a young woman/teen I was like WTF is this s**t.... it's like they only wanted EDM to be enjoyed by men Rather alienating lol.

It's not quite the same
I also don't tend to watch the videos when I listen because I'm at work. Peter's abs were wasted!

Well that explains why it missed your votes! I thought if nothing else I'd get votes from yourself and MWPP, even if it was on mute
