Music Cup Round 3 - 'Love' Songs

by Guest Mon 01 Aug 2011, 1:00 pm

Round 3 of the Music Cup folks!

This one's based on songs that have 'love' in the title, they don't have to be a love song (and many aren't!) so there's quite a mix in there!

Here's the choices!

Your Love Alone is Not Enough - Manic Street Preachers
Friday I'm in Love - The Cure
I Believe in a Thing called Love - The Darkness
Love Spreads - The Stone Roses
Love is All Around - Wet Wet Wet
Love is Noise - The Verve
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin
Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen
Love Will Tear Us Apart Again - Joy Division
Where is the Love? - Black Eyed Peas
When Love Takes Over - David Guetta
She Likes (Bittersweet Love) - Forever the Sickest Kids
All We Need is Love - The Beatles
Love the Way you Lie - Eminem
Someone to Love - Queen

As always pick your fave 3 choices!

Hero will sort the scores for the last round when he's back from his hols.

Dammit, I was away for the last two rounds! Forgot to say anything. Laugh

Oh well, hope I'm still allowed to carry on with the next rounds.

i see the black eyed peas are winning...kind of makes a bit of a mockery of the competition.

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Wed 03 Aug 2011, 1:44 pm

Apparantly I scored zero on the last round.

I wasn't even aware I'd entered this time? I certainly haven't made any nominations by PM.

I'm confused...

What did I nominate, and how did I do in the first round?? Laugh

Cant believe i'm getting beat by David Guetta and worse the darkness

by Davie Fri 05 Aug 2011, 8:49 pm

The Dorkness are quite probably THE worse band I've ever seen

I'd never go to see them normally but they were opening act for a Deep Purple/Lynyrd Skynyrd double header I went to see

Never seen an arena show empty quite so quickly (or the bars be so busy)

by **ADMIN** Sun 07 Aug 2011, 11:56 pm

Howdi all!

Scores will be going up in the morning (once I've waded through the pile of work I'm expecting on my return to office).
In the meantime though...

Next Round!!!

Theme for this round is...

Country Music (please read on though!)

It was requested by Dave, but he wasn't specific on what Country Music entailed so... it's not that dirge that Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers come out with but any song where it mentions a country, city or place in the title (nationalities are fine too).

gotta laugh at Demon and Crimey Laugh

Usually those places are reserved for me!

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:23 am

To be fair I've never actually nominated a song because I hadn't chosen to take part - so I have no idea how many rounds I've taken part in, or what songs I've been allocated.

I'm guessing I've got "You're love alone..." in this round - but I'm not sure.

I have nominated for the next round.

by Guest Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:28 am

pm for Hero

by **Enforcer** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:31 am

Your Love Alone was me Demon, I'm impressed you've got 5 points without ever choosing a song!

by Adam D Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:33 am

the ironic thing is he is doing better this time that last when he did pick!

Wow - I'm really confused.

What song did I have Hero?

by **Enforcer** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:36 am

Did you pick in Round 1 Demon and forget about it?

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:38 am

I didn't pick in round 1 - definitely.

I mentioned that I would pick "Faster" in round 2 when discussing the theme - and that was entered for me.
But that scored zero.

So I must have had something in this round

by Guest Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:44 am

I had The Black Eyed Peas in this round.

by **Enforcer** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:55 am

Shocking choice YI, can't believe it scored the same as the Manics and Joy Division!

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:56 am

Undoubtedly the right song won.

by Adam D Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:57 am

I love how 2 songs which did better than mine, didnt even have the right title!

"All YOU need is Love" and "someBODY to Love"

by **ADMIN** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 9:58 am

The 5 points were for Faster, even though it came last I'm doing the scores out of 20 and working in reverse (as I expected 20 applicants).

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:01 am

5 points for no votes?!?

That's pure profit

by **Enforcer** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:01 am

Demon, you're right if I had thought of that it would have been my first choice! Who had it out of interest?

by Davie Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:03 am

The Queen one was mine and it was spelled correctly when I sent it in Wink

That was my first choice song before having an 11th hour thought about going for something the kiddiewinkles would like. Bad move!

by **Crimey** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:33 am

I have missed two of the rounds because I went on holiday forgetting about this.

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:41 am

I think Leaky and I should have the 5 pts for coming bottom in the rounds we didn't vote in.

And I should get 2 points for suggesting it

by Dave. Mon 08 Aug 2011, 6:07 pm

I hope you all stick to the manner in which I requested.

by **Enforcer** Mon 08 Aug 2011, 7:05 pm

No chance Dave, I want to do well Laugh

How dare! you, sir? How utterly goddamn double-dare you besmirch Ms Parton? A goddess, sir. A veritable goddess.

And the creator of "I will always love you", a story of platonic love, her original version of which would have won (WON!) this piffling little quizette had you the balls to include it. Balls!

I remain, sir, your humble servant.

by Adam D Mon 08 Aug 2011, 8:00 pm

The Gambler by Kenny Rogers is awesome too for the record.

You gotta know when to hold them, know when to fold them.

by Dave. Mon 08 Aug 2011, 8:17 pm

Spoiler:

by Beer Mon 08 Aug 2011, 10:55 pm

I can't believe my Beatles track got 9 votes!

by **ADMIN** Tue 09 Aug 2011, 3:28 pm

Still waiting on a few peoples choices for the next round, hurry up folks!

If you had done what I asked for you would have got them by now, so there.

by **ADMIN** Tue 09 Aug 2011, 8:07 pm

You asked for Country songs!
There's plenty of songs involving countries, I thought you'd be happy! Laugh

by AberdeenSteve Tue 09 Aug 2011, 8:10 pm

I am doing terrible Crying or Very sad
