I really would advise before you vote to click on the links. Some great choices.

by Davie Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:00 pm

Wow - could be some interesting choices here - particularly over what exactly constitutes "acoustic". Should be fun though!

I'll have to wait until this evening before I get access to YouTube to provide links, though I think I know what my choice will be already

by Guest Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:09 pm

PM'd mine over, but agree with Davie on what constitues 'acoustic', i would say my choice is borderline.

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:12 pm

Sent mine.

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:17 pm

I would define 'acoustic' as MTV unplugged, anything that doesn't involve electric or electronic means.

by Guest Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:28 pm

by **ADMIN** Wed Mar 16, 2011 9:16 am

Come on guys (and ladies!), get your votes in.

by Dexter Morgan Wed Mar 16, 2011 9:31 am

easy choice, my all time favourite Incubus track is Drive!

by Legend Thu Mar 17, 2011 4:42 am

I've just realised how bad the video is for the one I chose, compared to the album version Crying or Very sad

by **ADMIN** Thu Mar 17, 2011 9:43 am

Oh for the love of God will someone take the lead!

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Sat Mar 19, 2011 2:43 am

The winner is going to be a song that was released 2 weeks ago.

The GREATEST acoustic song OF ALL TIME, is a song that some bird who can sing reasonably well sang reasonably well at the BRITS a couple of weeks ago. Rolling Eyes

by Guest Sat Mar 19, 2011 8:06 am

come on guys, get voting. Not long to go for this one!

by Dexter Morgan Sat Mar 19, 2011 8:40 am

by Guest Sat Mar 19, 2011 8:45 am

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon Mar 21, 2011 8:01 am

Best metal track???

Might as well go for Britney Spears - Toxic. Cater for the insane populist vote.

by Dexter Morgan Mon Mar 21, 2011 8:03 am

I'll be dissapointed if no one goes for Tenacious D - The Metal

by Davie Mon Mar 21, 2011 8:12 am

Tenacious D????

Give me the mighty - indeed LEGENDARY - Spinal Tap anytime!

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 8:18 am

fishing for votes prior to the poll going up is not permitted Whistle

by MtotheC's Wrasslin Biatch Mon Mar 21, 2011 8:44 am

Sent mine

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:28 am

I think the Adele track you put as winning is wrong?

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:30 am

Metal is a toughie, so many choices.

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:39 am

Once again several possibilities I was looking at have now gone.

My thrash version of Aqua's Dr Jones will have to romp it home instead then.

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:49 am

i nearly went for barbie girl, but had 2nd thoughts

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:57 am

Just awaiting Hobo's choice and then I get to pick.
Oh and there's a belter still left so be warned when I win again Wink

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:58 am

winning this and winning the tv cup?
FIX ! Whistle

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:02 am

I'm intrigued about this 'belter' I reckon mines in with a shot!

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:06 am

There's actually three that I'm very very surprised no-one has gone for so if Hobo goes for one I've still got a great choice Wink

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:08 am

pull ya finger out Hobo, get it sorted and get this round rocking

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:09 am

Modern or Classics, Hero?

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:11 am

it was just released last week Whistle

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:12 am

Classics, all three.

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:16 am

Lol, YI.

It is strange how people perceive what is a great song. Also I wouldn't class Times like These as acoustic.

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:20 am

With acoustic it was open to 'acoustic' versions such as Times Like These (I'd have gone for Everlong though).

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:21 am

I woudnt either KB, but it was an acoustic version, all be it a remix (so to speak)
But this isnt my style, can we have European Hard Dance as the next round please boss?

by Guest Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:22 am

Ahhh, I would've had 2 separate rounds.

Will there be a covers round?

by **ADMIN** Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:25 am

Yes there will be a covers round.
And there's no chance my fave cover will get past 9 others.

by Fernando Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:52 am

im happy with my choice . i stole it from hero Smile

covers round sounds good
