To do this properly I suppose I should download all the songs and then listen to each in turn, before finally deciding which is, in fact, the best.

What I will actually do though is vote for my own.

Unnecessarily harsh from all three of you gentlemen. Hang your heads in shame Messers. Tino, Rowley and Julius. Can't you see that he's desperately seeking help and trying to relate to someone?

There are certain things that are over the line Shah, my dearly beloved Dusty just happens to be one of them.

I have no idea if I got my top choice and all three of my nominations are there.

On the basis that it looks like the list is in the same order as was randomly generated, I assumed I didn't get my top choice and, as such, voted for it. Apologies all round if I did get my top choice and have just rigged the vote.

Unless I PM'd you, then you got your 1st pick.

Also the list is completely different from the list of posters. I deliberately randomize it to stop them being the same.

How f*cking dare you, Beadle.

Apologies for denigrating your administrative prowess. It just seemed like the list got progressively worse the further down you went (a couple of notable exceptions notwithstanding), so I assumed it was in the order selected.

In which case I've just voted for myself. Happy to revert to my second choice if you are able to change the numbers. Let me know and I'll PM you.

Can DAVE change his nomination to JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS?

by The Womble Thu May 14, 2015 2:29 pm

Voted for Dusty Springfield as she is one of the all time greats, however 'You Don't Have To Say You Love Me' is a better song than 'Son Of A Preacher Man'.

A lot of the songs up there are utter guff.

by **seanmichaels** Thu May 14, 2015 2:32 pm

Ha! I'm getting mixed up between Dusy Springfield and Smokey Robinson.

You can cancel and re-enter your vote. But I wouldn't bother, ~~Adam~~ some people have clearly voted for themselves already.

You can have a free pass this round for having the best username.

Surprised Bam Bam by Sister Nancy hasn't got a vote.

It's a wonderful song.

I'm shocked too, Tino. Almost as shocked as I was when I found out that Hanson were boys.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu May 14, 2015 2:46 pm

Now that I didn't need to check the rules, would Stevie Nicks counted as solo? I'm too young to know if she was a solo artist really or just the face of a band.

by Rowley Thu May 14, 2015 2:47 pm

She had a solo career, if you pick a song from that career it counts, pick a Fleetwood Mac song it doesn't.

Someone tried to pick a Nicks song that was clearly when she was singing with Fleetwood Mac. I slapped him down.

Just like I will slap you down next time I see you.

What an idiot! That would be like picking a Patti Smith song that was clearly when she was singing with the Patti Smith Group.

It's just one revelation after another. Makes me glad I resisted the urge to be an obscurist bell end and didn't pick a Chris Clark song.

by Trebs Thu May 14, 2015 2:57 pm

I have screwed up big time. Panicked under pressure and my three choices were what can on shuffle going to work this morning.

He is an arrogant piece of work that man. Arrogant.

Yes, it's a solo song Ziggles. Track 6 on the 1981 solo debut LP Bella Donna. Be grateful you didn't nominate it as there are least 5 other tracks on that LP alone that are better.

Well shame on me for not knowing the recording details on every f*cking song recorded in the history of recorded music.
