Music Cup Round 6 - Cigarettes & Alcohol (PICK 3!!)
Music Cup 2015 Round 6: Cigarettes & Alcohol
Results from Round 5!
Head and Bush come first!
Yes in the battle of Body Parts the melancholic Radiohead managed to hang onto the coat-tails of my inspired last minute choice of Kate 'au natural' Bush's Wuthering Heights. Samo gains 10 points to put him into the mix as we enter the later rounds.
A plethora of runner-ups then with the top two of Compelling & Dick_Ragless both scoring strongly with Arctics Monkeys (most overrated band of the past 20 years) and the cockrock ballad by Cutting Crew, air guitars at the ready Wrasslin fans. Davie's Fat Bottomed Girls and Superfly's choice of Dolphin's fave quiff haired Mancunian fill out the runner up spots.
Tino and Adam both score 4 points with Reef and Meatloaf but is that enough to keep them near the top come the closing rounds? Julius's pick of REM's Everybody Hurts has us reaching for the razorblades to selfharm, CJB's pick of Streets has Rowley reaching for a baseball bat to inflict it.
Oh and Galted had 1 person vote for Up your Bum. Well done sir.
So the scores are...
Next round will be...Countries & Cities, songs or Artists that contain either the name of a Country or City! PM me the usual!

My pick is by some distance the best song up there. It will be heartbreaking to see it squashed by Champagne Supernova which, by any standard, is a dreadful song.

Why are some of these songs the same as the ones in previous rounds? Shoerly you shouldnt be allowed repeats? Both Thin Lizzy and Oasis have previously featured

Not sure which of my choices I got as all 3 are up there.
Will hold off from my voting until I know to maintain the integrity of the competition.

Unlike the Culture Cup and Culture 2.0 which were founded on integrity and respect.

There is a lot Hero could learn about running a successful V2 tournament.

Re: Music Cup 2015 Round 6: Cigarettes & Alcohol
Voted for the 3 best songs up there, Pulp, Oasis and Clapton.
There is nothing wrong with Oasis, they are one of the best and most influential bands this country has produced. People only say they don't like them because they think it's cool to not like them. Fact is, Noel Gallagher wrote some absolute classics that are far better than some of the cack that gets nominated on these polls.

Yep, I say that because I really care whether a bunch of strangers I will never meet think I'm cool.
I just don't like them because they were (and still are) a bag of sh*te. Monobrowed, parka wearing bags of sh*te.
I like you Womble, but you need to boil your head you cretin.

Stick a pair of Hi-tecs on and you've described Galted on a Saturday night.

Sorry - Selections submitted now.
Voted for Pulp, Velvet Underground and Grandmaster Flash. All great songs and considerably better than my selection which has understandably received a Bronx cheer.

I think all songs already picked deserve at least a 4 point penalty.
