I said "At present this would be the only song not on the Spotify playlist, which would be a distinct disadvantage."

Most people think of having the decency to reply.

Well okay, but it really wasn't anymore complicated for me than how I've explained it.
 
I guess the poll needs more than one answer and it’s a tracker as much as anything.

but why does someone ALWAYS come in just so they can say no?
 
The first time it wasn't stated that they had to be spotify, at least not when I sent it (or if it was I completely missed it). The second time I was PM'd to say I could send an entry without a spotify (and I sent it genuinely thinking it did).
As I say, this is all happening before I've actually formalised the rules but I've no qualms with it not being on Spotify as long as you accept the inherent risks to that.
 
Everyone CHILLAX, funky said he pressed the wrong button
 
I'm not going to submit something that isn't on Spotify, which is why I'm so annoyed that my two ideas are not.
 
Not sure if this has been covered elsewhere but is there a language rule, @ButterTart ie do the songs have to be performed in the same language as the original version?
 
I don't know whether to go full on hot mess or something slightly different.

My three options though are all looking 29th with a bullet :(
 
Maybe I'll play for last place and go for Mel C's "I Want Candy"

I don't know whether to go for a cover version of a REALLY well known song, or a cover of an unknown song.
 
Also why isn't @funky playing? I hope he is, and he just used the poll as an excuse to call me fat and tell me to fuck off.

but WHAT an excuse!

I’d just like a bit of steer on whether people tend to go for obscure or for best, because this covers thing has thrown me a bit. I don’t wanna go obscure and everyone is throwing out stuff like Kylie does ABBA. Or the flip reverse of that. If I’m going to bother I’d like to be in with a shout
 
Definitely stay away from the very well-known stuff I would say.

edit: well-known covers that is. as below, the covered song should be fairly familiar to everyone

HOPE THAT HELPS!

On a personal level, I’d like to see less familiar versions of well known songs. This isn’t a rule, just what I envisaged going into this. Of the ones sent in so far, I will say that people haven’t been shy about tackling the classics.
 
I’m thinking the covered song can be well known but the cover itself not otherwise what’s the point?
 
Dagnabbit - the one I wanted is not on Spotify,

As a treat: Nurse With Wound do The Locomotion.

 
There is one on Spotify that I genuinely love but it will score absolutely no points AT ALL.
