A Song for Moopy: Undercover - VOTE NOW (Closes Thursday 8th October 6pm)

[ButterTart]

Sadly not

As long as an accidental number two didn’t slip out.

 

[Raining on Me]

I really love my song now (I made myself like it) and can't wait to share the delights of said artist with moopy in a forgotten post promoting their other other, "real" videos. My castle is built and my defence archers are ready to counter the unflattering attacks. I at least feel like I've entered something that did something different with the cover. Sort of. Quality control may be in the gutter but the gutsy willingness is there.

I really like your song.
Or do I?
Did you even enter a song?

Fucking impartiality is getting right on my tits.

I'm on my second playthrough of part 2. It's actually going to be harder than usual to chop these down to 15

Even Indie was (vaguely) complimentary about the songs.
I think the benefit of covers is, even if you don’t like them, you can at least appreciate when they’ve really changed them up.

 

[Kate]

Indeed!

Sorry FIERCELY HETEROSEXUAL NEWTON though, you are not making the cut.

 

[Generic Account]

will listen to episode 2 fully this weekend and make some decisions.

 

[ButterTart]

You know he used to be a FIREMAN? He’s a hero!

 

[Kate]

OK well that makes him about 20% more attractive, but still not a lot.

I do chuckle at the gormless close up of his face a couple of seconds in to the video.

 

[Lucille]

I’m having a second run through now in an attempt to CALM MYSELF DOWN.

 

[Lucille]

Well AMANDA PALMER certainly CHEERED ME UP.

 

[Lucille]

Getting adverts for the “Sleep Meditations for Women” podcast.

 

[Lucille]

The Shola Ama song would be a fab bond theme.

 

[Kala]

That T-Shirt song is going round my head constantly at the moment. Absolute TOSH but exactly the kind of thing I listened to back in 1998, (and I did) - would I have been so BLATANT to send something like that though?

 

[Lucille]

I’ve decided who’s getting TOP MARKS. Now to somehow order the other 14.

 

[Devil]

I’m finally getting to listen to these.

Who had the NERVE to send Holly Valance

 

[dUb]

I can only assume it was an enthusiastic ingénue who didn’t quite grasp the purpose of the event and I want to give them a hug

 

[Devil]

Oh I love Sometimes When We Touch, but I prefer the tacky Rimini Project Cover.

I’m actually quite liking some of these!

 

[Lucille]

I have a shortlist of 18

 

[Lucille]

I feel like there’s a very clear TOP 7 or 8 here which are leagues ahead of the rest.

 

[Lucille]

VOTES NEARLY READY!

This is in no way intended to give any clues about the sender, but out of curiosity was it ACTUALLY that big of a song outside the UK? Does she have any name value at all outside of here and Australia?

Fuck me this is exciting!

 

[Devil]

That’s possibly fair, I assume it was only huge in Aus, UK and NZ.

Actually, no. A quick wiki shows it went top twenty in a lot of European nations.

Oh

Still, it IS a banger and there’s absolutely nothing in the rules to say it CAN’T be a hit song.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I don't think anyone is suggesting it's against the rules.

Just a massive tactical blunder.

can I fb you my video of my country reveal BT or do you want via a website?

I mean no disrespect but how fucking dare you, you bastard? Holly's starring role in cinematic* smash hit DOA: Dead or Alive garnered her INTERNATIONAL ACCLAIM so to suggest her music wasn't similarly popular is beyond the pale.

*(may not have actually been released in cinemas)

 

[Lucille]

VOTED.

@COB really hasn't been this upset since @ZenGiraffe joined Moopy

I note with interest you didn’t mention her star making role in underground smash Taken. Also I love DOA, it’s probably my favourite video game movie.

 

[ButterTart]

Also we’re now on FOUR votes. It’s all getting quite tasty at the top of the chart, I can tell you.

 

[Devil]

The Promise is really something else

 

[Diddy]

I’m hoping to do at least one round tomorrow

I must say I’m a bit surprised to see some actual famous covers being entered though, not sure what to do with them

 

[ButterTart]

We’ve broken the seal with the votes now, hoping for a couple more today.

 

[Lucille]

All these covers were new to me except sad old Holly.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

VOTED!

 

[Devil]

Even ropey old (young) Ingrosso is doing it for me.

Well done Moopy.

 

[Kala]

I don't give a fuck if the song is known or not. Kiss Kiss is a fucking banger and it is getting points from me!
