Don't rewrite the books, just rewrite the title.

 

[Kate]

God I love My Life Story. I might buy a ticket for that New Cross gig after all. Ugh New Cross.

 

[Kate]

I have seen them a billion times of course.

 

[dmlaw]

"She had the world revolving right round her skirts."

This quality of lyrics in an album track.

 

[dmlaw]

OK, we're really finished now.

Go to bed.

 

[Kate]

NO! THIS NEXT!

 

[Kate]

Oh that is poor audio quality.

 

[dmlaw]

Idiots, those other forum people.

 

[Kate]

I didn't enjoy that album as much because they lost all the orchestral shiz, but that song and It's a Girl Thing are bangers.

 

[dmlaw]

In retrospect, that would have been perfect for the Anti-Valentines round.

 

[ButterTart]

Well, this has been a massive success and I have so many keepers/rediscovered smashers from it. I must go to bed now though otherwise I'll probably die.

 

[RJN]

Thank you @dmlaw! I’m very excited for tomorrow

 

[COB]

Thank you @dmlaw!

 

[Raining on Me]

Sad to miss this!

I nearly sent Gorecki too but didn't for the same reasons as @ButterTart. Which is also why I withdrew Clare Maguire - one of my favourite songs that I actually submitted to @dmlaw and changed at the final hour.

But I was all set to go with Le Youth's "Cool" until I thought of Clare, and then Gabriella Cilmi's mould-encrusted skeletal hand reached up from her neglected grave, and I pulled her out so she could continue her mission. She kept repeating "I'll never give up, I'll never give up," which explains why the body hadn't disintegrated.

 

[Raining on Me]

Poor Bjork That's imperial era stuff and you were all so awful.

She only became rotten after Vespertine, kind of

I feel like you were on to a winner with any of the songs you picked from that lot, in fairness.

 

[Suomi]

So much talk about music when actually I feel the heart of this particular competition is

 

[Rita]

There’s something so moreish about Let’s Get Back To Bed Boy, I bought it! A good choice @Rita

I never thought I would hear those words coming from the tips of your fingers.

 

[Rita]

And a point for Suomi.

I'm kidding. There are no points. But it was Rita.

Where is @Rita?

Sorry darling, I had a visitor. I will catch up at some point.

More dick than points, that one.

 

[Rita]

For god's sake @Rita, that would have done SO MUCH BETTER




WTF?

My music taste isn’t actually as bad as these competitions would lead you to believe. I am just really bad at picking the right one from a shortlist. I usually pay people to do this kind of shit for me.

 

[Suomi]

Rita you are such an iconic player that often the real ASFM game is guessing your entry

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Our very own San Marino
