ASFZen (ASFM) - The Songs

[ButterTart]

Now for a bit of diffident floral lesbianism to restore balance to the ASFM-verse.

 

[HalamaK]

I believe some songs are missing from the Spotify playlist.

I believe some songs are missing from the Spotify playlist.

One of them is YouTube only, I believe.

One of them is YouTube only, I believe.

By which I mean 'One of them is coming 26th'

I believe some songs are missing from the Spotify playlist.

BoA is not available in all countries, and that eastenders thing was youtube only

 

[Tisch]

Love this.

I swear I know it but according to last.fm I don't! It's obviously just very nicely familiar.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

23. Graboid

Marta Ren
Worth It



​

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Babe, autotune is a thing. You don't need to merely approximate the notes

 

[dmlaw]

Even taking into account the missing songs, the Spotify playlist looks to be in a slightly different order. Anna Fishy is 7th in the YouTube playlist and 23rd on the Spotify one, for example.

 

[ButterTart]

These last two songs have been very summery; the latter one in particular sounds like it could come from a KFC advert.

 

[Tisch]

Okay well this one is certainly a song

 

[ZenGiraffe]

24. I'm a mouse, duh

Eva Santamaría
Gitana Pura



​

 

[ButterTart]

Hark, is this the obligatory ancient gaybait recorded on a Betamax Potato 2000 I hear?

 

[Tisch]

Ooh the obligatory post-Eurovision entry! @Pingu get in here!

 

[ButterTart]

It's actually quite mindful and demure though

 

[Tisch]

I've always really appreciated crisp live vocals with nary a microphone in sight.

 

[dmlaw]

27 songs is quite a lot for one sitting really. We’ll have to bully some of the people who vote for me into coming back so that we can return to having two shows.

I was torn but I have other plans so one sitting suited me better

 

[ButterTart]

It's going on a bit now to be fair

 

[dmlaw]

I hope you’re not suggesting that this song may have really been performed by Loleatta Holloway.

25. Hellbound: Hellraiser II

Marti Caine
Bitch Is Love



​

 

[Iguana]

Oh it's her?! In Demon I recall she was covered up in a big coat. So glad to see she's since found her confidence.

My winner that never was

 

[ButterTart]

Has anyone ever seen Marti Caine and Rula Lenska in the same room?

 

[dmlaw]

I was torn but I have other plans so one sitting suited me better

Fair enough. The downside for two shows is that people often only show up for their own song so they get even less attention.

Mitzi Gaynor CLEARLY

(Rip )

In ARE HARTS and ARE SOLES

 

[dmlaw]

It is well known that the second place songs are always* better.

*sometimes

 

[Tisch]

What are you saying about all* of us?

*(Me and two straights(?))

 

[ButterTart]

My winner that never was

What even beat that and how does the poster sleep at night after such a brazen daylight robbery?

 

[ButterTart]

I would LOVE to know how and why someone decided NOW was the time to dust this one off and deem it suitable for ASFM.

 

[Tisch]

What even beat that and how does the poster sleep at night after such a brazen daylight robbery?

Without researching I think it was that awful @Kratz

 

[ZenGiraffe]

26. Three Very Spooky Girls

Rick James
Mary Jane (Young Franco Remix)



​

 

[ButterTart]

This Young Franco one sounds a bit @funky

 

[ButterTart]

Without researching I think it was that awful @Kratz

How could he stoop Solo?

 

[Tisch]

The name Marti Cane has uncracked a faint memory in my head of someone doing her for Stars in Your Eyes and mum telling me that Marti can be a woman's name sometimes.

I assume they weren't singing BITCH IS LOVE at 7pm on ITV though

 

[dmlaw]

It was straightorbroken with Helene Fischer. Not exactly our finest hour.

 

[dmlaw]

I guess Rick James turning up means that the ship has not quite sailed for P Diddy at ASFM.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

27. Kim Petras

Kai Bosch
Everything Is Beautiful

The very (and weirdly so) extensive list on Wikipedia suggests there were 0 Marti Caine's on Stars in Their Eyes over the years, but there were 14 Marti Pellow's so there's a fun fact for y'all's next quiz night.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

And that's your lot!

Thank you to those that attended live and I'll post the voting thread either after big brother or tomorrow morning.
