Nuts Music Comp - Day11

Welcome to todays three selections and a big thank you as always to the person that sent them in.

What do you think about these three songs then?







Enjoy (and mark!).

5 really liked this one, never heard it before
2 started ok, quite quirky but then just became a dirge
1 didn't even start ok, just a dirge from the off

2 - 1 - 0

Sorry, not my thing at all.

The songs don't really do anything for me and it's all a bit pop wallpaper with obvious progressions. Like Sarah McLachlan's voice but she needs better material IMO.
And I know Gabriel can do better.
2 - 1 - 2

1-1-1

I really do despair.

No.

1-1-1

4 - love the Sundays, wish they'd come back with some new music

Enough said.

So not just you then 

My score for this selection is:

1
3
2

I love The Sundays but that wasn't one of their better tracks in my book.
The Peter Gabriel track was ok.

3-3-2.

I like Peter Gabriel so it's a 3.

Wasn't overkeen on the Sundays track and I agree with Hip Priest so it's a 2.

Sarah MacLachlan was okay(ish ) so it's a 2.

On re-reading this thread I have only just connected the 2nd track with The Sundays. Somehow, I hadn't made the connection that it was the same band. They wrote some great tunes and I loved the Reading, Writing, Arithmetic album at the time. I'm not sure this song represents them well at all.

We've got Okocha to thank for this belated round 1 entry and the bloke took a bit of a hammering - poor chap!

If I've done my sums correctly,  11 people cast 63  points for an average of 5.73  - which actually puts you towards the bottom of that round - but who cares eh - it's what you like is what counts!

I will need another 3 links from you for this round when you have a moment please.

I think you might have had a hard time getting your links to me if the amount of pm's you sent to me was anything to judge by, so what I suggest, what you only need to do is google the video you want to select on You Tube and start playing it.

When it is playing look at the address of the link in your address bar (the bit that should be saying something like  http: // forum.boltonnuts... - if you are reading this now - towards the top of your computer - and copy it).

Open in a second screen a pm to me and in the bit where you type the text, just click on it.

Then in the little icons above where you type you will see one in white and red for You Tube - click on it.

A box will open which asks for the address the http:// thingimy bit - click on the box and paste in the address you coped THEN press INSERT.

A bit of text will then appear on your screen.

Click the 'Preview' box and if you've done it right, your video should appear!

Simply go back to the text box again and repeat for your other two links - then post me the three completed videos in one pm (instead of seven!).

It probably does sound a bit complicated - but it is not.

All I have to do once you send me the videos is the click the quote button - as if I was going to reply to you - and copy the links - then simply paste them as your submission in the competition - easy peasy for us all then.

Please don't think I'm being huffity or anything, this is just me trying to be helpful to you - and anyone else having problems.

Finally anyone else who as yet to submit entry's for the fist round - and there are one or two notable omissions so far - please do so as we would love to hear your taste in music too!

Chin up Okocha - better luck this round!
