All About Him Song Tournament

Sorry about that, I've been making sure not to see who nominated what, although it starts to become clear at the end.

Mine are usually pretty obvious that they're my nominations, even if we did private nominations. Nobody on this forum has the same musical taste as me.

I'm not saying that you voted against my noms intentionally. I'm just saying that we have very different tastes in music, so even with your feelings that the songs should match the theme, you still hate my songs.

Congrats Destiny; that song is a great one that deserves a tournament win!

Same to you Mojo; even though I don't love Smooth Operator, it's certainly a nice song and a great nomination. And as always, thanks for hosting!

Congratulations Ðèstîñy. You picked a bunch of great songs for this tournament, including a great winning song.

Thank You to Mojo for running another great tournament. And Congratulations for picking the Runner-up song too.

Also, Thank You to Sexy Celebrity for doing a great job filling in for Mojo a few times, and for finishing the tournament for him.

For my next one, I want to host an 80's Song Tournament.
The 80's is by far my favorite decade in music and movies.
I'm aware there's already an 80's Song Tournament, so this one will be called "Another 80's Song Tournament"
I'm also interested in doing a sequel to the Movie Clip Song Tournament. I'll call it the "Movie Clip Song Tournament Part II"
Anybody onboard?

I like the idea of another Movie Clip Song Tournament because I thought that one was fun, but we hear so many 80's songs in normal tournaments that it's just going to be another tournament of all the same songs that we hear over and over again.

I'd like to try some more theme tournaments that kind of force people to find songs that haven't been in these tournaments before. I don't have anything specific in mind. I'm just getting tired of the same songs being nominated over and over again.

Agree with GB, but I'll be in either way I'm sure.

I didn't see any of this. Sorry about that, and thanks!

I'm sort of lost on this movie clip deal.

I agree about the 80's songs.

I also agree here. That's why I did that one thread. I have two ideas so far. I'm just having trouble naming the second theme. I know what sort of songs I want them to be, though.

How about Songs Nobody Has Ever Listened To Tournament?

Believe it or not, I could do this. I dated a guy once that could play every instrument, he sang, and he wrote the music for his band. He had the equipment in his place for recording songs, too. He wrote a song for me, that was about me, and I still have it somewhere around here. I also used to date a Canadian that belonged to a DJ Mix message board. I saved numerous mixes from that site to CD. The site is gone, but I still have the music. Unfortunately, I'd be doing this tournament all by myself, so I think I'll stick with the motivational music.
