A tune for June (song tourney)
 
Same as was done in previous tournaments of this type.....
  • Join in and drop out as you please
  • No set number of nominations, nominate on the fly
  • Max song duration: 10 minutes
  • No individual matches means no random or host 'fixing' the matches
  • Only one nomination per person per 'round'
  • Only those with songs nominated in any 'round' are eligible to vote; except the 'Final' where all those that have previously nominated a song in the month may vote should they wish

Every couple of days will be a new 'round' where any and all newly nominated songs are up against each other. As soon as voting starts for one 'round' nominations will be accepted for the next 'round'.

Players vote by ranking all the songs in that 'round' from 1 (their favourite) to n (their least favourite). Songs will be awarded points based on their positional ranking in each vote (number of points will depend on the number of songs contesting the 'round' - if 10 songs #1 song would get 10 points, #10 song would get 1 point).

The winning song from each 'round' (or songs in the case of a tie) goes through to the 'Final' at the end of the month.

Songs that made it to previous 'finals' are ineligible -
list here  


Nominations need to be freely available to all participants, YouTube is most commonly used but any freely available and legal source is acceptable. Sometimes YouTube videos can be geo-blocked so where necessary an alternative link for those who might need it may be required. You can check if/where any YouTube vid has been geo-blocked via this website (link kindly provided by Torgo).

Simples but if any relevant questions just ask.

Re: A tune for June (song tourney)
 
Up plenty early so no excuses not to play if interested, assuming there's enough want to play (minimum reqd is 6 players) ROUND 1 will open for voting at 9 a.m. BST on June 1st - nominations accepted up to that point.

My R1 nom:
Brandy Clark - Girl Next Door

ynwtf 05-24-22 11:13 AM

but but BUT....
It's not even the 2.... eh. oh, alright.

So I'll start with the following nom for an EXCELLENT start to the mernth of Jerrrrrn. I caught this during my current Dragon Ball Super binge. We're just out of the Goku Black saga and this song caught (OMG there's a nice breakdown at around 2:20 in lol, sorry, listening now as I type this) my attention as the end credits were rolling. My version is english dub, and those lyrics are heavily modified for DB references, but this version came up in a search and as far as I can tell have NOTHING to do with the show. That's cool though, cuz rarely is anything more entertaining than watching adorably hyper kids jacked up on methamphetamines and noodle carbs swinging their arms wildly in choreographed squat dances that would send most americans into cardiac arrest.

So. Without further ado, I present to you, my possible anime-themed ...theme (?) for the month of Jerrrrrrrn, "The Yoka Yoka Dance! Yoka yoka dance! Yoka yoka, yoka yoka, yoka-yoka-DANCE!"

"E'dybody c'dap yolrd 'ands!? PA-PA-PAN!"

My Round 2 Nomination:
Lady Gaga - Hold My Hand

Captain Spaulding 06-01-22 11:30 AM

Round 1

1. GZA - Shadowboxin'
2. RZA & Flatbush Zombies - Quentin Tarantino
3. Brandy Clark - Girl Next Door
4. Wet Leg - Chaise Longue
5. Jackson Browne - The Pretender
6. Miley Cyrus - Never Be Me

10. Courtney Barnett - Elevator Operator
11. Batten Showjo Tai - Yoka Yoka Dance
12. Air - Venus
13. Sparklehorse - Gold Day


Pretty good round. "Shadowboxin'" remains my favorite rap song. If RZA is producing a track, you know it's gonna be fire. As a QT fanboy, of course I'm going to love a song that constantly alludes to his filmography. I think I've listened to Brandy Clark before, but must've chosen the wrong tracks. "Girl Next Door" is highly enjoyable; spunky, catchy, nice hook, amusing lyrics. I came close to nominating a Wet Leg song in the last tourney. I like their dry, quirky sense of humor. @ynwtf channeling his inner @resopamenic with "Yoka Yoka Dance," which might've fared a bit better if the song didn't end halfway through the video. I just dusted off my Deep Purple Greatest Hits CD a few days ago; the middle section of "Hard Lovin' Man" is what keeps me from loving it. Impressive live vocal from Miley. I think Courtney Barnett is a clever lyricist, but I just don't care much for her sound. It's fitting that we get a song called "Elevator Operator" 'cuz it felt like we stepped into an elevator during the middle of the round, and unfortunately stepped back into that elevator to end the round. "Venus" and "Gold Day" aren't bad songs, just a little too low energy. "cantbreathe" was perhaps the most interesting song, and one that would likely grow on me with repeated listens.

Billy Dean - Once In A While

ynwtf 06-04-22 11:38 PM

Just in case...
r3nom - Opening track to Bleach, s1:
Orange Range - Asterisk

ynwtf 06-05-22 01:49 AM

  1. Flipper - Ever
  2. The Pillows - Ride on Shooting Star
    I hear this song and I turn all to mush reminiscing on broken hearts (I think we all had our own Haruko Haruhara) and a strange need for an old Vespa Super Sport 180.

  3. The Kentucky Vampires - Daughter Of The Morning Star
    This song reminds me of that track playing with those upside down bats at a rave. You know what I'm referring to?
  4. Johnny Paycheck - Pardon Me (I've Got Someone to Kill)
  5. Crowded House - Kare Kare
  6. The Shins - Simple Song
  7. Silvana Estrada - Te Guardo
  8. Air Supply - Even The Nights Are Better
    WOW, it's been a while since hearing this song. Not sure this was part of the soundtrack, but I keep having visions of Dudley Moore's, Arthur. No, I'm thinking of "Best That You Can Do." wow at the similarities though. Neat.
  9. burnt-feathers - no dream (but the eyes can easily find me in my waking life)
    This has so much potential for me but as it is, it's just texture. I really wanted to hear it evolve. Some kind of contrast, ya know?
  10. Rico Nasty - Rage
  11. Lady Gaga - Hold My Hand
    The only song that didn't really fit its movie soundtrack, IMO. Had I first heard this song in another context, that might not have been as influential to my opinion.
Pretty great line up! Thanks for the shares!!

I swear. Why can't return breaks EVER work here?!

Chypmunk 06-05-22 07:41 AM

@PHOENIX74 - sadly that Scissor Sisters vid won't play here (geo-blocked most likely) ... would this one be acceptable as an alternative link for those of us that might need it?

Same goes for me with your link, but I'm assuming it's correct so at least now everyone has both options 👍 Thanks

Yeah, 'tis from the same channel which I presume is their official one. Just one reason why it's better not to leave making nominations too late (not that Yin ever listens lol).

Really strong round. It says something when one of my favorite Bowie songs of all time comes in fourth. But what can you do. Those other three songs are etched on my soul much deeper.

Well, for that last comment i'm not posting my nom until before i crash tonight. And i'll make sure it only works in the U.S. So there's that.

Clive Dunn's reaction to that song:

EDIT: That was for the "grandma" one, not the other one. Oh well, maybe he reacted to that one in the same way.

Actually I'm tempted to make those my next four nominations now :)

LOL, whoops! What would you call that? An "Arloian slip?"
Fun fact: My son's name is Arlo. :)

ynwtf 06-06-22 03:29 PM

Round 4:
Clive Dunn - Grand Dad, We Love You

My conspiracy theory here is that Chyp must have been that Stranger Things kid there on the far left in the purple button up with shoulder straps at 00:30 in. Otherwise, why be so hung up on Clive Dunn?

>=D

Torgo Guthrie Jr. has a nice ring to it.
