Showdown Song Tournament: Battle of the Female Solo Artists

That's a good one. I won't be using Hit Me With Your Best Shot...well I have some time to think of which 8 I'll use. BTW I seen Pat Benatar in a smaller venue in Seattle in 1980 or 1981, I can't remember the details...ha!

at a small venue? During those years?

I hate you

wow .. I'm taken, good stuff

You have just cheered me up and justified her nomination no matter what happens so I thank you for that

My nom is Sarah Jarosz. I nominated one of her songs once, and have followed her since. Hope you like her, her songs might get lost amongst some of the big guns nominated but they're worth a second listen in all their pure gentleness

Sarah Jarosz - Build me up from Bones
Sarah Jarosz - Run Away
Sarah Jarosz - House of Mercy
Sarah Jarosz - Tell Me True
Sarah Jarosz - Take Me Back
Sarah Jarosz - Mile on the Moon
Sarah Jarosz - Little Song
Sarah Jarosz - Green Lights

I do like her songs and her too. In case she wins this tourney perhaps we can send her a link to the thread

Heh I bet she'd love that! It's strange but every time I start getting into someone's music, I look up their tours and they'll have been in my city in the last few months so I've missed them

Have you thought about maybe looking at the upcoming tours first and then basing some of your musical explorations around that .... please don't shoot the messenger, 'tis just a crazy off-the-wall type idea that I've given absolutely no thought to any potential pitfalls

My nominations:


Escapade - Janet Jackson
Miss You Much - Janet Jackson
Let's Wait Awhile - Janet Jackson
Alright - Janet Jackson
Because of Love - Janet Jackson
Nasty - Janet Jackson
What Have You Done For Me Lately - Janet Jackson
Love Will Never Do Without You - Janet Jackson

@christine - I've had another thunk ..... I'm sure if you contacted the promoters of the gigs you missed and used your charms they'd still let you buy tickets to them

#noproblemtoosimple

My nominations:

Le Bel Age

In the Heat of the Night

I'm Gonna Follow You

Fire and Ice

You Better Run

Promises in the Dark

We Belong

If You Think You Know How To Love Me

I like this idea more than your other one. Trust you to come up with such a radical solution. I'll investigate

@Nestorio_Miklos, @mojofilter


These two links don't work.

The first one is just an HTML code problem, and this should be the corrected link:
Tracy Chapman - Fast Car


The second link has the message "This video contains content from NBC Universal, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds. Sorry about that.".

I noticed that the title on the YouTube page was "Tracy Chapman Mountain O' Things Saturday Night Live 11 88", so I tried to match to a similar live link. Is this link okay as an alternate link, or do you have a different alternate link?

Tracy Chapman - Mountain O' Things

NOMINATIONS are CLOSED!

BATTLE ONE will be up shortly!!!
