Valentine's Day ~ Put a Little Love in Your Heart Tournament!!!

Tools    





Last tournament Topsy called a song a classic, and it was a song I thought of as new.
Bless her, I blame it on too much Cheryl, Shakira & Britney - turns the brain to mush ya know .... needs a more balanced diet imo



Round 1, Day 3



Kenny Rogers - Through the Years vs. Jackie Wilson - Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher and Higher I liked the Kenny Rogers song too, but this one's Jackie's

The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony vs. 10cc - The Things We Do For Love 10cc was one of me and Mr H's favourite bands

The Monkees ~ Sometime in the Morning vs. Yves Montand - C'est Si Bon absolutely no contest. Yves and his sexy voice
Britney Spears - and Then We Kiss vs. Imperial Leisure - The Landlord's Daughter I quite like the Britney song, but the second one is much more up my street. Any mention of boozers and I'm listening...

Exile - Woke Up In Love vs. Magic Man - Paris

Mama Im Coming Home - Ozzy vs. Bon Jovi ~ You Give Love a Bad Name both ok

Byonce - Haunted vs. Gary Barlow - Forever Love neither song impressed, but gone with Gary cos I dunno, I always feel a bit sorry for him

The Temper Trap - Love Lost vs. Harry Nilsson-Without You Favourite of mine for reasons above



It always hurts my soul to vote for trailer park Spears, but I liked her song much more in this case.
please,we all know you dont have a soul!

Britney is my favorite



OK, mojo was on an hour ago, but I don't see his votes, so I PMed him. I'm not sure if I've already done that. I've been a bit lost in la la land for the past day or so. Sorry!!! Bad meds. Taking no more of them. I will figure out what to do with catching this up tonight. I don't want to tie~break with someone else, but this is sort of dragging on too long. I'll be back . . . Free from muscle relaxers.



Listening now, but Lisa I'm surprised you've not heard Angels before. It's very popular over here as a wedding song . I thought it was a worldwide hit that one. Also Topsy not knowing Without You was originally done by a man...that makes me feel very old!
Newsflash honey: we are
He's right . . . We are, but that song is actually new to me. It's so beautiful. I most definitely saved it.



Round 1, Day 3

Kenny Rogers - Through the Years vs. Jackie Wilson - Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher and Higher

The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony vs. 10cc - The Things We Do For Love
I agree with Topsy, maybe I didn't choose the right one for this tournament.

The Monkees ~ Sometime in the Morning vs. Yves Montand - C'est Si Bon
I really liked the vocalist's voice

Britney Spears - and Then We Kiss vs. Imperial Leisure - The Landlord's Daughter
The hardest choice yet! I really liked both of them. I also changed my mind a couple times

Exile - Woke Up In Love vs. Magic Man - Paris

Mama Im Coming Home - Ozzy vs. Bon Jovi ~ You Give Love a Bad Name
I'm a big Bon Jovi fun myselft

Byonce - Haunted vs. Gary Barlow - Forever Love

The Temper Trap - Love Lost vs. Harry Nilsson-Without You



I feel weird not writing something below all of them but I just don't know what to write . I also have, every time I post, this weird feeling I'm forgeting to bold a winner in one of them

Don't feel weird about it - some people never write anything about their decisions in these, some people do nearly all the time ... it's completely up to the individual. I used to worry that I always tended to highlight the negative rather than the positive and stopped commenting most of the time because of that but now comment if I feel like it.

p.s. Glad you liked the IL song - really didn't expect anyone except perhaps christine to enjoy that one!



Well, I did PM MoJo before his last visit, so I have no idea why he didn't vote. If he still hasn't replied by the time I come back, I'll let Tongo get these. That way, we can get this back on track today. I'm sorry. I didn't expect something like this.

I will post the winners right before I do the next set, later on tonight. I have a review to get posted first, in the 40's thread. Life is working my ass off right now, so I must get for a bit . . .
I can't seem to find the winner's post for day 1. I can't believe I missed that. I was about to post the winners for day 2. Fixing now, damnittohell . . .

* OK, Ned didn't vote on that, and I just wanted to get these caught up. I took a vote by my family, and not a soul voted for John & Iris. If anyone is mad over that, let me know, and I'll get Tongo to vote on it when he's on next.
