February - A Song Tournament For Music Lovers

Tools    





Society ennobler, last seen in Medici's Florence
Whoever nominated it, I'm glad to see Zaz in this tourney. We fully follow her, seen her live twice. This is one of her top tunes, I put it immediately after the grand classic Milkman's Son.
Flamin Groovies and their Roadhouse was a nice discovery for me here, very good song.

Sorry crumbs, afraid this one is ineligible as it has won a round and reached a Final before (finished 3rd in May 2021) so you'll need to nominate something else.



After spending many hours toiling to find a favourite Rolling Stone song of mine that I didn't think anyone particularly liked and could never possibly win (but somehow already did!), I've instead had to go for broke and find a Beatles song that I similarly doubt has any chance of winning (because winning is no fun at all)


The Beatles - It's All Too Much
