Song Tournament 13

Please Read the Following Instructions Carefully!


This will be a general song tournament. Nominations can be from any genre or decade of music, but must be available on Youtube or a similar site. The only restrictions are that you may not nominate any song that has already been nominated in this tournament and you may not nominate any song that has already won a previous tournament. Songs that have previously been runner ups in tournaments are acceptable, but I discourage you from nominating them.

If you wish to participate in this tournament, post in this thread with your first 8 nominations. Depending on the level of interest, I may expand the number of nominations people can have but for now start with 8 only. I'll give people a few days to sign up and finalize their choices, but keep an eye on this thread for a possible post allowing additional nominations for each player.

Please post your nominations linked and formatted like this:


(List the artist and then the song title, separated by a hyphen. Change the www portion of the video's url to m.)

A correct link looks like this when posted:

The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter

I won't add nominations to the full list until nominations are closed. People can edit their noms all they want until then.

On that note:

If you decide to change your nominations, you can do so until nominations are closed, but DO NOT post a new list. Edit your original post, delete the songs you don't want and add those you do want. But stick to just eight songs until I say otherwise.



count me out for this one...I'm tired of oldies always winning... Send me a pm when y'all doing a 2000's song tournament
