Jeffrey Osborne - On The Wings Of Love - Now this is a song I love. Thank you.

Dorothy - Raise Hell - Only found this when I was playing in the last tournament. After looking for stuff like the Screaming Females/Garbage combo and this was possibly my favourite. There were a few others which I was going to nominate, but I'll probably do one of those next.

Dream Theater - Untethered Angel - Very technical and a good example of the craft. Like most of this stuff, it goes on for longer than I'd like, but this one didn't outstay its welcome.

Quix*O*Tic - Lord of this World - Is it just me or is there more than a hint of early Black Sabbath's here? It's good though.

The Cramps - What's Inside a Girl? - I very nearly nominated something from this band, but went with Dorothy as I'm pretty sure I've nominated the other song before. I like them, but even at 3 minutes I'm usually tiring of it by the end.

Thornetta Davis - Cry - This is ok. At least it's got a little something to it. Nothing's really grabbing me today.

Breaking Benjamin - So Cold - Noughties rock sounding very much like Noughties rock. Meh.

Johnnie Ray - Bury Me Out On The Lone Prairie - Just not my thing. Inoffensive enough though.

Charlie Rich - The Most Beautiful Girl - I'm just to mehhed out to comment now. Sorry.

Bob Dylan - Maggie's Farm - I just don't get Dylan.

A system of cells interlinked
1. Dream Theater - Untethered Angel - I haven't like a record from these guys since the early 90s, but their latest is actually pretty good. They have finally dialed back the mind-numbing noodling.

2 Breaking Benjamin - So Cold - Best tune from these guys.

3. Dorothy - Raise Hell - I have never heard this, but I like it!

4. Quix*O*Tic - Lord of this World - Gritty. Good stuff!

5. Thornetta Davis - Cry - This could easily have been in 4th, but it slipped to 5th in the end.

6. The Cramps - What's Inside a Girl? Lux!

7. Charlie Rich - The Most Beautiful Girl A bit overplayed, but a classic nonetheless.

8. Johnnie Ray - Bury Me Out On The Lone Prairie - Tolerable country song.

9. Jeffrey Osborne - On The Wings Of Love - A little too far into the elevator music realm for my taste.

10. Bob Dylan - Maggie's Farm - Still can't stand this guy.

Round 5 nomination:

The Cramps - What's Inside a Girl?


Since participation seems to be lagging a bit, I'm recruiting my pals @cricket, @Nostromo87 and @cat_sidhe. Maybe one or all can join. If so, the rules are in the first post. This tournament's not time-consuming at all (always 48 hours to vote), and you can drop in and out as you please. I know cricket has stopped joining tournaments because he said he's run out of songs to nominate, but surely he can think of one song at a time, even if it's one of the many he's nominated in the past.
Ok, read the rules. Let me know when to jump in.



Women will be your undoing, Pépé
