    Next up is a song with very low sing-along potential. It grew on me after a few listens but still not very much. Maybe on a night out I could see myself dancing to it but overall not for me I'm afraid.


    19th position goes to
    sKeith
    scoring 2 points.


    That song has wonderful sing a long potential, just listen on your ear buds in a busy pub and sing along, its great. waving your finger about at differnent peoples directions helps.

    So, I did a lot of listening to these songs 'blind' in that I didn't know who had submitted what. I wanted to be as unbiased as possible in a 'contest' that is entirely biased :p

    Well, when I heard this next song, I was SURE I knew who'd submitted it. Did I?



    This scored 3 points in 17th place. There are one or two Westlife songs that could have done well. Unfortunately for
    Green & Red
    this wasn't one of them.

    So...the next few songs I found hard to categorise as being cheese but I do accept it's in the eye of the beholder.

    The song in 17th place is hilarious. It made me crack up BUT to me this is less a comedy song and more a comedy sketch with some music thrown in. It's a fine line but I'm a finicky judge and this just fell the wrong side of that line for me.

    16th place is a tough one. It's sentimental enough to be considered cheese but lacks the upbeat element that I would associate with cheesy choons and seems too sincere for true fromage status.

    Shoutout to the hat and moustache though. Quality.



    5 points go to
    Tritium
    for this one.

    Another song that isn't quite what I had in mind with cheese...it started well but became a relatively decent song. One I'd listen to again but not so much Easi Singles as fancy restaurant cheese

    I think the video is far cheesier than the song Tusk. Nice track.
