I am the Necrus - Walrus Reveal Thread

Necro · 2020-09-19 09:26:45

Welcome to my Walrus folks :) The largest Walrus in Boards history is almost ready to kick off :D A reminder of the categories first 1. I’m a Little Bit Country…. As a young lad I spent many the day travelling around the place, my uncles and aunts blaring country music in the car and as such have an affinity for it ever…

Congrats G&R and Fixxxer.. well played. Hard Luck LeVar.. nearly did it again, last 2 rounds let you down

Cheers for the game Necro!

The worst thing is, I had initially had Eminem & Rihanna - The Monster as my pick for Hip Hop, but as I was going with Aerosmith - Don't Want To Miss a Thing for the Power Ballad, I didn't want to submit very obvious songs in two categories...

Ah well, great to see fixXxer finally get a win, and I believe this is the second victory for GnR (?), so well done again to both.

Ah look, music taste is subjective so as I said in the beginning, it doesn't mean anyone's entry was awful, just not to my own tastes.

Apart from Hamburger Lady. Woeful tack altogether

1 point (yep, just one) to

Hamburger Lady - Throbbing Gristle

Imagine abandoning the monster playlist to enter this… I… I…I don’t even know how to describe it.
It is patently AWFUL.
It’s not a power ballad, it’s not even music.

A bonkers entry and I have to give it the lowest possible score. Kate Bush or Madonna would have scored higher than this steaming turd.

Initially the entrant actually submitted this…

I may have preferred it tbh!

I am sure my brother had a dirty movie with this title :pac: a bluey

Well done to Fixer, good battle in this.

Hard luck to Le Var, a gracious loser

As for Necro, I've long been on record as saying he has terrible taste in music so this leaves me in a very sticky situation

Fair play Clarabel, I salute you for have the balls to submit this!!!
Throbbing Gristle aren't easy to begin with, and this one is definitely at the more difficult scale.

I won't lie this song was instalove for me!

Congratulations to the winners!

Absolutely delighted fixxxer was on the winners podium as he submitted my favourite song of the whole competition. Thats twice I've seen him do that and of course, with Japanese songs when he submitted Giri Giri Surfrider for mine and Japanglish for this one. Absolute total finds! I still listen to Halcali all the time thanks to Fix!

When I saw I was in the running with one category to go I said to myself :: I should have submitted an aerosmith song. There'll probably be 3 aerosmith songs in here....

No Ragrets though! Great reveal necro. Reallly enjoyed it
