Electric Nitwit

Drive it Like You Stole it - Sing Street

This is a cracking entry, would you believe I hadn’t seen Sing Street :eek: This entry basically changed that – what a CRACKING movie. Loved it. Anyways I just loved this a little bit more than the others in the top 3 which allowed it to pinch the win in this category.

(Werewolf players may understand what my rambling about it on Sunday evening last was now finally :pac: )

So does Shane's result open up the top of the table or has someone else run away with it???

Shane's lead is cut to a single point with LeVar gaining quite a bit of ground with that round.

ari, cee_jay, Liz and EN are all within a few points of the top there...

As for the next round... well.... see the next post, cos y'all have a choice...

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 29-05-2021 10:37pm

Strangely, the three other songs I had been considering entering for this category if I didn't go for Walk Through The Fire, were Drive It Like You Stole It, Wait For It, and Defying Gravity... What are the odds of not even just all of them being entered, but making up the Top 4... Crazy... :eek:

Necro · 29-05-2021 10:38pm

I can do the 90s Round RIGHT NOW....

OR

We can leave it at that for this evening and I'll do a double round tomorrow evening from an earlier time, whichever ye prefer.

No blurb necessary for this one, it’s the 90s BABAY!!!

Let’s get this 90s party started bitchessss!!

Oh yeah, and of course.... given the night that's in it

My cork not screw top bottle of wine needs to be finished so better to do it with company, given someone chose whiskey over a Macon-Villages... First would problem, more for me :pac: (yes trigger more alcohol chat

In 13th place with 4 points

Sawduck

Len - Steal My Sunshine

Great little track this. This round was quality from start to finish and I think that shows with this track finishing so low. Very unlucky to finish low here, there wasn't a song I disliked in this round at all so came down to a bit of personal preference in the end.

JP Liz V1 · 29-05-2021 10:52pm

This is what I need tonight, great selected choices

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 29-05-2021 10:53pm

I can see myself in bottom three this round, went for a personal fave rather than a '90s classic

Garbage - Only Happy When It Rains

Garbage had some really good tracks in the 90s, this would be one of my fave of theirs. Nothing really to criticise here about this choice, as I said for the previous song I liked pretty much every entry here so it just went on personal preference at the end of the day.

I honestly feel bad about ranking 'Steal My Sunshine', 'Only Happy When It Rains' and what's coming up in the next few songs, hell even the bottom three so low in this round, it's a fantastic standard of entries so well done everyone.

LeVar

Hepburn - I Quit

I think this is another off the Buffyverse soundtracks. Loved this song when I first heard it. I’m more ambivalent about it these days. Still a great little choon mind.

My changed my mind so many times for this round - I found it so difficult! My other choices were Defying Gravity, Cell Block Tango and Turn it Off (Book of Mormon). While I didn't consider yours - great great choice!

Pearl Jam - Why Go

I was certain I knew who had entered this when I started listening to the tracks – turns out I was completely wrong haha, sorry about that Trigger :P Really like this track.

Electric Nitwit

Faithless – Salva Mea

Faithless are unequivocally 90s, no doubt about that. This tune is an absolute banger in parts… I do feel the runtime is unnecessary though, there’s an awful lot of faffing around to get to the meat of the product. Enjoyable, but just a little bit too long.

The purple tin

The Black Crowes - Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye

This is just a great ould jam. Loved the guitar work from start to finish. A very different and unexpected, but excellent choice for this category. So typical purple tin entry then

Britney Spears - Hit Me Baby One More Time

I’ve kinda gone off this a bit after having to sing it for my last panto. It’s still a 90s classic mind and a cracking track.

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Hadn’t actually heard this one before, was very pleasantly surprised with it. The video is pretty sombre too with all the missing kids

Absolutely no way I'm higher than these songs..

Weezer - Buddy Holly

Haha, I sing the chorus to this track at random times on a regular basis so it was always doing well in this round. Nice choice. This would also have done well in category one, I mean the Fonz as a guest star?

Hopefully I put in the right video this time :P

Shania Twain - Any Man Of Mine

This was just a bit too sickly sweet for me. I don’t mind Shania normally and I'm a big fan of country... but this song I wasn’t particularly gone on if I’m honest. Not terrible by any stretch, but not great either.
