    James Vincent McMorrow - Be Somebody





    This song was so close to getting top 3 but for a final few listens to the category. Really enjoyed this entry.

    It was that or go Mayo... and I wouldn't inflict Seachanges by Raymond Deane on my worst enemy ;)

    ShaneU



    Fontaines D.C. - A Lucid Dream






    Yeah I just didn’t like this one… it just came across as a lot of noise to me unfortunately.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    In 3rd place with 14 points


    Kolido



    Enya - Only Time





    This is just amazing. I’m normally not gone on the more spiritual, slow pace tracks but I do make exceptions, and here’s a perfect example. Brilliant.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    In 15th place with 2 points


    Deja Boo



    Cathal Dunne - Will You Link Your Arms With Me







    Couldn’t get into this one at all unfortunately. Just a fairly monotone track. Message is good I guess but there's better out there imo.

    Great pick... now was it selected by Donegal Kolido or Killiney Kolido? ;)

    Trigger



    Late City Edition - Slow it down







    Great track this, the start is deceptive in thinking you’re in for a low key track but it’s a decent bop. Really enjoyed it.

    Soooooo


    the purple tin or Liz have topped this round... who's it gonna be?


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,538 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Can the Purple tin FINALLY win something?

    The purple tin



    Horslips - Faster Than The Hound








    See I’m familiar with Horslips but not this track. Just didn’t enjoy this one at all. Faster than the Hound? Is the hound crawling along the floor, near death? :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,538 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Nope :pac:


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    In 1st place with 16 points



    JP Liz V1



    Stephanie Rainey - No Cowboy








    This is easily the best song submitted, there’s a proper huge artist vibe off the track despite me never having heard of her in my life. Great voice, great arrangement. Loved it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 84,817 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Yay I'm numero uno finally

    I recommend Stephanie (a Cork artist) to everyone, she has a good few tracks, very talented

    Electric Nitwit 6 8 13 16 8 14 15 9 7 96


    It's ARI101 who leads going into the final round.... 4 points clear of ShaneU in second place.

    It gets very congested though with Electric Nitwit and Trigger in joint 3rd one further point back on 96.

    LeVar is a further point off on 95 and cee_jay is just about still in the mix on 90 points... she would need a lot of things to fall her way though...

    Down the bottom the battle for the spoon will go to the last round too, a single point seperating Deja Boo and the purple tin....

    Editing me: ok Summer songs... new question, wft did I submit??? :eek: :confused: :pac:


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Ah the summer, the time of year where you wind the windows down and show off your farmers tans whilst cruising to the beach. Or spend ages blowing up a pool in your back garden with only the wind in your lungs because your electronic pump got broken. Stuff like that. Some songs that speak to me regarding summertime…. (In remix form just to annoy everyone :P )














    Right let’s get started here, 6 people still with a legit shot at the title – who will prevail? Lettuce find out!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,538 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Oh.. feeling a bit more confident.. not much mind you :D
