    Another walrus. You know the score!

    Categories:

    A song with no lyrics
    Just as it says on the tin... I'll accept something with very very few lyrics if absolutely necessary.

    A song from an animated movie
    There are some absolute beauties that come out of these movies, and some songs from movies you wouldn't expect that I've even put into my regular rotation. I wanna hear moar!

    A song that will make me cry
    It could be because of the lyrics, it could be the music, it could be because the whole song is complete garbage. Whatever you got, I wanna listen.

    A song that will get my blood flowing
    Some might call these workout songs. I call them BELTERS. Gimme something that's gonna get me wanting to hop around the place like a drunko in a disco.

    A song with some incredible drums
    I like a good drum. I LOVE a good military drum beat, if you go that route, your in for a winner. Smash my face in with your drumsticks.

    A song with a fantabulous solo
    Solo? Guitar? Banjo? Keyboard? Tin Whistle? I'm down for whatever.

    Let's have SAX
    I have a serious obsession with good sax music. Though I find it hard to discover more a lot of the time. Pls hlp!

    Like a mashed potato
    Gimme a mash up. I LOVE mashups. Especially ones that cross genres you'd never expect to combine well. Few mashups, be grand.

    I'm looking for some new music I'll hopefully never have heard, so top of the chart, popular songs are unlikely to score well this time around.

    Thank you and godspeed.


    EDIT: Last time, I encouraged people to include a snippet of info with each of their songs. I'd love if people would do that again :) ~ sponsored by EN

    I might have to repeat a song and give my description again based on what you said last time...

    Jesus christ. I couldn't even finish reading this because that is like the most emotional thing in the world for me. I'm gonna have to go back and listen again to get that from the song :(

    Entry submitted.

    Don't think I've ever been less confident about my submissions. But that might just be the beer talking.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,919 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    I just send my nominations.

    Difficult to predict, some great categories with wide scope for songs, so I went for some obscure songs.

    Thanks for organising tusk.

    Good categories.

    I look forward to agonising over the choices.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,612 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    As always after entering, I'm listening to music now thinking "damn, they're good drums", "oh, is that a sax", "cracking solo" etc etc :pac:

    I'm actually very surprised that it's the drums that has me stumped :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,336 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I'm about half way there. Not so much stuck but I just have such a large selection for some of the categories I dont know which one to submit :D
