You want two songs in the Country round, so we should be sending you 7 songs in total, yeah? Just want to be sure I have it all straight so I definitely win...
You may wanna throw it in the OP that you want them via PM ; plenty of fresh faces round FG these days that may not be familiar with the Walrus submissions etiquette...

I've just never explored it. What I have heard hasn't grabbed me, definitely don't have anything worthy of throwing at someone else's ears! I'll try a bit though, see if anything jumps out
Look outside of Ireland for Country while you are exploring.
Country songs actually fit very well into the "Songs with Lyrics" category (and the songs you love but don’t think anyone else will) 0 -

I'm going to sit this one out Clarabel because I'd struggle with some of the categories.
But I like what you said in 'songs with lyrics'. I'm the same in that when I hear a song, I form an image in my head & go by whatever feels I get from the sound alone.
Some songs I haven't a clue what the lyrics are & I may have been listening to them for years & even singing the words.
Example would be Adele who I liked for a long time, & then stopped & listened to her lyrics, & realised she is quite creepy & stalkerish
I'll follow the reveal anyway, might learn a new song or two. Good luck with your walrus

Sorry I should have been clearer - you don't have to enter 2 songs for country, but I'm giving you 2 chances to get the points in.
So should we or shouldn't we enter two songs for Country? Is it a case of we can, but we don't have to as only the one you prefer will be judged, yeah?
Also, do you have a deadline in mind. Trying to narrow some of the categories down might take me a couple of days. 0 -

I've my list done up. Gonna send them through now. Wasn't feeling too hopeful with some of the categories but a little bit of thought & I realised I've great taste in music so I've nothing to worry about
No matter the score at the end, I'm happy with all my choices anyway..
& I'm only sending one country because its the only one I know. I'll take the hit on the points 0 -

that was the easiest for me, Clara said "the song that made you love the genre" and though I'm not a fan of the genre, there is a song that I absolutely love.
The country was a bit trickier, but I had a couple of songs that I find OK (courtesy of RuPaul's Drag Race lip-syncing part of the show).
Overall I'm very happy with my selections and I don't care how good or bad I do. This Walrus and Arghus's gave me the chance to select some of the artists that wouldn't fit to most other walruses.
Clara, maybe you could post a link of this thread to the "Upcoming Forum Games" or "Walrus Sign-Ups" threads. It could help you get more traction 0 -

I wonder are we all going for the same song, because I'll be going old skool for my hip-hop one as well. As far as I'm concerned it's a genre that peaked at the beginning and went downhill after that.
Well, I've gone for a recent hip-hop, but I suspect someone else may go for the same artist if not the same song.0 -

I had a few options in my head for this, all from the late 80s.
Mine is very obvious I would say, so I won't be surprised if someone else submits it too!!0 -

True. At first it was about breakdancing and house parties- having a bit of craic.I wonder are we all going for the same song, because I'll be going old skool for my hip-hop one as well. As far as I'm concerned it's a genre that peaked at the beginning and went downhill after that.
Then that gangsta rap/thug life sh1te took over and it was all about gangs, shooting people, drug dealing and pimping

Highly doubt that. I don't know what I was thinking with my own choice
Its a song I like but it definitely not credible music.
I think I just got excited when I came up with songs for the categories I knew nothing about (country & foreign), that I just blew through the others :pac:
I like my other songs but regret not putting more thought into my hip hop ..0 -

So again with my hiphop shocker, I was talking to the boss a while ago about my shame & then we remembered a particular funny event involving my song. So for that memory alone being brought back, I'm happy I submitted it now 0
