CD 10 - And the votes are in ...

A big congratulations to everyone - we managed to get the votes in on time, although for some it went a little close to the wire. See, it can be done!

So, Simon is the clear winner for 'Fifteen Years' - a track which Neil had previously selected, but had then said that he had another option if anyone went for any of his. Well someone did, and Neil therefore replaced his with The Seers and the rest is history.

So, on to the second place ... Simon again with Semisonic in a stunning 1-2. This also means that Simon wins the most valued overall contribution too!

The Bronze medal goes to newcomer Rob for Buck Rogers, and an interesting little digression surrounds that track, which I may save for a separate entry.

Next to mention - Katja takes the medal for best guesser of who put on what, with an amazing 8/23 or 6/21 if you discount her own tracks. Next closest was Neil with 6/23 or 4/21.

I think 'Born Slippy' deserves a mention for several reasons: At least three of you wanted to put it on. It is over the time limit, but there was just enough space left on the CD to fit the full version on, so that was the decision taken, poor Nick had to wade through 22 other songs before getting to hear his choice, and most people seemed to think it had been put on by 'Techno' Jim (who was actually one of the others to suggest the track).

And so on to the wooden spoon - or double-headed wooden spoon as Mick chose to call it! I think most people wondered what the Tangerine Dream tracks were on there for, and I certainly struggled to know where to place them. As an aside, I think the link between Sequent C' and Prelude and Yodel is one of my favourites on the CD.

A few people avoided being identified as the originator of their track entirely - I almost made it with both of my tracks, but Neil pegged me for Katzenjammer, as well he might given that it had featured on the whatswrongwiththemainstream.blogspot.co.uk site that we both contribute to.

Whiskey in the Jar nearly featured multiple times, but I don't think Pete was going for the Metallica version.

Mick Lewus managed to get 'Blues' into one of his song titles, but so did Neil.

Pete H's Otava Yo track took some tracking down until I copied the Cyrillic characters one by one from character map into a Google search to reveal the westernised translation.

All that remains now is for us to decide on when to start the next CD off after Simon has chosen a theme.

Cheers and thanks,
Chris
