CD 18 - Theme Announcement

It's been a while coming, but perhaps the oldest and most used theme of all songs it coming to the CD consortium - LOVE

CD 17 - SPIR17UAL17Y - Results


And the winner of Best Track is …

*dramatic pause*

*needless further pause*

*really annoying extended pause* 

Pete Hodgson’s track Closer To Fine by Indigo Girls with a score of 120 points! This is quite some score. Congratulations Pete on a first time win – you’d best get thinking of the next theme.

In silver medal position is Allan with Take Me To Church by Hozier, which scored 98 points.

Bronze goes to Katja for God Song by Bad Religion, scoring 90 points.

Shall we get the wooden spoon out of the way? This isn’t going to do his persecution complex any good at all because the winner of the wooden spoon is, once again, Jasper with Papa Don’t Preach by Madonna which managed to score only 18 points. To be fair, it was a strong field.

Jasper was also picked out the most times with 12 people correctly identifying his track. Also, it must be borne in mind that this is out of 14 people who had a go at saying who put on what. Although, to be fair, there was a small element of surprise in Jasper’s track selection because as soon as the theme was announced, most people seemed to think that he would go for Like A Prayer by Madonna, so maybe that’s what foxed the two people who didn’t identify him?

The cloak and dagger award for avoiding detection completely is shared between three people this time round, Simon, Howard and Allan.

So on to who guessed who …

Well we have three joint winners in this. Neil, Rob and Mick Lewus, identifying 7 contributors correctly (including themselves).
