TiBB's Song of the 90s is No Doubt's "Don't Speak"

[Shaun]

there're 5 songs tied for the bottom 2, waaaaah.

[Shaun]

nope, make that 6.

[Benjamin]

Bump.

[Niamh.]

rofl are you kidding me

I said LOL and joked about something being so unlikely it'd result in me eating Ann out. Wtaf is threatening about that?

and the David Gray thing was brought up by Niamh, not me :crazy: so like I said, if you all hate me being such a snob don't bring it up :conf2:

tbh the whole David Gray conversation between you and me, I took as being light hearted

[Shaun]

yeah I know LOL

[Shaun]

Sixpence None the Richer - Kiss Me - 13
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under the Bridge - 11
David Gray - This Year's Love - 10

Wait so we are down to the final 9?

[Benjamin]

I missed a round? When did that happen? Damn those 'arguing posts'.

-gives up caring-

[Shaun]

final ten :p four of the songs in the poll go through

[Benjamin]

I missed a round due to a whole page of 'arguing' so didn't realise we were on a new one. It's made me not care who wins now. Although if David Gray wins that will be a complete farce to this whole competition, his song does not reflect the 90's as it failed to do much in 1999 and did better upon re-release in 2001. :tongue:

[Shaun]

ikr s0b

but yeah I was confused by you bumping it because I didn't remember you voting LOL

[Niamh.]

Personally I think Nirvanas Smells Like Teen Spirit is the most iconic song of the 90's not just because they're one of my favourite bands but because they were the biggest grunge band of the 90's and because of his death in the 90's as well.

[Shaun]

-agrees-

[Benjamin]

I'd personally like Nirvana, Sixpence None The Richer or Brimful of Asha. Those were proper 90's songs that you would hear everywhere you went.

[Benjamin]

ikr s0b

but yeah I was confused by you bumping it because I didn't remember you voting LOL

Why didn't you remind me! /sob

[Marc]

Did I miss this round?

[Shaun]

The Final Round!
(finally)

160 songs have been whittled down to these remaining ten, and in true Shaun style it's only fair that to decide your winner of TiBB's Song of the 90s, I'll ask you to rank them in order of preference.

The highest-rated song will be given 9 points: the lowest nothing. Once I've received something over 10 votes I'll announce the results in ascending order (so no smart-arses try and work out the scores and spoil it before I do :hmph:)

[Marc]

I'm glad my contribution came 10th :love:

[Marc]

No Doubt :amazed: ?

[Shaun]

TR3Vdo5etCQ

"Don't Speak" by No Doubt.

Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", initially winning, finishes second.

Thanks to everyone who's voted, submitted songs and generated votes for me :spin2: I'll get to work on an eighties version soon.

[Marc]

Yay!!! I'm happy with that :) Thanks Shaun, good job guys, worthy song

[Black Dagger]

BROS TO WIN 80's xoxoxoxooxoxox

I'm happy with No Doubt, yeah, not my favourite song in the world, but happy.

[Niamh.]

Not a horrible result, though Nirvana should have won :idc:

[Z]

Good effort, TiBB!

[GypsyGoth]

Thanks for running it Shaun :love:

[Niamh.]

Yes, well done Shaun, good show!

[Z]

Ty Shu :love:

[Black Dagger]

Oh yeah, cheers Shaun, ty for running, it was stunning.

[Benjamin]

Not a bad result, Don't Speak is a good reflection of the 90's. Also glad Sixpence None The Richer did so well, my best faring suggestion. :hugesmile:


Also, grand effort, Shaun.

[Shaun]

technically Jordan. wins because he suggested Don't Speak :laugh:

[SharkAttack]

Gwen Stefani :lovedup:

[Benjamin]

technically Jordan. wins because he suggested Don't Speak :laugh:

I forgot to add the word 'my'. :tongue:

[Niamh.]

technically Jordan. wins because he suggested Don't Speak :laugh:

What would be interesting though would be a result only voted for by people who were listening to music in the 90's :idc:

[Shaun]

have you been eating lemons, Niamh? You sound bitter :idc:

[Niamh.]

have you been eating lemons, Niamh? You sound bitter :idc:

I may have had one or two :idc:

[Kate!]

Glad Sixpence did so well :love:

Good result. Gwen Stefani is awesome. Thanks for doing this Shaun, really enjoyed it. Can't wait for the Eighties version.

[Marc]

No Doubt better represents the 90s than M.I.A did the 00's :)
