[The Human Santapede]

One of my favourite songs of all time has been used by somebody this round. :lovedup:

[The Human Santapede]

I’ve actually enjoyed playing this as a pair. Especially because Cherie is super easy to work with, has great taste and we tend to usually dislike the same songs haha. :lovedup:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Sorry I'm still at work and really busy. Didn't have a lunch break. Only now going to eat something.
I'll definitely do it after work. I finish at 5.

Yeah, I actually liked that we bounced songs off each other before sending. Was great to have a creative sounding board. :love:

[The Human Santapede]

I’ve saved its use especially for this game. ;)

[Parmy]

Are you listening Jake?

[Time to Sleigh]

Are you listening Jake?

I don't think we would have made a great team anyway as I think our music tastes are polar opposite however that might have been interesting...anyway apologies to you Parm/Beso.

[Cherry Christmas]

who are we waiting for

This is why Ben and I made a good team, we got on with the job of choosing a song and scoring in a reasonable time frame... :hehe:

[Cherry Christmas]

Little Mix v U2 could be a great combo as you have to compromise :laugh:

That is quite an annoying song now, it’s a shame that’s all anyone hears cause they’ve got a bunch of good songs

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Thank you Kate for running the game. It's been a lot of fun.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Two of my favorite artists U2 and Madonna. Either way worthy of a 12 in my opinion.

[Holly Christmas]

I absolutely hate that song. It’s honestly one of the worst songs in the world for me :laugh:


I love the B52s and that song reminds me of a time in my life and it took me right back to the 90s. Sorry if you didn't like it but you're only going to please some of the people some of the time. I have to say there were some songs posted I'd hoped never to hear again but I tried to judge them for what they were.

Thank you Katie for all your hard work. In future though, I'd be happy to take part by voting and support the game, but I don't want to submit songs. I found it quite traumatic. People always think their musical taste is best but it's subjective and evocative. It felt kind of like posting pictures of my children so people could vote on which one's the best looking LOL...

So... well done, Ness and everyone who took part. Look forward to the next time, but as a voter only.

Anyhoo... here are the songs posted by The Weapons Inspectors, ie, me:

Reet Petite – Jackie WIlson
Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me) – Cockney Rebel 08 02 1975
Devil Gate Drive – Suzi Quatro January 1974
London Calling – The Clash January & February 1980
Hounds of Love Kate Bush 23 02 1986
Love Shack – The B52s January and February 1990
Linger – The Cranberries 12 02 1994
How You Remind Me – Nickelback 16 02 2002
Moves like Jagger – Maroon 5 ft Christina Aguilera Jan & Feb 2012
Drive – Clean Bandit January 2022
Vertigo = U2

[Livia]

Two of my favorite artists U2 and Madonna. Either way worthy of a 12 in my opinion.

I posted the U2 song without any hope whatsoever of getting a vote LOL... they are my favourite band but I thought everyone hated them.

Always been a massive fan. Even saw them play live. They're so incredible.
