Same, still weirdly paranoid
Ended up with a few great possibilities for this one but quite confident about the one I’ve picked
Literally listened to a song for the first time, liked it, realised it was 9 letters, submitted
If I don’t go changing my mind later on then this is the most painless song choice yet!
Fucking hell - I’ve got one submitted that I think is original enough to get me points, but there’s also one that I think is cooler (and possible more points but probably less) and I’ve just realised one of my favourite songs ever is a 9-er (but probably won’t get points and I’m saving the band for a later round).
Really hope someone fucks it
And now I’ve got two more all time songs on the list too…
Just letting some lucky person know that Chemistry by Arcade Fire is a 9-letter song!
I settled on my choice days ago but realised last night that my favourite track by an artist popular on here is 9 letters long. Reckon it’s a bit too atonal to attract many points from non-fans though so sticking with my previous choice
I look forward to the big reveal of who we all planned to post.
6 points again - I really am the Newcastle United of the music league.
First choice taken (was probably an obvious one) - happy with my second choice though. Will probably get another gubbing though.
Where do we stand on a song title that is nine letters long but then has a (live) or (remix) etc after the nine letters?
I’d not count things like " - 1997 remaster" which seem to be really common tags on Spotify which might not have the original mastered release. I think I would count remix or live details as part of the title though as it distinguishes from another version of the song.
For it
Was going to go for a track that had the letters “N I E” in the title but I knew the league is full of pedants and would be flamegrilled
After pretty much never getting a duplicate across this whole thing I’ve got one on the round with one of the loosest briefs ever. Furious
I was stuck for ages at what I could pick for this. Then went through my loved tracks on last.fm and realised I had loads to chose from!
Got my first pick. Could have gone for something more obvious, but think my tune’s gonna have a small but important impact.
I think that would be fine for me, but you might love pedant points.
I’ve submitted. It’s a banger, IMO. But overfamiliarity might kill its chances. I’ve got another I’d love to submit because I think it’s great but the artist is somewhat controversial and I don’t want to open that whole art vs artist debate again.
Changed my choice, but not to the controversial artist. Something else. Something more DiS. Happy with my selection.
3 points
Have counted the letters in my song title multiple times after Grindin’gate, but I still can’t shake the feeling that I’ve gotten it wrong
