What do we mean by single word artist? Is the implication that it’s single monikered people/solo artists only or is a one word band like say Doves eligible too?

Well, this will be a really hard one :grin:

I’m assuming it means any group or solo act using a single word name. So Radiohead would count but not if they were Radio Head. Not sure about Radio-Head though.

I’d just go with any bunch of letters with no gaps in them

Thanks both, that’s helpful. I was struggling a bit for inspiration this round, but you’ll all be pleased to hear I can now remove Kiss From A Rose from my placeholder list…

Got one artist for this that I’ve meant to play for ages. Not sure they’ll do well but I love them and think they’re v underrated so that’s enough

This round was my choice.

Just one word, band or solo artist. I quite like it when every so often a round is less limited musically, makes for a broad scope.

So torn on this one. Go with something otherworldly that inexplicably isn’t getting Music League attention or much DiS attention in general? Shout one of ā€œmy bandsā€ into the void in the hopes that a couple people might view them differently after hearing a different side of them?

The lack of Zwan on Spotify is killing me.

Maybe the best song of the past 20 years, just wait until that second half:

Unbelievably beautiful:

Wish we somehow knew the League 6 categories, would make this easier to narrow down.

Cheers :smiley:! I hadn’t done other prep work so have rethink now

Well remember the ā€˜big 4’ thrash bands all have single word names. Just saying…

I’ve got a song/artist I want to use but I don’t think it’ll reach my new standard of 10 points this time. At least I’ve got a bit of a buffer from duck anyhow!

(I initially accidentally copied and pasted the link for a song I was considering for a future round, which wasn’t a one-word artist. So I’m glad I was paying attention to what I submitted afterwards, and didn’t spectacularly fail the rules!)
