šŸŽ· Music League - The Yeoman’s Revenge šŸŽ· ROUND 8 A story track šŸŽ·

Yeah, I have a shortlist of 20 songs without putting anywhere near as much effort in as I have in other rounds.

Think the winning song might be Scottish

I am pretty sure he’s only saying he would walk 500 miles and then 500 more, he doesn’t actually say that he did - not technically a story.

If I look on HGATR to see how popular an artist is, is that overthinking Music League?

I think if a really credible song we are all likely to know crops up I might give it a point, i.e. Nirvana - Aneurysm. The last round winner, Argent by Jane Weaver I had not heard before and loved it so naturally I gave it more points and will probably buy the vinyl of that album. That’s what it’s all about for me really.

Although, this said. I am going to win the story round, as long as people listen.

I’m having more indecision this round than any other. Have a bunch of choices in mind and really can’t decide.

Is the submission for this round starting today? Fearing I’ve missed it, if otherwise.

I didn’t notice the early submission email.

There’s one Scottish song that I reckon is definitely going to be chosen - it even has a title which is clamouring for the win. I imagine a few people might be rushing to select it as soon as the email goes out. Hopefully there’ll be plenty of new songs I like so I don’t need to vote for it!

Torn between two tracks - one i like a lot more but could be quite divisive, another is perfect for the theme but might not stand out enough in the playlist. I think it’ll be a last-second decision when the email goes out.

I’ve only really got one good idea for this one so I imagine it will have been selected the instant nominations open.

Will be interesting to find out if we are all thinking of the same one as pretty sure it will win. Undeniably a story, a band beloved of DIs. (I’m not submitting it).

This keeps making me think of Karl Pilkingon’s song with a story on the XFM shows

Can’t decide whether to go for serious, intense and meaningful or something that might make people smile.

D) All of the above

Bit torn too! Got one that’s short but sweet then another that’s a great epic…

Got my first choice for the first time in a couple of rounds

I’ve gone for an all-timer I suspect virtually everyone will know. It feels a bit hollow - I much prefer sharing less well known stuff - but the prospect of digging for something felt exhausting

Have gone for the one I like the most, setting myself up for a world of hurt and dismissive comments

Stuck with my original song pick, I think it will be new to most of you despite not being a new song & I’m hoping some of you like it!

Have done exactly the same, having vacillated more on this choice than any of the others, and also feel oddly hollow about it! It’s an absolute all-timer I was surprised is still available, and a brilliant song, but I’m not sure it feels right…
