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

I’ve submitted. Like others, I’ve struggled with this round, could only think of the really obvious examples so am pleased that my choice was still available. Doubt it will get many points despite being an all-timer. We shall see though

Mine is submitted.

Phew!

Thought of something in the end, might not get a chance to listen to the whole thing though. Was tempted to pick something else that I hate (but I’m pretty sure that someone else will pick) and change at the last minute but I’m not about that life.

Got in there first!

You snooze, you lose suckers!

Strolling in at 14:38 knowing that my song won’t have been chosen, despite 38 of you Try Hards already having selected songs. Looking forward to this round, and glad it’s not on a work day so that I can listen to the words that may or may not make up stories.

as expected someone has taken a track by this artist, presumably the one i wasn’t leaning towards. happy enough to switch to my second choice artist though, nice to have my decision made for me (they will definitely beat me though)

got my first choice in

surprised people are struggling in this round though, i think i’d have had a lot of options if i hadn’t settled on my choice so early

People are going to hate my pick this time. I’ve definitely abandoned hope of doing well, just picking things I love at this point.

Down to 33rd, just need to fine tune my next few choices.

I’m looking forward to some outrageously bad rap in the final round as people duke it out for 35th

oh i’ve just played around with the submissions to work out which track by my first choice artist someone has gone for. an unexpected one but a good one!

I can’t make myself choose or listen to songs in that round, so I possibly need to end up in 30th position before that, and then hope that the right number of people score points below me!

This is glorious stuff - never knew* that Wonderful Tonight was about someone in a wheelchair!

*ā€œknewā€

I had one, and exactly one, idea for this round, and someone’s beaten me to the artist. Tempted to fuck them over and pick them again (I won’t do this)

Think a lot of cupcaKKe’s songs have stories in them actually

I’ve had about ten choices for this round, but very happy that my first choice hadn’t been picked!

This time someone actually picked the wrong song by the right artist, good thing I have 20 songs to obsessively switch between all day. Not that I’m playing for points at this point, but I wonder how pedantic people are going to be about implied stories and ones buried in abstraction.

I love story songs but concerned about the effort and concentration required to listen to 53 of them in a row

Can’t wait for this round. Early shift at work tomorrow then going to take in the (song) stories all weekend. Genuinely think for the first time I might have a winner. Looking forward to all your comments.
