    In 19th place we have a song which sadly suffers from the fact that a friend of mine learned to play it on guitar and hasn't STFU with it since. I'm sad to say that I've heard this one butchered by a load of drunk people at one too many house parties for it to have stood any chance...



    So, the very first point of the game goes to:

    Damn it...I meant to include this in my opening post. Not everyone wanted their stories shared so I thought it might be fun if the person who posted it wanted to share if they felt like it - make it a bit more interactive?

    I don’t think I understood the concept of this question :o

    Was it not that the song told a story?

    But also, until the next song is revealed..

    FIRST place ;)

    This next song, while new to me, just didn't do it for me. I really like her voice but I didn't love the lyrics at all and despite listening to it a lot, it never grew on me.




    Artist: Marina
    Song: To Be Human

    You did. And it did. Unfortunately my mate has killed this song dead for me. You're a victim of circumstance here. :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,617 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Ooooh never heard this before but I LOVE it!

    Ohhh no I wasn’t contesting my score, I just got embarrassed thinking I didn’t get it :P

    Clara I like that song too!!

    That Fray song is odd, after all these years I still don't know if I love it or hate it!

    It's the lead singer dude, his warbling can get a bit annoying in other songs but for me it just works in that one


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    How long will the reveal go on actually if we’re going through every song(not that I’m complaining)? Just curious :)

    Am feeling strangely anxious :(

    This was a song I know but am not hugely familiar with. I liked it. It's not a bad song but I feel like I've heard the story told in a better way - which I hope makes sense. This was a seperated from the next couple of songs by a fairly thin margin. In the end it went on gut feel.

    Always get that frays song confused with Hey There Delilah, not sure why as they probably sound nothing alike. I think they may have been out around the same time or something like that.

    I didn't go with it but I listened to this entire album for this round, love it :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    Next up was another song I know. My friend and his kid adore this band so I'm familiar with a fair bit of their stuff. I like this song well enough but this one fell down the rankings a bit as I wasn't 100% clear on the story from the song.
