    Have I listened to this artist before? Yes
    Have I listened to this song before? Yes

    This is a lot more Funk than Disco (the title doesn’t lie :pac:) Never been a massive fan of this unfortunately.

    But maybe you should consider this amazing :p cover version:

    Have I listened to this song before? Yes the good version.


    Oh god my eeeeeeeeeears. I love the Boney M song. Why didn’t you just send that instead of subjecting me to this? As far as covers go they do a good job of capturing the original song but I just can’t deal with the guitar and drums…. and vocals….and is that every instrument in the song covered? :D

    That is absolutely superb. The original is a crock of sh*te imo, but that's just mad brilliance. :D

    Homer J. Fong takes the lead! Will he continue his hot form of winning almost every forum game I host? The next round will be early next week hopefully.

    I wouldn't bet on it yet, think I've used up my "safe" choices at this stage. :o Last two are songs I do love but probably don't have the same mass appeal that my other four choices (arguably all "classics" at this stage) have. Also possibly mood dependent - one is a downer, the other is....angry! :cool:

    Good reveal tonight, I heartily agree with your sentiments on Rock The Boat - as soon as it comes on it's time to disappear to the bar/toilet/smoking area/home/literally anywhere else!! (Sorry Gru! :p )


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,686 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    Missed most of tonight's reveal - great 1st choice. I am now confident I can stay out of wooden spoon territory with my final choice...or can I ¯\_(☯෴☯)_/¯

    The Electric Light Orchestra aren't disco - changing to ELO and having an album called Discovery does not make it so...

    excellent choice CJ Maxx, would have been mine had i not been compelled to go with what i went with! :o

    I’m after listening to it again as I’m catching up on the reveal.
    I was worried it didn’t meet the criteria for disco but I have to say I love that song and my feet are still tapping :)

    Tomorrow (or possibly Wednesday) at 8pm it's time for....

    248-2487884_the-wilderness-true-colors-png.png

    This was a very broad category compared to the previous few with a wide selection of artists for you to choose from so you've no excuses this time :P 8 different colours were chosen. Some colours did better than others. I'm going to be honest one colour I was not a fan of at all! Was it yours?? :eek:

    Anyway here are some great colours that weren't chosen!

    Cream - I Feel Free


    The Coral - In The Morning


    Indigo Girls - Closer To Fine


    Andrew Gold - Lonely Boy


    Deep Purple - Smoke On The Water


    Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye

    Hey, look at that. Two of the songs from my SURLAW were colour themed and I never copped!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Almost went with Cream - I Feel Free, i love that song


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,686 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    I nearly went with Cream forgot all about Andrew Gold and probably picked the colour you hatedミ●﹏☉ミ

    Wondering if this was one entry with a unique colour that he didn't like, or if there were like 5 or 6 entries with the same colour and he hated all of them?! :eek:

    I’m guessing multiple green entries :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,069 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Based on the performance of one of my previous selections, I expect low placing again.

    I will follow the action with great interest nevertheless.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,007 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    I know you're all wondering "What would EN have done?" (bracelets available in the gift shop) :p

    I didn't have time to get an entry sorted sadly but I did have this round. Little known and I really like it so I thought I'd throw it up anyway...

    Jacob Golden - Out Come The Wolves


    Hope you like it, if you have time for a little listen :)
