I actually sent Necs a live version but I don't think it would have fared any better, it's even longer

Gary Moore also did a blistering live version that knocks my socks off!

Which means that...

Spook_ie leads the proceedings by 5 points with just one round left to be revealed.

KathleenGrant is in second place on 65 points, with a trio of competitors back on 60 points.

The slip up from LeVar sends them tumbling a little bit, but again... there's 28 points on offer for the winner of Monday's jamboree... so it's (almost) anyone's game yet.


Planning on the final round reveal at about 6pm tomorrow.

Will Spook continue to lead the way with some jokey songs currying Necro's favour?

Can LeVar recover from a big slip?

Will the purple tin EVER escape the bottom three... and will Necro ever be forgiven?

Will anyone agree with Necro's favourite song choices?


Find out tomorrow... same bat forum, same bat place!!!

I was trying to think all day what Hamilton song would fit into the theme. I am disappointed!

I told necro I'd be breaking theme for one of them.

SineadSpears

ooh I bagged a few tonight..

Shanes Mary Mary
Triggers The Struts
Hello2d's Colten Wall

Some I knew but had forgotten about:

Rikands Chocolate Puma!
Shelly's Gaga Judas
LeVar's Soundgarden

And mostly Shane's Fozzy Judas

Gains!

Yeah, but I knew you liked it from one of the tournaments, so would've felt like cheating.

Anyway, I'm not here for the glory, I'm here for the fun... Its not about winning for me... ***stares proudly at the 5 Walrus Crowns in the Trophy Case***

:pac:

ShaneU

A much better number one than yesterday :pac:

Just thought of this one

Maria McKee – Show Me Heaven

Easily the best song submitted. Arguably one of the most on theme songs submitted. Ticked all the boxes and was never really going to move from top spot. Some might point and say ‘ho hum, an obvious choice’ – why didn’t you pick it then? :P Yeah this absolutely deserves the win here, well done ari!

A great pick Ari, well done

Dame Necro classy as always

I hold no hope for my entry tomorrow based on a comment Necro made earlier on the artist

Yeh...the way he makes that guitar sing more than makes up for the lack of sung vocals.

Congrats Ari...the squeky dinosaur says no easter eggs for you Necro

Well done Ari! Thanks Necro! Didn't get to listen to them all tonight but I'll go through them tomorrow.

Finishing off this ‘Quickfire’ Walrus with a Bank Holiday sized special. So how would you chase those Monday blues away folks? Some of you absolutely hit a bullseye with your aim, others on the other hand….


Some songs I’d be thinking about when it comes to chasing Monday Blues away:

And of course, the titular piece I was expecting to be submitted, but wasn't...

In fairness, Rick Astley is an any day song, it’s just amazing :P


See you all around 6pm for the finale of JerusaWalrus!

Rick Astley??????????????? FFS, this just gets worse.

I was gonna go with Manic Monday but figured a few people would probably submit it.

Was also considering The Boomtown Rats.

Is this the light of a new day dawning?
A future bright that you can walk in?
No, it's just another Monday morning
Do it all over again

Am I doing this right?

Monthy Python – Every Sperm Is Sacred


This is just brilliant, right on point thematically and hilarious to boot. Fantastic choice. Can you imagine the absolute MELTDOWN online if this was produced today :pac::pac:

Just brilliant.

I missed the reveal yesterday.

I thought that would get me Sunday's wooden spoon
