    I've been working all weekend, long days. And falling into bed as soon I get home. Didnt know this was on :(

    Cold Blue Mount Everest was one of my noms, but no sadness about what it went out to.


    So hard to pick just 10....

    Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless) (classic)
    Da Hool - Meet Her at the Loveparade (classic)
    DJ Quicksilver Bellissima (classic)
    Ferry Corsten - Indigo (one of mine)
    Michael Grey - The Weekend (not one of mine, narrowly missed out)
    Punchunella - San Trancisco
    Purple Haze - Adrenaline (one of mine)
    System F - Out of the Blue (one of mine)
    Toxxify : Cyborg Chase (for tpt who voted for a lot of my entries in earlier rounds :D )
    Veracocha - Carte Blanche (one of mine)


    When I saw that hideaway track, before I listened to it, I had hoped it was this.

    that's a shame that cold blue came up against energy 52, I'd have both of those down as potential favourites.

    I got to see Cold Blue play in Athlone back in..... Jesus, 2018 already. Sadly he didnt play Mount Everest, or downhill, like I had hoped but it was still a good gig. Paul Denton who also played on the night stole the show though. His set was out of this world!

    Hope the OT calms down soon.
    Purple Haze Adrenaline is a Tune - once you know that when you get past the first minute and a half it becomes so much more than just the beat :pac: a great find! :D

    (Blame Shane's randomiser for the draw with Cafe Del Mar, and I doubt I'm the only one who nommed it, so I am doubly shirking responsibility! ;))

    That Energy 52 song is one of the all time great dance tunes. No shame in losing to that one :D

    Glad you liked Purple Haze. Always reminds me of a brilliant night out I had :D

    Given a lot of the tracks are circa 8 minutes long, is 1 hour a little short for voting time (for everyone bar levar of course) :pac:

    But before we get into Round 2 proper later today let's have a little fun first.

    That's right it's time for...

    giphy.gif?cid=790b76112e418462e989cb5247979a9051cbc0f7915c2f6c&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g

    Is there a song that wasn't nominated that you think is a glaring omission?

    Post the song below.

    The song that gets the most thanks by start of play Tuesday enters the tournament as a wildcard and will face whatever two songs that are unlucky enough to draw last in Round 2.
