BuzzJack Music Forum _ 20th Century Retro _ ROUND 1: The Beatles - 1 survivor

Posted by: Jade Sep 26 2019, 06:19 PM

Welcome to a brand new throwback survivor following the likes of ABBA and Michael Jackson! This one is centred around a compilation courtesy of the biggest band of all-time, The Beatles. '1' was a 2000 release that features all 27 of their UK & US #1 hits. So, let's delve into some of their biggest songs and hopefully choose wisely. Please vote for your least favourite single out of the above list! The song that receives the most amount of votes will be eliminated.

There's a lot to get through, so this round will be open for a few days!

SO MANY classics! Going to be rooting for 'Eleanor Rigby' to win but this could go any way really.

Voted 'Lady Madonna' for this first round, that one has never really connected with me.

Just gonna be gunning for the pre-psychedelic stuff here, it's just so inferior compared to what came next.

She Loves You first, that's always really annoyed me oop

Gone for Hey Jude, I know it's a classic but it's the only one I don't get too much out of.

Bloody hell this is gonna be a tough one, great to see this finally rolled out.

Gone for The Ballad of John and Yoko, never got into it.

No No No.

Wow! This is gong to be a tough survivor game.

Started off with ‘The Long and Winding Road’.

The only one I don't know is 'Eight Days A Week' so I've just listened to it. It's not great but I decided to vote out 'From Me To You' first.

Thanks for organising jade!

From me to you is the least essential...

Voted Lady Madonna

There are about 4 or 5 songs on here that I'm not super familiar with so I'll probably target them early lol, as I really don't think I'd say I dislike any of the ones I know (even the early cheesy ones have their own appeal although in a very different way to the later ones) ~ I randomly picked 'Lady Madonna' out of the few that I don't know / don't know very well and it turns out that's in the lead so go figure x

This is ridiculously tough right from the start Every one of those songs is very good or better.

I really enjoy Lady Madonna - shame it's leading

Posted by: George.keh Sep 27 2019, 09:06 PM

Lady Madonna has always been one of my favourites
