Nice idea for a spin-off.

OMG :wub: I LOVE that idea :heart: 1992 :heart:

Ooh good. ^_^

 

The problem with that would be that the older participants might be at a disadvantage because they have to pick older songs. On the plus side, they'll have the most choice, unlike those born from 1989-91. (which I expect would be the most common years)

Oh LOL I was actually thinking about sending a Mariah song, but not "Obsessed". Then again, a 19 year old track would probably flop hard.

 

But I just had a brain wave for the next spin off (since y'all hate on remixes). The year you were born? :magic: Since we're in our teens (or older) that means most of the songs would be deemed 'too old' for the main contest and therefore something that might suit being a spin off?

 

The only down sides I can see is that I doubt most of us will know or listen to songs from our birth year that wouldn't be seen as cheap. Mine wouldn't be, but if I couldn't use Mariah I'd be lost. :lol:

 

I love this idea. :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: Quite frankly I don't care if it means sending something prehistoric to the ears of most of you, because to me that is the whole point of spin offs: to send something you would not normally consider sending in a normal contest.

 

Note: In reality I would send something different:

 

T-Rex - Get It On :heart:

 

As it is a spin off I'm up for anything, as I treat it like an International Football Manager treats a friendly, it is the time to really experiment.

 

I was born in 1987, but wouldn't send something obvious like Always On My Mind by Pet Shop Boys, I'd try and search a little deeper...

 

nice idea by the way

I'm SO going to send Snap! - Rhythm Is A Dancer from 1992 :heart:

1983 - Madonna-Like A Virgin :kink:

This is what I meant by people going for the cheaper options in their year. :heehee: It's hard not to know anything, other the big hits, from when you were younger than one year old.

ANYWAY, Kopecka will be taking precautionary measures and reserving Mariah, Shakira, Girls Can't Catch and others...

I will fight you for them.

I don't like it tbh :( I hardly know and interested to find songs from 1989.
I'm 1989, so i fall in the common group lol.

 

Good idea tho,

Paula Abdul - Straight Up :wub:

I would be in the 1991 area........I looked it up on wikipedia for 1991 songs and I didn't recognise any of the songs by there names :lol:

 

Maybe if I heard them though....

I remember when i was about 9 i used to listen to the radio VERY MUCH but without learning song's names. That's why i know all the lyrics of song were popular back to these days but couldn't say how they're called :lol:

 

Maybe a "1998" spin-off :wub:

On separate note - a male spin-off - with "it-could-be-used-in-a-normal-contest" attitude i doubt we will get one :lol:

 

So... I think I'm enterring Patrick Wolf for the next contest. And yes, it will be 'Tristan', Tron :magic:

1991...

 

Massive Attack - Be Thankful For What You've Got ?

R.E.M. - Losing My Religion ?

This is what I mean. I doubt many people are interested in music pre-2000, so it probably wouldn't go down so well. -_-

 

On another note, tickets for Beverley Knight's next UK tour went on general sale yesterday. If anyone was hoping to see the amazing live vocals that won BJSC VI in the flesh, you now can, coming to a hall near you this November. :kink:

I hate songs from the late 80s :( I think no matter what I chose I'd not properly be able to get behind it.

Yeah, let's remember here that we're probably not going to have another spin-off until next February :P

Why do that after Christmas day?

 

People have suggested Christmas spin-offs in the past though but I kind of like being able to enter Christmas songs in the real thing...regardless of whether they do well :P
