  2. Congratulations to Calum on a first BJSC win! Thanks to uhsting for hosting. I'm happy with 14th place, thanks to all those who gave points to Fire On High. If anyone is wondering what the backwards message is, you can hear it on the clip below. It was spoken by drummer Bev Bevan who had the right deep voice for this sort of thing. ELO got into trouble with religious people in America who accused them of devil worship for putting backwards messages in some of their songs. lzmeKHv5k3o
  3. Which of those will I vote for?
  4. Thanks Mack for the 12 points. :cheer:
  5. Thanks to all who have given points to Rolloland so far, especially Eastovka for the 10.

    And he's won the final. He was 6-4 4-0 up but lost five games in a row before recovering to win the second set 7-5.
  7. No, Brer is away for the day.
  8. Now Those Days Are Gone was a beautiful song and an interesting change of direction with more than a minute at the start being acapella. I never really liked Da Da Da.
  9. Up to five votes now. There is one week left.

  12. Happy Talk and Abracadabra are both good additions to the top 10. I'd forgotten that Happy Talk had such a massive climb in one week.

  18. 22nd - 28th October 1964 18. Sha La La - Manfred Mann A simple song with simple lyrics. That won't stop it from being another big hit for them. The Shirelles recorded the original version. 29. He's In Town - The Rockin' Berries The first top 40 hit for the Birmingham band, their first three singles all missed out but this cover of a Goffin & King written song by The Tokens will go as high as number 3. There are some nice harmonies here with the lead singer in the high register and the others lower down. 33. Any Way You Want It - The Dave Clark Five I like the driving rhythm to this and there's some echo added to parts of the vocal. 34. Google Eye - The Nashville Teens Their second hit is another John D. Loudermilk cover but it's not as distinctive as the first one, 'Tobacco Road'. 35. Walk Tall - Val Doonican A debut hit at the age of 37 in the same year as he's given his first BBC1 TV series. It's an OK country song about ending up in prison after he doesn't listen to his mother's advice. 36. It Hurts To Be In Love - Gene Pitney This doesn't sound like a typical Gene Pitney song and I now see that it's a Neil Sedaka recording with his lead vocal replaced by Gene's, everything else was kept in. 38. Losing You - Dusty Springfield Another great vocal from Dusty who gives this plenty of welly. 40. Is It Because - The Honeycombs This is not as good as their number 1 single but it deserved a higher peak than number 38. There were some typical Joe Meek embellishments on the production. Record of the week : 24. Baby Love - The Supremes It's a busy week for new music but there's still no hesitation in the award going to the Supremes with this classic. It's just so catchy and I also like the saxophone parts. They will have plenty of Billboard number 1s but this will be their only UK chart topper. MxWV8vf3h-Q
  19.

  20. I've added the Spotify playlist to the opening post. The only version of song 18, 'Devil Mood', on Spotify is 4.30 long. The youtube video submitted is 9.01 long.
  21. Oops, none of us spotted that! We'll ask whoever it was to replace it with something else.
  22. Round 1: 18 Didn't get Round 2: 33 Didn't get 3 in 10: 3
  23. The Beatles - The Long And Winding Road Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water Carpenters - (They Long To Be) Close To You Edwin Starr - War Bread - Make It With You Worst: The Osmonds - One Bad Apple
  24. It's up to each person really, depending on how much time they want to devote to the task.
