Sadly nothing to do with DM but a song by a solo artist or band who have had a number one hit single. The songs you nominate must not have made it to the top 100 singles chart but must be from the album that had a number one hit.

Thanks Val for the gentle push. :-)

OK by me. They're just words.

We've had a profanity theme before, no-one objected then so should be fine.

[Val]

Jemma wrote: "Theme 395 - Going Strong After 70 - Any Song old or new from any era - Jemma ..."

Does the artist/song need to be older than 70? After 1970? Sorry if I'm being thick, just not sure of your intention.

[theDuke]

I think it's artists who are over 70 still making music, Val.

[Jemma]

Val - Sorry bit misleading must be the heat. I meant singers 70 yrs and older. 🤪

[Val]

Thanks Jemma - I thought that must be what you meant, Just wanted to be sure.

And just for further clarification - when you say "Any song old or new from any era" does that mean, for instance, a track from Roger Daltrey or Robert Plant recorded in the 60s or 70s, not just something they've recorded since turning 70?

No worries Val. Yeah, any song old or new from any era. I think there’s a lot of music we’ve possibly not tapped into because it’s usually the hits that’s nommed so pick whatever song takes your fancy might get some oldies nommed we haven’t heard before.
I was amazed at how many over 70’s are are still on the road - good on them I say. 😃

One final clarification Jemma (sorry!) Would you like if the person was still alive at time of nomming, or can we pick someone who was still making music when in their 70s or later, but has since died?

[Jemma]

Hi Tim. Alive or dead ... opps!! No, seriously yes to all you’ve posted as long as the singer/singers reached that wonderful age doesn’t matter if their here or gone. 👍🤪

[theDuke]

I think it's time to add in the next Wildcard round...it'll be September by the time we get to it.

[Val]

I had originally planned to do it every 20th theme so the next one would be Theme 400; see my post last August

Aug 21, 2022 06:14PM

Val H. | 16616 comments
Thanks Helen for adding in another Wildcard round. The last one was Theme 340 in May. Theme 360 should come up around the end of October so, just to make it easier for me, I suggest we put one in every 20 weeks, so the one after that would be 380.

However, I'm happy to go with this Duke.

[theDuke]

Ah okay...well in that case, it could be renumbered 400, and leave gaps for the 397-99?

[TheFoe]

Would that not be 396-399 then?

As the 80's soundtracks seems to be going down well with the posters, how about 80's TV? If you were going to do this Collette, I'll remove this from the list.

[Val]

Foe - theme tunes only or songs used in the TV series?

[Collette]

Go for it, Foe. I was thinking of maybe adding on 90s movie soundtrack songs or something at a later date.....no bloody imagination, me. 😬

Thanks Val. I didn’t think we had, that’s good. 😀

Sorry Val, only just read your post. I don't see why we can't have songs that were used in the tv series as well. :-)
