Evening all,

Onwards we go, now to Helen's theme - Music from computer/video games. I must confess, not having played computer games in some 2 decades now, I haven't the foggiest idea what to nom for this round...so, for those like me, that could do with a little help on this, I'd appreciate it if Helen could provide some pointers, thanks!

Nominations with YT link to be submitted by Wednesday 15th 10pm. Cheers.

[Spacepig]

I scored! I have never played a computer game, couldn't name a single track. Then a couple of weeks ago I found out that this band is coming to play in town, done a little dig to see what they were like, and discovered they have just recently done one which qualifies:

Through The Valley - Shawn James & The Shapeshifters (The Last of Us 2)

[theDuke]

Lucky you! :)

I've found the soundtrack of the last game I ever played.....Crash Bandicoot! Somehow...I don't think folks will want to hear that one!

[Val]

What I know about computer games can be written on a grain of rice with a Sharpie. Some judicious googling gave me this one.

EDIT: I googled computer game songs in case that helps anyone. Loads of lists.

Taken from Radio Soulwax in GTA 5. If anyone's stuck for a song I'd recommend typing in all songs from GTA games, everything from heavy metal, soft rock, pop, alternative music, hip hop and more.

[Helen The Melon]

Wasn't sure how many would take part in this theme, so thanks to those that have done so far. Val's suggestion is the best really, just google music from computer games and have a trawl through what comes up.

Derek, HtB were a band featuring Corin Tucker (now of Sleater-Kinney).

Thanks for that Tim, never liked Sleaater-Kinney much but I do have a Corin Tucker Band album. Couldn't listen to the track as we're having a week in Wales this week and I've no headphones with me.

For any fish & chips aficionados out there we highly recommend The Shed Fish & Chip Bistro at Porthgain if you're ever in the vicinity. Went tonight and voted it our second best fish & chips ever. First place goes to somewhere we can't remember the name of in Nova Scotia:-)

Well...I've searched dozens of possibilities, many appear to be symphony composed scores, others are electronica...all sounding very similar to one another....& of those that are genuine songs....this was the only one I could find that I liked. Apparently, MLB '09 is some baseball based computer game.

Hi folks,

I'm going to keep the noms & voting phases on the same thread...cos it's occurred to me that we don't need two separate threads, as the heading can be edited. Makes it far easier to check who nom'd what....and I don't have to contend with the triple damned 'I'm not a robot' thingy! It wouldn't have worked as well on Zon..but here..it'll look tidier to have one thread per week per artist, instead of two near identical (headings) cluttering up the list of threads. I don't know about you, but i'm forever clicking on the wrong ones on goodreads, as near duplicate threads blur into one another on here!

[Grimmy]

good idea

[Spacepig]

[Lez]

Excellent idea, I often go to the wrong one.

[theDuke]

Okey doke..that's what we'll do then!

Noms over....and here we go, straight to voting!

Evening all peeps, not as many this week, but I suspect some of you had struggled with this one, as I did. So 15 songs it is, giving us errrr...um..5 votes each, I think? (I see what you mean, Nick!)

Voting ends 10pm Sunday.

Voting over.

Well! When the first nom was submitted on Wednesday..i gave it a listen or two..and thought to myself....hmmm..this could be a winner! Whatta ya know...it is!

Kudos & congratulations to Spacepig for picking the winning song, 'Through The Valley by Shawn James & The Shapeshifters', scoring a decent 23 points.

Just half a horse behind him....it's those punkers, 'Blitzkrieg Bop by The Ramones', scoring 20 points...so well done Brass Neck...and galloping closely behind him and taking the third spot is...

...'Busy Earnin' by Jungle', earning a respectable 18 points, nominated by Grimmy.

Well done chaps...some good songs there.

But we're not done yet..as I gotta get the bucket of wooden spoons out...since Crush 40 scored......zip!

Hard luck Jemma...here's ya complimentary wooden spoon! :)

Cool :-) Glad to see that some of you enjoyed that one.

I am off to see this band next weekend, but if you are in Edinburgh or Newcastle, they are playing there tomorrow and Tuesday, reckon you could do a lot worse than pop along and see what they are like live if you have the chance.

Nobody ever comes to Wales! :(

[TheFoe]

Or Dorset.

[Lez]

Or Falkirk. When they really push the boat out, they’ll have a tribute band of a tribute band.
I have to get the train to Edinburgh or Glasgow and sometimes stay the night if it’s likely to finish too late.

Thanks Dunk, I’ll bake a cake! 🍰 😊

Just don't tell Suzy, Jemma! :)
