I understood it as title = Under the hood.
Explanation = component of a car.

So the “under the hood” part isn’t a requirement, whereas the “component of a car” is.

For example, if I had a theme titled:

“Ramases Niblick The Third - song titles featuring characters or places in Red Dwarf episodes”,

The Ramases bit is not part of the requirement - it’s just a snappy title.

Happy to be told I’m wrong though.

[Brass Neck]

Yer not wrong. We're a broad church and I'm particularly liberal with the interpretation of my themes.

[theDuke]

I deleted me post..my thinking on the under the hood part, i forgot about the other bit of the title.

[theDuke]

Okay...good evening folks.

A slight drop in numbers this week, but 15 car component based songs we do have, thus we keep the 5 vote system in play.

The playlist link is here - dammit, there's something wrong with the file address thingy that won't copy & paste. Go to Duncan's channel & it's the latest playlist - https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCmq66K...

Right okay, sorry about that. I can't seem to get the link to connect to the playlist for some reason....boffins at You Tube have been messing around with things again. Oddly though, i can get the playlist up on YT..but not after C&Ping the link on here. I'll see if i can find a roundabout way to fix it.

Why can't they just bloomin' well leave things alone?! Bah Humbug.

Edit: Now fixed....there was an issue when C&Ping the link over to here. I swear the Google techies make these changes to YT, just to p*ss the users off!

Evening all.

And it feels like DeJa Vu for this week..as last week's podium winners get to stand again! A different order though. 11 votes from 15 noms leaves this overall scores means many of nominations scored single figures again...except for a couple storming way ahead in to the distance...so we have supremely clear winner, which is;

Assault & Battery/The Golden Void by Hawkwind. That song took the lions share with 25 smacking points, meaning last week's number two is now number one, it's Gordon. Nice choice sah.

A few point further back, but still well ahead of the rest of the competition is the trio from Tiger Bay in Taffy land, with 19 points it's In The Grip Of A Tyrefitter's Hand by Budgie, thus Tim advances his position to 2nd this week, and finally once again..there's another triple tie for third place! Woss g'wan darn there?!

All on 14 points apiece, they are:

Last week's winner Mr BN gets another standing, albeit lower down the rankings with Draw Your Brakes -by Scotty - nom'd by Brass Neck, Helen joins him with her nom The Wheel - Spear Of Destiny, and last week's 3rd placer is a non mover with Gear Jammer - George Thorogood & The Destroyers - nom'd by KJS.

Well done all of you..too, but especially to Gordon.

And like last week, but this time Nick can breathe a sigh of relief, there's another wooden spooner. This time it's Serial that claims the kitchen utensil for his nomination Up The Bracket by The Libertines. Maybe he could hang that spoon on that bracket then?!

Right...it's back..the cream of rounds are next.
