Oh g'wan then, 'ere's a good song that's gone around .... many, many times;O Superman

i love 'o superman', and rate it one of the greatest ever singles. when doing my p.o. training in Lanark in 1982, we used the same pub/hotel each lunchtime, and i jukeboxed 'o superman' twice a day. after a couple of weeks the legend on the 'box proclaimed 'this record has been removed and snapped in two'!

Luckily, our barman had the sense (and the taste) to never let that song anywhere near his pub.

5 voters for the 6 noms, and a close finish.Two songs finished on 7 points, but with two max pointers to one, Jemma takes the gold with Muddy River. The silver goes to Tim for Speak My Language. O Superman finished a point behind so it's the bronze for Brass Neck.
No wooden spoons this week.
Just the seven albums since her first in 1982, the most recent being in 2010, but there should be enough good songs to go around.
Noms to be in by 10 pm Sunday evening if you can, leave a link to your nom, and drop by next week to cast your votes and finish the game off if you can.
Enjoy your weekend however you choose to spend it.
