Val H. | 22290 comments Should be easy - song titles only and they must include an apostrophe, hopefully a grammatically correct one or else we'll have the ghost of Lez admonishing us.

The next five themes are:

Theme 376 - Doin' Dylan - any Bob Dylan cover - Val
Theme 377 - "Horsin' Around" - Songs about horses, be it in the title or lyrics..your choice. - thedoo doo doo Duke
Theme 378 - The The - Songs titles beginning with "The" by bands/artists that officially begin with the word "The" - Helen
Theme 379 - Rolling Stone has listed its 200 Best Singers of All Time. Who did they miss out? - Val

Theme 380 - Wildcard Round 16

Val H. | 22290 comments Another theme done. Hope everyone's enjoying the long Easter break - 6 voters from our 10 nominees. But that may well have worked in my favour as I take out first place with 16 votes for the ethereal voice of Colin Blunstone. Duke gets second with 13 votes for Southern Culture On The Skids and there's a tie for third between FishyJim with Wire and SussexWelsh with The Calico Wall - both on 12 votes. Wooden spoons making their way to Tim (Frank Zappa), Collette (Bryan Adams) and Sussex (Katy J Pearson). Back soon.

On nomming, certainly. Needed to be certain of no intrusive ads popping up part way through as I've endured with other lengthy songs. 😠 When listening, until the early stages of 'Ikhnaton and Itsacon and their band of merry men'.

I've got something called 1Blocker. Doesn't stop ads on YT sadly. Some videos are appalling; an 8 minute video (not music) got interrupted four or five times. Grrrrr!
