Theme 453 - Easy or hard? Any song with either or both of these words in the title. NO comparatives (easier, hardest), just the four letter word. - Val - VOTING - closes MIDNIGHT Sunday March 30th

[Val]

My turn and hopefully this will be "easy". Song titles only containing either or both of the four letter words "easy" or "hard".

The next FIVE themes are:

Theme 454 - "Hall of Shame" - "stalker" songs e.g. the creepy "always watching you" sort and the "I'll get you and keep you, whatever you want" sort. Reversing the usual idea, so vote for the worst offender. - Isabella
Theme 455 - "I ??... 1987. " Songs from your favourite albums of '87. (Singles released either side of said year are fine) - Collette.
Theme 456 - "Wot No Royalties?!" - Music released by artists/bands/musicians copyright free. - Das Duke
Theme 457 - “A kiss is just a kiss” - Songs with kiss, kisses, kissed or kissing in the title. - KJS
Theme 458 - Theme 458 - "Do Wah Diddy Diddy Dum Diddy Don't" - Song titles containing either (or both) of the words "do" or "don't" - Helen

Am I the first person to notice the message at the end of the playlist that says, "1 unavailable video is hidden", and the fact that the video for the Röyksopp track is missing?

Val I'd really like to vote on this but I'm going to miss the midnight deadline, is there any chance you can wait for me please? It shouldn't be too long after.

[theDuke]

Val generally doesn't close the voting straight after midnight, so i think you'll be okay Nick. I only just remembered to get my votes in with 90 minutes remaining!

[TheFoe]

Cheers Duke. :-)

Probably a bit lat..."

When I compile the playlist I know how many videos there should be and in this case I see a total of 28 videos and at the top of the screen it says "1 unavailable video is hidden". If I press the three dots, there is a prompt to "Show unavailable videos" and that one (or more) then shows in the playlist but the message at the top of the screen now changes to "Unavailable videos will be hidden during playback". I often have one or more videos blocked but I usually assume this is because the southern hemisphere is geo-blocked and I just hope you people up north can still see it. Obviously this wasn't the case this time around. If I notice it in future (no guarantees) I'll point it out when I post the playlist.

Sorry KJS wasn't able to vote this round but the consolation is he takes out the quinella with 39 votes for The Seeds catapulting them into first place. And 34 votes for Jack Nitzsche ft. Captain Beefheart. Well done!! Nick's votes tipped Helen into third place with 32 votes for New Model Army. Good work everyone

The other consolation is that Grimmy earns his second wooden spoon and he doesn't have to worry about which two tracks to nominate for the Cream of Wooden Spoons theme to come (No. 476) - no love for Easy Now by Eric Clapton.

[Grimmy]

Hooray! Back in the day I used to collect wooden spoons on a regular basis. It's great to get my new collection going!

All 28 tracks of the playlist were available for me.
Röyksopp track is at 'track 23' in it's original place

[TheFoe]

I might be wrong but isn't Derek based abroad, that might be why.

Same for me.

You're right, I'm currently at my main place of residence in France, just checked and the video is unavailable here, so it's just me.

[Val]

And me!
