No problem Tina, a vote from you in the next round will be thanks enough for me.

Thanks Jeff.

That's warmed my heart.

People were quick to snipe, but the Culture Cup was f*cking rapid compared to this.

And funnier.

Julius has just given round 1 a shot in the arm with some masterful use of sarcasm.

Can I take part in this or is it too late now?

No you havent!

I was just going to pick brown eyed bum for you by Van Morrison

(can you send please!)

by Adam D Tue Aug 18, 2015 9:28 am

ANd Truss hasnt either.

by Adam D Tue Aug 18, 2015 9:33 am

One song has been picked at least 6 times so far.

I might do some witty repartee for the summary of this round. Or I might just hand it back over to Hero to complete the running of the comp. When I asked him to run the movie cup 2013 when I went on holiday, it....lets just say we are still waiting for the next round

Damn it, I knew my pick would be too populist.

If only Jules, if only.

My money was on Yellow Submarine!

by Rowley Tue Aug 18, 2015 9:53 am

Adam is going 99 red balloons, definitely.

by **seanmichaels** Tue Aug 18, 2015 9:56 am

Shah's will be Blue Savannah Song - Erasure

I thought about it, if only for nostalgia!

by Davie Tue Aug 18, 2015 10:29 am

I didn't see the request for round 3 picks until I found it hidden away in the lead post

You're wrong. I have picked a beauty. A real beauty.

by Samo Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:17 am

I bet any money that I sell myself out to pick what I think will be the more popular choice, only to find out my other two picks have been chosen are crush the one I used. Like this round.

Is it a song I will like Tina, as I know you're going to see me right and throw me a sympathy vote this round I want to be able to return the favour.

I think you will. That's why I was first in with the choice. It's a song I dearly love and it just so happened to fit the criteria.

Adam has already promised me his vote.

by **seanmichaels** Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:22 am

My choice is another mid 90's beauty. Doubt it will do as well as round 2 though

It was also first choice for about 5 other people! I havent told them so hopefully they will think its their first choice and vote for it. It deserves to do well.

My all time favourite song hasnt been picked yet.

And a song by my favourite band hasnt been picked which would be a great pick.

Would Navy count as a colour to allow Adam to have In The Navy?

If Bittersweet is being accepted as a food/drink then I think you could make a case.

by Stella Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:36 am

Prince could play a big part in this round, not that I like any of his stuff.

by **JuliusHMarx** Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:40 am

Brown Sugar got 7 votes this round - how many will it get in the next round? More than Blood Red or The Red Hot Chili Peppers, I'll wager.

We will find out the answer in December.

by Roller_Coaster Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:42 am

The final round should be most tenuous link between criteria and entry used in the previous rounds...

Just a thought.

Another Stones song may, and should get more votes.

Not The Last Time you'll use a pun Jules?

by Rowley Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:52 am

I really wish we would not do theme based puns on here. You can't always get what you want though.

by Stella Tue Aug 18, 2015 11:52 am

Ruby's a colour isn't it? Another Stones song title containing a colour. They're catching up with Prince!

Follow the netball world cup Jeff? You've got to have sympathy for the Neville.

She's a rainbow, a good seven colours in that.

Can't think of another Stones pun at the moment. Luckily time is on my side.

A guy goes into a guitar shop and asks for a guitar pick. The man behind the counter gives him a little black triangular piece of plastic. The first guy says "That's not right, there are supposed to be seven colours in the plectrum'.

by Trebs Tue Aug 18, 2015 1:32 pm

Unlike the culture cup, I'm going for my favourite songs rather than being populist.

At least then I've won in my mind irrelevant of the score.

I've still not had a round where I can pick a song by my favourite artist of all time.

Dane Bowers?

by Adam D Tue Aug 18, 2015 2:19 pm

next round is by far the best of the competition so far - some fantastic picks.

Although no one has picked this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7sIzWKHGwQ
