Re: Mr Desert Island

Yeah, I think with the new version of phpBB3, we need to be more aggressive about checking the "allow re-votes" toggle when creating a post (assuing we want to allow re-votes).

I went wit the Marvelettes and Devo. I also think that would have been a killer double-bill to see.

Who else did you want, in the event it may count as a tiebreaker?

Fun one, mister.

Went with Brownstone and Blue Sky, just because.

Re: Mr Desert Island

I like the concept of a 'theme' desert island choice.

I went with Jones and Tambourine Man (even though I'd prefer the Dylan original).

Re: Mr Desert Island

I went with Kite and Tambourine Man. I would have liked Pleasant by the Kinks to be there as well.

Re: Mr Desert Island

Looks like my votes for the Byrds and ELO are putting those Misters over the top.

Not the gayest song on the list, by any stretch of the imagination.

I would have liked Pleasant by the Kinks to be there as well.


That's one I genuinely didn't think of.

Others missing:
Mr Moonlight (The best version is by the Beatles, it was a cover, and the Beatles are already represented by #7 & 8)
Mr. Big Stuff: Jean Knight
Mr Ed (Theme Song): Jay Livingston

Re: Mr Desert Island

Me!
(That's me voting for "Mr. Postman"!)
Love!
(Lo-o-ove "Mr. Postman"!)

"Mr. Postman's" fun as Hell!
(Oh, yeah!)
And the lyrics --- they don't smell!
(Don't smell!)
First Motown song at the top of the charts!
(Oh, yeah!)
I voted for it over all of those farts!

Re: Mr Desert Island

I'm not sure I understand this thread but if I'm supposed to pick two from above as my stranded on a desert island songs, I'd rather bash my head inside out with a coconut. They do have coconuts?

Why does Willets have a new list of songs?

I did. "Please Mr. Postman" is easily the best of the songs listed above.
