Hello dear Aphasians,
The time for voting the songs of the Group A is now expired.
I thank you all for dedicating some of your precious time to this game and for all the very interesting contributions. You´ve been awesome and your partecipation overwhelming! You're so many!
Was it because I clarified that I don’t sell encyclopedia?
Damn, I knew I had to say that also in the old battle…
Jokes apart, people, it´s great to have you all here and I really hope that you will stay with us and enjoy the game until the end. It’s not by chance, in fact, that the famous sea captain Francis Drake used to say:
“There must be a beginning of any great matter but the continuing unto the end, until it be thoroughly finished, yields the true glory”. Maybe Sir Drake is a bit obscure in his saying but I would translate that with a simple "keep on voting!"
And now, without any further ado let’s take a look at the
final rank of Group A:Seven doors hotel: 18
Days of rock ‘n’ roll: 18
Prelude + Last look at Eden: 16
Wasted time: 16
Nothin’ to ya: 15
Let the good times rock: 13
Firebox: 13
Spirit of the underdog: 12Halfway to Heaven: 7
Wish I could believe: 7
Little bit of lovin’: 6
Time has come: 4
Broken dreams: 3
Catch that plane: 2
Farewell: 2So, the first eight songs go on to phase two!
And every single voter (except one) has included 7doors and Days of rnr in his/her selection, what an astonishing result!
It seems that
Eva Tomorrow’s campaign for the final triumph of SDH is being fruitful. But don’t declare victory too soon! It’s still an early phase and the road is still long.
And the two songs from War of Kings, they seem already very dear to the fans. LLAE missed some votes at the beginning (almost causing me a heart attack) but then it took off pretty well. Very good result for Wasted time and Let the good times rock too, while for Firebox and Spirit of the underdog it’s been a little bumpier road. But the important thing, for the moment, was to go on and they did it. We’ll see them all again in phase two.
Regarding the songs that didn’t make it, what can I say? “Little bit of lovin'” didn’t actually catch that plane to phase two, it stopped just halfway to heaven and now the time has come to say farewell to it. I wish I could believe it can still be saved but, deep inside, I know that they’re only broken dreams.
Ok, now we have another job to do. Opening the voting session for
Group B. Here’s the list of songs of the group:
The king will return
Lyin’ eyes
The final countdown
Ninja
Superstitious
Bad blood
Mr. Government man
Wake up call
Roll with you
The getaway plan
Let the children play
Run with the angels
Bring it all home
Drink and a smile
Praise youWell, well, well…what do we have here? I spot some pretty BIG songs! And some cool outsiders, too! Is the rank self-decided or there will be some surprises? To help you with the selection, if you need it, here’s a youtube playlist with all the songs of the group (alphabetical order):
Enjoy the music, as loud as possible,
