Okay, here we go. But first, I just wanna say--the hardest part of this job is leaving out songs that so totally deserve to be in the finals! :'( I have a list of ten songs I consider to be the top contenders. And there's at least six more that are right up there, in my estimation. So, basically, I have to condemn at least 11 songs that should be in the running before you even get to see my list. <<sigh>>
Anyway, here is your voting list. And I know you would probably have included different songs. So many awesome choices. Okay, I need to quit waffling around and make the final cuts.
Here they are in no particular order (well, maybe alphabetical). Choose your top three from the following list and PM to me your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices for Song of the Month by January 15th.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If your song is on the list, you must vote to be in the running. Only songs from members with 100 or more posts were considered.

Oh man! This was grueling. I wish I could add at least five more....

I have now edited the voting list into my first post (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=12354.0). You have until the 15th to peruse and PM your vote to me.
Narrowing it down to five was NOT at all easy, and all five choices could just as legitimately been different songs. I counted 31 eligible songs total in December! Of those, at least half would be appropriate choices for Song of the Month, IMHO. I hope I included at least one of your favorites in the final five.

Great picks, Vicky. I've voted and so should everyone!

Voting has taken off nicely and one song has bounded out in front of the pack already! :o Keep 'em coming!
-
Only 11 voting days left! ;D After that first wonderful surge of votes, voting activity has dropped dramatically. Don't leave it till the last minute! Get your vote in!

Well I had a clear top 3, but tough to choose between them. All done though! Thks for hosting Vicki!!!
-
Thanks for the boost, Scott!
And this is another reminder--you now have one week to get your votes in. Remember--you who are in the short list--you need to vote to be eligible!
There are 9 votes so far. Surely we can at least double that! Or maybe triple! :o You have until midnight (your time) the 15th to vote. PM me your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices. I'm waiting....

Stick up a reminder in the busiest section of the forum, "finished songs", Vicki. Some folk who may vote don't ever vist the competition part.
-
Thanks for the tip, Skub. I'll do that.
-
Great selection Vicki all winners, my vote is sent.
-
I have cast my ballot - good luck to all!

My vote is in, too. December was clearly a great month!
