Better late than never I have belatedly listened and made the selection, which should be showing in the header post in a few minutes with usual instructions etc.
Thanks for persevering with my incompetence and Alan for his support

Hey there Neil......thanks for the generous nod  ;D
I had to email you my three picks, because I couldn't seem to get the P.M to work.
Hope you got my message.
Thanks, again!

Hey  Neil dude, you have weird but obviously impeccable  taste including me in this cluster.  Thanks man for the vote of confidence.
Neil I dont think everyone on that list is aware they are in this Song of the Month thing, or they don't care.
 Maybe you should PM everyone. I aint gonna vote for someone who dont care. I'm holding off my vote ATM.

Congratulations Paulski. What a fab song as were the other entries. Thanks for hosting Neil. I'm so glad you got back from the shops.  I had this horrible thought that you had accidentally fallen into a freezer full of rancid turkeys  ;D

Hey Paulski, well done man.
I was stoked to be in the running.  Mainstream acceptance is a weird but sort after thing, y'know.
Dont you guys do 2nd, 3rd, and fourth here?

Well that was not expected given the pick-seed nature of my song and the quality of the other horses in the race  ;D Are you sure there wasn't voter fraud? What about all those unregistered voters in California (some of which are DEAD?).
Regardless, I humbly accept the outcome and offer thanks to all who put their X beside Lonelyville!!

Paul  ;D ;D

I decry FRAUD!!!
T'was the spirit of Christmas Charity that won this trophy!!
And, to think your's was one of my picks! I guess that makes me a martyr to my own charity  :o

 ;D.........Great song Paul  8)
