Title: July SOTM - Voting Now Open.
Post by: MichaelA on August 05, 2018, 01:16:47 PM
With difficulty, I have now picked out the tunes I would like to nominate for July Song of the Month. Looking back at previous contests I saw that members had to have 100 posts to qualify - so this has been applied.

Other rule: if you are nominated, you also have to vote to also qualify. Last month most of the votes came in early, so I think we can sort this out over the next two weeks. You therefore have until midnight of Sunday (GMT) 19th August to vote.


Please PM me with your single winner only - and confirm you have voted here, which keeps the thread alive, and informs me in case a PM gets lost in the system.


Some cool tunes here! (Sorry to those who narrowly missed out, tough choice!) …...Drum roll: …..

Never mind this new fad Short Song Competition that is getting all the attention! This competition is much better as you can actually vote NOW - not in October!  ;D

But now that the first five voters have got the ball rolling I am sure I am going to be inundated with so many more votes! Yes, yes...

And now I can see one song is already edging clear with an amazing total of THREE VOTES. Wow, this is exciting! Can the early front runner be caught? Maybe...but your vote can make all the difference, you do the math...so lets be 'avin' yer!!!

One song is winning by just one vote!

Two songs are in joint second place.

If you haven't voted, well your vote will probably make a difference!

VOTING CLOSES THIS SUNDAY 19th MIDNIGHT, see OP.

Just less than 12 hours to get your votes in folks!

All songs have received votes in this very close run thing.

One song is in the lead - but by just one vote!

And two songs are in joint second - how close is that?!

I will announce the winner around lunch time tomorrow.  ;D

It couldn't be closer guys. Last 3 hours or so to vote as I type.

One more vote could swing it either way across three songs!

Michael  ;)
