I think in an excess of enthusiasm I volunteered for this one and Cowparsleyman is up for next month.

Hope your Halloweens went well and you are getting fired up for the next highlight - the prospect of voting ...

... for these songs.

Lordy, though, it was a productive month and lots of songs to listen to. I chose a shortlist of 5 that I liked most (that was my only rule). Lots of variety on show.

Let's keep it simple - one vote for your favourite to me by PM by midnight on Saturday 16th November 2019. Nominees need to vote to win!

My nominees are (in alphabetical order):

Distance   http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=16956.0
https://soundcloud.com/sebastianandme/distance

Find a Sunny Spot   http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=16987.0
https://soundcloud.com/paulcanuck/find-a-sunny-spot

No More Tears   http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=16938.0
https://soundcloud.com/monnodb/no-more-tears

The Blues Don't   http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=16972.0
https://soundcloud.com/nooms-1/thebluesdontnoomsconnor/s-xe69V

The Moment   http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=16990.0
https://soundcloud.com/knmac/the-moment

Just so you know, I deliberately did not include John PompeyJazz's Without you Girl, even though it's a superb track by any measure, as I didn't feel it should be "judged" in a songwriting competition.

Good luck all!

Cheers
Adam

Receiving loads of votes - this may be a record month. All nominees have votes. Only a few more days to go.

Excellent songs and easy to vote - so let's get everyone (oldies and newbies) voting!

Thanks everyone who voted so far!

oh okay
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

And there you have it.
