I’m about a quarter of the way through listening and I already know there will be some tough decisions ahead!

[SKT]

On the road from Amarillo to Santa Fe today…giving me time to dive in.

[Tago Mago]

really difficult to narrow it down to 12 songs

[GraemeE]

I'm interested to see who grabbed my first choice of songs from Versailles

[Matt]

I have a pretty good guess as to who took Draize Train before me @Steve

[GraemeE]

LOVE that autechre song- "sad/pretty" is one of my all time favorite musical vibes

Pedal steel version that made the rounds a few years back

[T4920]

@GraemeE

That's such a unique interpretation, I love this harp version too.

[GraemeE]

@T4920 Tommib by squarepusher tends to hit the same "fuzzy feelings" for me - similarly out of character for the majority of his work as well

[T4920]

@GraemeE I'll be sure to check that out, thanks!

[T4920]

I'll echo the sentiment that this was a bastard to narrow down to 12 tracks... Really enjoyed the majority of these! Might be blasphemy to some, but I've never vibed with Bowie's voice, so the track submitted here was perfect haha

[Graham]

So sorry for the delay team, I will get my votes in in the next few hours. xx

@goosehd steelworker- gommel

[GraemeE]

@T4920 it is blasphemy but at the same time a completely understandable sentiment

same for me

I am blaming my guilty pleasure choices on having tweens.

[Tago Mago]

there's no such thing as a guilty pleasure

Looking forward to seeing what everyone drags out from the darkest corners of their past (and maybe present) for round 3. I’ve got some catching up to do - not sure if I’ll get better results aiming for pity, amusement or disgust!

[mclaincausey]

Hehe. This will be one where I probably change several times.

I’ve updated the original post on this thread with the latest standings and results.

[mclaincausey]

I just realized that we can change the themes of the future rounds to come, or even remove rounds if we want to. I changed the one from dead artists (most of the best ones being dead, I felt it too broad) to “accursed earworms:” songs that get stuck in your head but you hate them.

Anyway all that said: any creative categories you’d like to recommend?

@mclaincausey i once had the New Kids on the Block song “Hangin’ Tough” in my head for a month straight. I contemplated suicide. In the end, The Ramones saved my life and Beat on the Brat moved into my brain forever more. Alas a happy ending.
