Are we allowed the Good the Bad and the Queen, or is no Clash link allowed?

If it is allowed then I nominate Ribbons off Merrie Land.
Yes that is allowed as precedent was set with BAD nominated in an earlier round.

Oh thank god, when I had already earmarked Magazine, I was going to plead for somebody else to nominate this.

Here’s the conundrum, do you go for a song you think is great even thought suspect it will tank on here (so a waste of time / nomination) or do I go for a lesser song that will have more board appeal.
I have 2 in particular for track 9!!!!

Nominate what you like and then change the rules until it wins!

That's what happened for this round. One of my favourite songs is by the Trashcan Sinatras, but I know it wouldn't get a sniff, so I went with These New Puritans, which I would probably have greater appeal.

Libertines or Verve aren’t exactly board favourites but the 2 tracks I want are good enough for this album but lack of support will hold them back.
Can’t chose between The Boy Looked At Johnny or Lucky Man?????

I tell you what, if you can see your way to Paranoid rightfully making it on here I'll vote for any other song you like.

I'm nominating "Tiger" by ABBA. We need some female representaion and this is ABBA's best song that wasn't a single.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board
