The Pop Open Seventies RESULTS

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Here are the results for the 70s group - turnout down a bit in part because of the shortened voting time I guess (and relative lack of reminders). Still a close group though (well, past the clear winner)! Congratulations to the qualifiers, commiserations to the losers, thank you all for playing. 80s up tomorrow (if my PC is working).

FIRST PLACE: "Move Me No Mountain" by Dionne Warwick (9 first-place votes, 38% of total points) - mackromackro WINS!

SECOND PLACE: "Nice Mover" by Gina X Performance (5 first-place votes, 24% of total points) - anatol_merklich QUALIFIES!

THIRD PLACE: "I Can't Stand My Baby" by The Rezillos (4 first-place votes, 19% of total points) - lisa_go_blind is OUT!

FOURTH PLACE: "The Ballad Of Arivederci" by Kavaret (2 first-place votes, 19% of total points) - mcatzilut is OUT!

Moar news about the third round: as I said before, it'll be a series of one-on-one votes, and these will be freestyle, i.e. NO THEME - submit anything you like. The details of who is 'battling' who will be revealed after the 00s group finishes.

I think these ended up in the reverse order to how much I liked them! I liked them all though, this was a top round.

No theme, eh? I declare it the MAVERICK round!

[lockedintheatti.livejournal.com]

Hurray! The Dionne track is my favourite Open track so far. Great group all round.

I heartily approve of this freestyle 3rd round noise!

Haha yes finally an opening to use this track I've been dying to use ever since I signed up! ...provided of course I get through this round first. *crosses fingers*

Either today or tomorrow - bit snowed under with work today. I've not forgotten tho!

Ouch, I looze.

Your track entertained many voters I suspect - and might have prospered in a less tough group.

Yeah, from the looks of this, you got more voters, if not more points, than the Rezillos. And this was an excellent round.

[koganbot]

Also, could you say more about Kavaret, who are previously unknown to me?

Work considerations prevented me from giving enough attention to this to vote, but I enjoyed all 4 tracks and am generally happy with the results. Good work, all.

I am looking forward to getting the slaughtering I will take in the 80's round over with.

I was trembling this go at it. anatol, lisa, and mcatz had easily put the phear in me, which is all that matters in the game.

[mackromackro.livejournal.com]

goes with saying, but thank you guys of course. :)

2 x blimey through again! Thought I had somewhat less than 50% chance here after hearing. Thanks to votors & votrixes!

[koganbot]

Sally, if it's any consolation, I'd have voted the Rezillos if I hadn't already heard it.
