Ooh tricky, I love long anthemic stuff like the Seer track but Hayseed Dixie! It's not "Maybe I was born to die in France" or "Set myself on fire" but Hayseed! |

Not a bad tune amoungst them. Nice work, everyone involved. The Seer song really, really reminds me of The Asphalt World. |

With round two being all cover versions (and as such, even when you've not heard of each act being nominated, the songs are likely to strike a familiar tone), it's going to get even better. This is a very good thing. |

I hadn't heard of most of them. That Revolte song was ace though!! |

I'll always be in love with John Cale's Paris 1919. I'll have to wait 'till Sunday night for most of my voting though. Off out in Weston-Super-Mare Friday night and all Saturday - lord help me. |

Sorry, I've just thrown my Soupy Sales record out of the window, I'd always assumed that his Muck-Arty Park was an original, now I know that it is a Weird Al Yankovich style specific parody of MacArthur Park.

Hello, I picked a.P.A.t.T because of its wonderful tale of stalking, skull fuckery and reliefing oneself in a dead girls face. I was sure that alone would at least get me 1 point from everyone and its catchy as fuck, your all broken. Also I can see his voice being a turn off but how else are you meant to sing those lyrics? |

Well, I liked it - it got a point from me. I've nothing interesting to add about Paris 1919, except that I've loved it since the first time I heard it (so I thought it might work well on here, as it doesn't seem to need repetition or familiarity to gain affection), and I'm going to have it as part of the pre-ceremony music at my wedding on Saturday. |

Hey, congratulations Nik! If I'd known, an ace theme would have been "suggest a song for Nik's wedding". |
