Time has come Today...................................................Tick Tock

Chambers Bros! Saw them perform this live at Filmore East, 1st row!

Time has come Today............................................. ......Tick Tock --- AFTR!

When Time Has Come Today was a new tune, it was one of the coolest ones out there. I recall dozing and waking up to the song a few times.

I don't believe I've ever heard the The Who song before, though I might be wrong about that.

I like them both....a lot. A very difficult choice.

Time Has Come Today (and belatedly Doctor My Eyes)

Time Has Come Today !

Time Has Come Today That makes it 6/0

Next:

Van Halen - Why Can't This Be Love



VS

Hush - Deep Purple - YouTube

Hush!!!

Hush.. I wore out that 8 track

Why Can't This be Love?

Why Can't This be Love?

Hard decision, very hard.

Van Halen....just

I would have voted for The Who....so thats 6-1. Chambers Brothers track very good but not one that I grew up with

The Who!

like I said...Van Halen!

Why Can't This Be Love wins 5/3 with my vote.

Next:

Stevie Wonder - You & I



VS

The Beatles - Let It Be

Let it be... I'm so old I can remember the day it came out on the radio. I was in Summer Recreation and I was in a VW beetle, crammed in with three other 10-year-olds and one drop-dead gorgeous blond 20-year-old counselor on the way to go swimming at the reservoir. It was so catchy we were all singing it at the top of our lungs by the end.

Let it Be

Let It Be.

Let it be !

Hush

on edit: Oops, it looks like I fell behind. Let It Be

Given that we are up to ten voters, I don't think we can take 5 as a winning number. I think we need to see 6 votes on a song, now to declare a winner.

And that's not counting our resident tie-breaker.

Okay. The only problem is that the 10 is not really consistent and we may end up waiting a long time unless we also put a time limit on each vote count. Any ideas?

I know I am a bit slow at times but anyway.........

Didn't know either The Who or the Chambers Bros numbers......so

Would have voted for Van Halen.....

Now for the current vote......Let it be is a classic, but You and I by Stevie Wonder is my choice this time

I say, Let it be. Your game, your call.

I don't know the solution but I have managed to miss two votes today...............carry on.

I can only think of maybe putting a 24 hour timer on a selection. If we get a majority before that, move on.

Looks like we would have got that majority later, anyway, so,...

Looks like we would have got that majority later, anyway, so,...We have two more face-offs to end the first round. I'm afraid too many 24-hour long sessions will cause people to lose interest. Weekends are tough because there appears to be a couple that actually have real lives to attend to on the weekends. We'll see how it goes.

After this game is complete, I'm fine with someone other than me moderating a new game. Perhaps we'll get more participation that way.

You're doing fine as moderator.

And the 24 hour thing may help with "real lives" issue.

I know I can actually go a whole day (or even two) without being here, some times.

I think you're doing a fine job of moderating the game.

You're great at this ahso. I know I missed out many times on voting & by the time I got to vote my choices were settled already. I think you're doing wonderfully.

And maybe I am just over-reacting at the idea of Van Halen beating out Deep Purple.

That hurt. :-1

I know the pain. I still haven't recovered emotionally over the Jimmy Buffet snub but I'm slowing coming to terms with it. It's been like the 5 stages of grief ... denial, anger, bargaining, depression & finally acceptance. And before someone takes me too seriously, I'm only teasing!

I like Van Halen ... they have fun!

I like Van Halen ... they have fun! For Once In My Life was my crisis.

Let It Be!

8 o 1 For Let It Be. Somebody give Bruv a crisis prevention phone number. Only one out of I think four or five Stevie Wonder song survived round one.

Next: Two very special songs to me. Turn it up!

Wet Willie Keep On Smiling - YouTube



VS

Richie Havens - Wild nights

The beautiful, lovely, charming, talented & sorely missed Richie Havens. Thank you.

Amen sister.

This does not constitute a vote.

Why not? Are you only a tie-breaker? :-3

Im in here quick this time.......it's embarrasing but again neither is really known to me, of course I know of Richie Havens, and after a listen that would be my choice.......... Wild Nights

God doth not need either man's work or his own gifts: who best bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state is kingly; thousands at his bidding speed and post o'er land and ocean without rest: they also serve who only stand and wait.

"They also serve who only stand and wait"

Ok, simmer down, good job, don't get your knickers in a knot.

Oh, this is a toughie

Wet Willie - Keep on Smilin' I have it on and cranked up right now.

Wandrin;1429176 wrote: Wet Willie - Keep on Smilin' I have it on and cranked up right now.Did you extend the same courtesy to Wild Nights?

Not familiar with Wet Willie. Good track though. Not sure they made any impact here.

Ritchie Havens did of course and Wild Nights gets my vote

LarsMac;1429173 wrote: Oh, this is a toughieDon't forget to follow that up with a vote.

Wild Nights !

Ahso!;1429178 wrote: Did you extend the same courtesy to Wild Nights?


Yes, I did, and I really like Wild Nights. In any other matchup, it would be my pick. But Keep on Smilin' is one of those songs that just "spoke to me" at just the right moment of my personal history and has been intertwined with those memories ever since. So, I have to vote for Keep on Smilin'.
