Wednesday Poll #10 Best Song Ever...

[101Walterton]

Easy for me Carly Simon I love that song, probably because it was the first film I took a girl to on a date
Closely followed by the Monkees but after that nothing for me.

[WestwayKid]

Miss You is an absolute monster of a track (in my opinion). Wyman's bass riff alone is worth a vote.

[WestwayKid]

I think anyone who votes for Robbie Williams should get an automatic 1-week ban.

[WestwayKid]

anybody seen the Joe Meek biopic, I have a copy and never watched it

It was a fun watch.

[WestwayKid]

Crab juice... now more than ever.

Just pick "Telstar." For your Uncle Flex and Aunt Medulla.

Im not an informed voter so I think it my duty to abstain.

Why can't you be more like your brother Kory?

He's not my real brother ...

Kevin looks like a Garbage Pail Kid.

I remember they tried to push him in the US once. That song Millennium. Just listened for the first time in like 20 years. The verses are like barely four lines and then that lame chorus forever and ever.

Yeah, the mid-to-late 90's they tried to make him a thing. What an awful time. He had that sort of hit with a cover of World Party's "She's the One". He apparently likes to claim that he wrote that song, however. He just represents everything that was terrible about that time period.

I think anyone who votes for Robbie Williams should be hung by the testicles until death.

Fixed.

I like this :
When introducing the song in live performances, Williams often claims it is one of the best songs he's ever written, despite not actually having written the song. This culminated in a telephone outburst from the song's actual writer, Wallinger, to Chambers, stating "Your fucking friend Robbie Williams. Tell him from me that he's a cunt". Williams has never publicly acknowledged that "She's the One" is a cover of a World Party track although 20 years later, in a 2019 commercial for his album The Christmas Present , Williams states that he wrote the song for Amazon Alexa. The device subsequently states that Williams did not write She's the One, to which Robbie admits "no, I didn't".

Karl Wallinger should rerecord the song using the same backing track and call it "He's a Cunt".

World Party are great.

You all know my feelings on this fucking idiotic red coat.

Nobody Does It Better - Carly Simon - 8/10 - One of my favourite Bond themes
Telephone Line - Electric Light Orchestra - 6/10 - They've done better
All I Have To Do Is Dream - The Everly Brothers - 7/10 - Good oldie
All Star - Smash Mouth - 5/10 - Codswallop really
Miss You - The Rolling Stones - 6/10 - A decent latter day Stones song but that doesn't mean it's great
Let Me Entertain You - Robbie Williams - 0/10 - Despicable man
Daydream Believer - The Monkees - 9/10 - Brilliant tune
Thunderstruck - AC/DC - 7/10 - Decent but not on par with their earlier stuff
Telstar - The Tornados - 9/10 - Love this one, just pipped by the Monkees for me
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley - 3/10 - I hate this type of music

I'm pretty much down with this. I would swap your 1 & 2 because The Monkees tune is overplayed and they have better tracks. Not to say I don't like it any way. The Stones track is an 8 for me. The rest I feel the same as your list.

Apart from Robbie who gets -10 for being a musical twat.

That one he did with Kylie was ok, the rest is wank.
