Wasn’t expecting to win on that.

Not going to be able to host, have realised the timing I wouldn’t be able to release Noms until Friday so will pass on hosting duties.

Really at a loss to understand how my song attracted 3 billies. Beautiful vocals, really meaningful lyrics, #nextround

Playlist rating - 8.5/10. Welcome back to the returnees! Hopefully you enjoyed this round as much as I did.

Selling out...every concert since then! They had already made their millions by the time 'Load' was released.

Apparently they were getting bored and wanted to try new things musically. (Only three years later S&M was released).

There was still something on Load and Reload for the hardcore fans, and if you haven't already, I suggest you listen to the albums. Two of my favourite tracks are 'King Nothing' and 'Fuel'.

Besides that, I don't see anything wrong with a band creating music that could reach new fans.
 
I might be going mad but I've already put in a nom to Chilli for Travel.

So did I,

It got rejected as he realised he couldn’t host.

Great info thanks. And I agree, I was just upset at not enjoying the tune. I haven't listened the those albums and will give them a whirl at some stage. King Nothing is a banger.

That Words song wasn't that great but I love Doves so I still gave it 5 botes anyway, in a stronger playlist it wouldn't have got 5.

That Metallica wasn't one of their greatest songs either and I still gave it 4.
Most of my favourite Doves songs had been nommed already, Words was one of three unnominated choices.
 
Yeah I had never heard of them, will give their Stoosh album a listen soon.

Stoosh was played to death by me in my teen years. That, Paranoid and Sunburnt all get regular play today. Always surprised Skin didn't break out (mind the pun).

I think I ascertain where some of the Skunk Anansie votes came from then haha. Good to have you back in the contest btw. May this streak eclipse your previous world record!
