Thankyou so much for taking part,and hopefully you'll keep an eye on the rest of the contest.
***ROUND TWO***
SWINGING 60'S
Does what it says on the headline!...Actually,after reading the threads throughout this contest so far,i'd best rename it!So...those of you that threw your keys in...retrieve them now!!!lol
SWINGING 60'S
(The British Invasion)
Okay...Time to celebrate the music of the time when minis were no longer just cool cars,but also the answer to every man's prayers.A time when girls-and even boys-screamed and fainted if they even heard the name The Beatles......A time when the rest of the world took notice,and realised...British music ruled!!!(Ok,maybe a little over the top,then again...maybe not ;o) )
Rules:Choose any British Top 10 hit of the 60's.Simple!!!!
Usual rules apply.Any pre-record used must be less than 1 month old at the time you post it as your entry.
This round will close at 7pm on Tuesday 7th October....So,stop reading and get looking and recording...Another 10 will leave at the end of this round.GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!
***NOTE*** THIS ROUND THE JUDGES WILL BE YOU!, YOU WILL HAVE TO VOTE ON EACH OTHERS SONGS, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TELL US YOUR FAVOURITE SINGER (IN PM) ALL WILL BE PRIVATE, ONE VOTE ONE SINGER, HOW EASY IS THAT!! THE SINGERS WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF VOTES WILL LEAVE THE CONTEST IN THE EVENT OF A TIE, ANOTHER INDEPENDANT JUDGE (NOT ME OR VICKY) WILL DECIDE

Commiserations to those who never made it through, you were all great and the judges must have had a tough time.
If anyone wants to know if a particular song made the top 10 in the UK chart here's a great site to find out, just type the song or artist in the search box and it'll tell you the year it charted and it's top position
