With the "Awaken" example, just play it once, but acknowledge that it was a multiple selection. (Just call me Mr. Compromise, thank you)

My favorite is not on the Moon, and I have a vehicle to play mine, so I will recuse myself....great idea though!

Re: The Moonie Absolute Favourite Tune Show!

No, I never thought we should play Awaken ten times!

I understood spaz to say that he thought the top 20 songs shouldn't be played at all, and it was that that I was offering a different view on.

Awaken or whatever once, with reference to everyone who submitted it as their fave etc.

Actually, it might be a short show

Oh and sharc...

Definitely not sure about priestess and wisdom, but thank you. Unfortunately high has definitely been thin on the ground for about two decades.

This is exactly what I meant. In this way we are not overstressing any song, and every song "requested" is played.

Ya'll are proving my point. My absolute favorite is Awaken, but baby, there's no way I'm nominating it for the show, because I've got a really good chance someone else will do it for me So I'll pick something more esoteric. There's a chance more than one of us will do the same thing. I'm just saying as we vote for our favorites, let's purposefully pick something that's not a universal favorite. It guarantees a little more diversity than the obvious. I'm predicting all the 70s Yes epics will be in the show!

There are no Yes songs in my top 10.

If you don't pick you're favorite song, then you're not picking you're favorite song. So what's the point?

Re: The Moonie Absolute Favourite Tune Show!

To your Mossness, I thought HP of the D was a Fun title, You know our Queen in Seattle was ordained a long time ago in Europe. I Like to think of you as the Soul of the moon.


Our Favorites are just that, ...But one Play, X votes Make it the No. 1 Favorite or the 100th. This is lotus's job to compile, like Woj in Jan. (sorry my friend but who else will do the work?)

I'm reminded of Preseason NFL football, more precisely the Press Coverage.
For Months Speculation about Players is Bantered each day, particularly new additions to the teams....after 6 weeks and readiness for that 1st game, all those players written about have been cut and all that was said about them for 6 weeks is....never-mind. There is no Aural Favorites Show that I Know of..... and I'm sure Yes WOULD be in My List, Hey I'm Old School

Re: The Moonie Absolute Favourite Tune Show!

I loved your title, sharc. I took it as a compliment and I'm not very good with those.

As for you...you are the Sound Druid of the Woods. Always thought of you as that.

Rick, has a good point spaz lol. If we're avoiding picking our fave because we think everyone else will, what are we supposed to pick. I think you should pick Awaken anyway. Part of the fun would be to see just how many people love the same song.

I don't have any Yes in my top 10 either.
