It looks like the soul backlash has begun in earnest, even though there's not been that much soul in the competition.

Bloody hell G, you get a few bad comments against your China White pick, and suddenly it's an anti-soul backlash.

I struggle to muster enthusiasm because, frankly, the music is mostly appalling.

To do list:
- more lyrics that Ray knows in the next quiz - more songs that GB likes in the next Cup

i think it's been underwhelming. even my own choices have bored me, but at least i've finally unlocked the winning cup formula. should i make the final, i will revert to type and not play to the gallery.

I think people are too fussy by half! They seem to expect the selections to reflect their record collections.

My only complaint is that I think I've been subjected to a very harsh draw compared to some. If only I could get my hands on the cunt responsible..

I just think we are bored so people are picking something that is "interesting" rather than good. Some of the shit picked boggles my mind. People actually listen to this for pleasure? It's like eating dried, stale bread when you could be having a nice slice of buttery toast instead.

I think it's been fun. There were a couple of dreary rounds (2 & 3 especially), but there's been a decent mix of old & new, odd and normal, cheesy and sensible. I'm not expecting each round to provide me with a life-affirming song or artist I will love for years, it's just fun to listen to something new and make sense of your reaction to it within a very short time-frame. Anything that does turn out to be worth investigating is just a bonus, and there have been at least a couple of those for me.

Well yeah! It's a pleasant diversion. I certainly haven't liked much of what I've heard, but it's not like it's ruining my day or anything.
I do get a little down when folks say my choices are absolute shit, but then I think about the stuff they actually like and I don't feel bad anymore!

I regret my decision to abstain on that last tie. Not happening again regardless. Got to vote.
Skope's selection would have got my vote, btw.
