Back to normal! Phew! Hope Jemma, Collette, Sussex, Brass et al are able to join us again. Duke is offering us a wide spectrum of genres, issues, etc as long as the title features the word "gold". We might need to ask him if it includes "golden" and any other variants. Nominations in by midnight Wednesday please

The next five themes are:

Theme 350 - Firearms - Any song title containing a firearm, eg. gun, pistol, revolver, shotgun, rifle, musket, carbine or a specific make/brand - Helen
Theme 351 - Opposites Attract - Jemma
https://forums.digitalspy.com/discuss...
Theme 352 - Call and response - Any track which features a call and response section between instruments or vocals. The classic example would be Duelling Banjos - Jim
Theme 353 - "Monkey Business" - Song titles featuring either the word monkey or if you prefer, a specific primate species. No apes tho...I'll do those another day! - Duke the Juke
Theme 354 - Vocal Hero - Songs from bands with a new singer (not just a guest) who wasn't the one they first recorded with - Brass Neck

I thought it was going to be closer, with a lot of ties, but no, we have three clear winners. In first place it is Duke's nomination of The Stranglers (on 23 votes - ignore Foe's poor addition). With 18 votes KJS takes second place with John Stewart, and Tech wins third place with 17 votes for Vin Gordon. Thank you all nominators and voters.

Yay! :)

Failed maths 3 times believably enough, well done Duke!
