Well, here we go. I don't think this is likely to happen again, but these are identical to Adagio's choices. Now I'm superstitious.

Actually what it told me for a minute Adagio I thought we might be telepathically joined or it was Groundhog Day. ;D
I have fixed the SoundBlaster I have, but again just tried to access the MIDI and it wouldn't work. >:(
Don't despair, round H is looking promising for you right now. Anyone who DKTOS on that needs more remedial rock music lessons than myself.

Ant, sometime just for you, listen to the BeeGees pre-Disco songs, especially that one. I was shocked...they sound a lot like Simon and Garfunkel. Why they changed is beyond me..they must have been caught up in the Disco scene. Shame :(

Looks like G is the ladies' letter for Ol' Kristof!
5 pts: Arwen (#2)....Self deprecating and very very funny
4 pts: MooRocca (#3)....It's a scenario I'd love to see
3 pts: Dee (#15)....It's a scenario I hope I NEVER see!
2 pts: Stu (#8)...Because it describes me a bit too well; except for the vomiting
1 pt: Johnny (#16)...late night barroom blues with primates is just a great concept!
Well done, everyone who entered...

So many DKTOS's, and I don't usually have that problem that much. Here goes
5 points to Johnny D for gorilla man
4 points to arwen for glancing's mean
3 points to phil
2 to the goat
1 point for rick C
I may have been a bit harsh on people... feel fee to get me back next round if you find it necessary. Honest criticism is better than making the comment all about the cleverness of the commenter and not really about the song.
