1+9+8+2 = 20
2+8+9+1= 20

2020

 

[Wang Chung]

10+ 10 and 11+ 11 equal the same thing

 

[Professor Booty]

1+9+8+2 = 20
2+8+9+1= 20

2020

No thanks I’ll pass

Okay, 1982... Stacked year, once again.

Already saw two bangers who are not eligible though, because they have been used before... gonna have to double check everything with this one.

Are they Sheamus style?

You're not allowed to get another win. Sorry. Only allowed to pick non-bangers.

Half the rounds this season I did that...

The early 80s are wild... if I'd use the German Year-End 100 Singles for research, I wouldn't get far with nominating anything for BOTS, since it's right in the middle of the NDW movement (Neue Deutsche Welle = New German Wave... no, it doesn't have anything to do with Wave music). The top 20 singles of that year in Germany only had 5 songs in English in it, including the #1 of that year... but that song didn't even come close to do anything on the US market.

And I love the NDW... so with 1982 I basically have twice the bangers to enjoy, even though half of them I would never send in. (Unless there would be another "Foreign Language" round)

[Skyefire]

Some of the best songs are already taken in the form of Jack & Diane, 1999, Come On Eileen among others.

I say you pick one of those songs Loochster.

I think it's a strong strategy (for me) to win the game.

 

[Loochblade]

I do know though. I'm not saying they'd be automatic blow-out losses though.
