I got my submissions. There were 3 I think that didn't fit the criteria of post 2000.

If you'd like to resubmit please do so by Monday. If not, the entries in question will automatically finish 7,8 and 9

Slim, pretty sure you're wrong about when at least one of those songs was released

(post means after, right?

)

I'm not sure if nich passed it on but someone submitted a song released in 1982 for my 2020 category. If that's you please resubmit or come auto-last.

Gave my entries their first two listen today (absent the one I'm still waiting for). Fairly clear hierarchy of ranking though likely a bit of movement within that heirarchy. Will continue to listen

Ready to do my reveal tonight.

Thinking around 6pm server time

Time might alter slightly if the Alphabet Reveal or real life get in the way.

just realised there are 2 songs submitted to my category that don't fulfill the basic requirement of being from 2020. One from 2010 and one from 1982. Please resubmit if that is you or you will be auto-last.

In this instance I would want you to send me the King Harvest version and it would fit the category because the cover is really famous (at least it is in my country) and the original is not really well known at all.

So a few general thoughts about my category. I had recently found out that Toploader wasn't the original Dancing in the Moonlight and so it was in recent memory and threw this category out as a whim.

I don't think it was that great of a category in hindsight. I think there are few good choices because famous covers are usually better than unknown originals.

I was expecting Prince - Nothing Compares 2U and Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah, [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] and got 2 out of 4
