Note that Fred's entry wouldn't get a score at all since he didn't vote.

[commodorejohn]

Ah, true.

[Freddino18]

Sorry about that, didn't have the energy to come to the forums for a while

[commodorejohn]

S'alright :)

[LingEarth]

somi are you going to run the next round?

[somitomi]

Oh yeah, kinda forgot about this. Thanks everyone! I genuinely didn't expect this song to do too well because of its psychedelic nature.
To celebrate my first time riding an actual motorcycle, let's do a round of songs about motorcycles and riding thereof. Deadline is the 28th of May.

[somitomi]

I forgot to give a heads-up earlier, so you have 24-ish hours from now

[somitomi]

Looks like this is gonna be a small contest that'll easily fit in your pocket while you ride down the highway:
They Might Be Giants - Dirt Bike
The Beach Boys - Little Honda
Simon & Garfunkel - Baby Driver
Just remember to come back this way before the 6th of June to tell me which one you liked best.

[somitomi]

30 hour reminder

[somitomi]

Well, amusingly enough the winner of this round is all of us, we've managed to get a three-way tie in a three horse race. Congratulations to everyone and I guess the next host is up to you two.
