I'm beginning to think that it was a mistake to include instrumentals in this game. Especially The James Bond Theme, which is so immortal that I would be shocked if it didn't finish first. We should have saved The James Bond Theme and OHMSS for a John Barry Elimination Game.
We should have concentrated more on lyrics and vocals this time around IMO, in addition to the music. That said, we could have added songs like "Underneath The Mango Tree," "Make It Last All Night," "If There Was a Man," "If You Asked Me To," and "Surrender" to the list.
Oh well, what's done is done.
Just my two cents.

I gave points to the James Bond Theme and DAF and I saved TB.
We could have added songs like "Underneath The Mango Tree," "Make It Last All Night," "If There Was a Man," "If You Asked Me To," and "Surrender" to the list.
I think JFF is planning a bonus game at the end concerning the "other" songs, which should include some if not all of those. (And there are few others, too, of course!)
I think JFF is planning a bonus game at the end concerning the "other" songs, which should include some if not all of those. (And there are few others, too, of course!)
Perhaps we should list all the possibilities.
Here are the ones I can think of right now:
"Underneath the Mango Tree," "Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," "Do You Know How Christmas Trees Are Grown," "Make It Last All Night," "California Girls," "Where Has Everybody Gone," "If There Was A Man," "Wedding Party," "Dirty Love," "If You Asked Me To," "The Experience of Love," "Surrender," "Only Myself To Blame," and "London Calling."
"Underneath the Mango Tree," "Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," "Do You Know How Christmas Trees Are Grown," "Make It Last All Night," "California Girls," "Where Has Everybody Gone," "If There Was A Man," "Wedding Party," "Dirty Love," "If You Asked Me To," "The Experience of Love," "Surrender," "Only Myself To Blame," and "London Calling."
I'd definitely include "Kingston Calypso", "Jump Up", possibly "007" (a theme but not a song, though featured in various movies), and just maybe "You Only Live Twice (Julie Rogers 'demo').
And there's also the non-official "CR 67", "The Look Of Love" (great song), "Let The Love Come Through" (granted only heard very briefly), "NSNA", and "Une Chanson d'Amour".
I'd drop "California Girls" and "London Calling" since they weren't introduced in their respective films.

I'm beginning to think that it was a mistake to include instrumentals in this game.
I disagree-- in fact I would even say that we should have included the instrumental theme from FRWL (as opposed to the song) because it was what was actually used in the film. You might have a point with the Bond theme, as it was used in basically all the movies so it really is in a different category than the others. However there's no reason that OHMSS should have been left out as 1) it's the main theme from one of the movies, and 2) it's arguably the greatest action theme that Barry ever composed.

Curse the back-to-back Barbels!
Sometimes I wonder if Barbel really does have a son, or if he is just impersonating one in order to commit voter fraud. )
In theory, you both should still have two more votes to cast. However, since there are 7 songs/instrumentals left, aren't we supposed to switch over to the addition/subtraction method?
I think I'll leave it up to the game's distinguished hosts to figure this one out. )

You are quite right; I don't have a son. I have two sons, as well as two daughters, one stepdaughter and two grand-daughters. I am offended. Son Of Barbel has been around here for a while and has participated in more than just this game. If you recall, in a recent PM we discussed the fact that he has the same Christian name as you- I'm hardly likely to have broached that subject if he didn't exist.
I don't consider that including a couple of smilies negates the negativity of your post. This game has been light-hearted fun but you've chosen to make it serious. I repeat that I am offended; I would hope that my character has been established by now and that no-one would take such an accusation seriously.

A poor attempt at humor I'm afraid. I certainly didn't mean to offend anybody, the least of all a friend. I guess I can't really blame you for becoming defensive, like you, my family means the world to me. I hope you (and Daniel ) will accept my sincerest apology.
(Sigh) Apparently I've earned the reputation of a trouble maker. Perhaps I should take a leave of absence until after the holidays...
I suggest that anything further between you and I be forwarded via PM Barbel. Let the game commence!

I'm beginning to think that it was a mistake to include instrumentals in this game. Especially The James Bond Theme, which is so immortal that I would be shocked if it didn't finish first. We should have saved The James Bond Theme and OHMSS for a John Barry Elimination Game.
We should have concentrated more on lyrics and vocals this time around IMO, in addition to the music. That said, we could have added songs like "Underneath The Mango Tree," "Make It Last All Night," "If There Was a Man," "If You Asked Me To," and "Surrender" to the list.
Oh well, what's done is done.
Just my two cents.

I gave points to the James Bond Theme and DAF and I saved TB.
I think JFF is planning a bonus game at the end concerning the "other" songs, which should include some if not all of those. (And there are few others, too, of course!)
Perhaps we should list all the possibilities.
Here are the ones I can think of right now:
"Underneath the Mango Tree," "Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," "Do You Know How Christmas Trees Are Grown," "Make It Last All Night," "California Girls," "Where Has Everybody Gone," "If There Was A Man," "Wedding Party," "Dirty Love," "If You Asked Me To," "The Experience of Love," "Surrender," "Only Myself To Blame," and "London Calling."
Any more to add?
Thank you Sir! :007)
-Roger Moore
I'd definitely include "Kingston Calypso", "Jump Up", possibly "007" (a theme but not a song, though featured in various movies), and just maybe "You Only Live Twice (Julie Rogers 'demo').
And there's also the non-official "CR 67", "The Look Of Love" (great song), "Let The Love Come Through" (granted only heard very briefly), "NSNA", and "Une Chanson d'Amour".
I'd drop "California Girls" and "London Calling" since they weren't introduced in their respective films.

I disagree-- in fact I would even say that we should have included the instrumental theme from FRWL (as opposed to the song) because it was what was actually used in the film. You might have a point with the Bond theme, as it was used in basically all the movies so it really is in a different category than the others. However there's no reason that OHMSS should have been left out as 1) it's the main theme from one of the movies, and 2) it's arguably the greatest action theme that Barry ever composed.

I saved the james Bond Theme, do I still have two points to give?
Sometimes I wonder if Barbel really does have a son, or if he is just impersonating one in order to commit voter fraud.
In theory, you both should still have two more votes to cast. However, since there are 7 songs/instrumentals left, aren't we supposed to switch over to the addition/subtraction method?
I think I'll leave it up to the game's distinguished hosts to figure this one out.

No votes cast; just tidying up.
You are quite right; I don't have a son. I have two sons, as well as two daughters, one stepdaughter and two grand-daughters. I am offended. Son Of Barbel has been around here for a while and has participated in more than just this game. If you recall, in a recent PM we discussed the fact that he has the same Christian name as you- I'm hardly likely to have broached that subject if he didn't exist.
I don't consider that including a couple of smilies negates the negativity of your post. This game has been light-hearted fun but you've chosen to make it serious. I repeat that I am offended; I would hope that my character has been established by now and that no-one would take such an accusation seriously.
A poor attempt at humor I'm afraid.
(Sigh) Apparently I've earned the reputation of a trouble maker.
I suggest that anything further between you and I be forwarded via PM Barbel. Let the game commence!
