Completely missed today 🙈
Spent the day trying to shake a hangover and rebuild my brain. Got a bit carried away celebrating Ireland's win last night!
On the plus side, I got a lot of fresh air today, I needed it
I only just scraped through, I see. But through is through, and I'm knocking the movie round out of the park tomorrow 😉
Unlucky @Leg End Reject
Well, I say unlucky, I haven't listened to your pick and from the comments above you may have deserved it 🤣

RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - Leg End Reject - 13-06-2022
I'm not loving a lot of these.
My favorite is Declan's, and that's not because he's now my barman.
There's 2 I hate the original of and some of the covers just don't work for me. My own entry is again the worst.

Same 🖐️😁 +1 for Declan, and though I thought the quality of your recording not great, it's not my least fav cover.
It can be hard to see past songs you don't like.
RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - lorcand1990 - 13-06-2022
Looks like I might be in a bit of bother here.. Should I go for the 'poor little me' or 'rant' tactic? Hmm while I decide I think I'll just post up a song to sum things up & hope it gets more votes than my actual entry
RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - Leg End Reject - 13-06-2022
@lorcand1990, I like The Lemonheads recorded version of that song (and the original), but the singer isn't great live.

The rest, I could appreciate that they were good but they just didn't grab me...
...or they were Maroon 5 🤣
RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - Declan A Walsh - 13-06-2022
@lorcand1990 I for one liked that whacky live version of The Lemonheads' Mrs Robinson so I gave it a vote!
@Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick - The Wind And The Wave - Don't You Forget About Me. While liking a lot of stuff by Simple Minds, including some of their earlier more raw new wave stuff, I was never mad about this particular song at all. Therefore, it is quite an achievement to come up with a cover version arrangement that I like, which you did! Easily gets my vote for that reason alone.
@E.N. - you might consider voting for your own entry like other people do: it could be crucial!
RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - Necro - 13-06-2022
Will be after 5 before I get to have a listen, working in office today 😩
RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - RSOAPS - 13-06-2022
Only a handful left much of an impression on me today. Was hoping to see a few more iconic movie songs make an appearance, the likes of Ghostbusters or Eye Of The Tiger or You're The Best from The Karate Kid, and there were an awful lot of slower numbers today instead which didn't really grab me.
Even Adam Levine is up there singing about being "Happy", but sounds like he's just been told his dog died.

@DejaBoo forget what I just said about slow numbers failing to grab me, because there are exceptions to every rule and this is one of them. Love the original, but this cover is gorgeous. Song of the round for me.

@aaronjennings never been mad about this song, always thought it was a tad overrated (although after a few drinks, I'd defo be singing along to it if I heard it), and I had every intention of hating this, but the stupid kid won me over and she absolutely nailed the harmony at the end, so props where props are due and all that...

@E.N. this was a bit of a tough one because I love the original version and I like everything I've heard from Silversun Pickups before, but that just means there are high expectations on my end, and it didn't really come close to living up to them, but on the otherhand would I go and listen to this cover again... absolutely I would, so Thanks awarded.

@Declan A Walsh only one from the Elimination Room that grabbed me at all, would like to think this would've done well if it were still in contention, but very few people around here that give Radiohead the respect they deserve so who knows how it might have fared... Great choice though...

Between Ari and Seph for best song of the day for me

Sigh, not sure if I'm just extra moody today...
Would Listen Again
Deja
Enjoyed it but wouldn't seek it out
Lorc, RSOAPS, seph
Not my cup of tea
Spears, ari, aaron, EN, wichy
In The Losers Lounge - Declan and jluvs choices were great!

RE: The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show - Necro - 13-06-2022
Can't stand the original Moon River so the cover does nothing for me unfortunately! It's boring as feck!
Seph's should basically be called 'Whitney Medley' - it's multiple songs rolled into one video!! And I'm taking points off for Aguilera butchering I Will Always Love You.
I absolutely loved ari's entry but it's a carbon copy of the original - in fact the Necro household had an argument that it wasn't the original singer (I won, naturally)!
I was surprised that I enjoyed Lewis Capaldi tbh as I have no time for him normally.
Lorcan's entry isn't that bad, surprised it's getting less love than most, especially given Seph subjected us to nearly 8 mins of Xtina/Christina/whatever she's calling herself these days!
Overall tbh the standard is quite bad this round, if I'm honest.
@Kol let's have a double elimination and spice things up

Just to be clear, the Christina song is only for the I Have Nothing song, I hope @Sephiroth_Dude agrees with that. I thought I had a time stamp in the video though I must have forgot, I do apologise. Please judge it on that song only.

My favourites today
Deja, beautiful, loved it.
Aaron awwwww..loved it and the little girl put a smile on my face.
Spears, loved the song when I first heard it but started to hate it when I would hear it every two mins. But I really liked this cover.
Declan wins the losers lounge for me. Love the original and love this version.
