RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - Spears - 30-01-2023 @Jluv I absolutely love that song ❣ I was never much of a fan of Take That's earlier music but I was mesmerised by that video. Thought the lady was stunning & so mysterious. I was only a pup when it came out & I love it as much now as I did then RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - Hello 2D Person Below - 31-01-2023 Wishing you all the best Tauriel.

My heart goes out to you today, Tauriel. RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - nothing - 31-01-2023 some really excellent choices today RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - RSOAPS - 31-01-2023 Good round overall, there are one or two heavy hitters in there that I've always felt are terribly overrated, but nothing offensively bad or awful Standouts today for me were: @Butty Brennan had the standout of the round for me, Cypress Hill wouldn't really be my cup of tea usually, but everything worked for me on this one @Neowise great cover of a timeless classic, really liked it @Tauriel thought this was a great pick. Have heard Within Temptation before and always enjoyed them, but this one was new to me and thought the addition of Xzibit worked very well. (So sorry to hear about your dog, take care) @DejaBoo have always loved this song, fan of The Band Perry in general, but If I Die Young has always blown me away whenever I listen to it @Spears considering how much I hate Garth Brooks, its a miracle that I've always really liked this cover, but they make me forget that I can't stand the OG artist @Hello 2D Person Below wasn't familiar with the song, but I've never disliked a Lauryn Hill song and this was no exception. Its probably beyond time I went back and did a deep dive of her discography @aaronjennings at first I wasn't overly keen on this, but by the song's end it had completely won me over and evolved into one of the highlights of the round RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - Wichita Lineman - 31-01-2023 James Blunt was my favourite today. RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - Neowise - 31-01-2023 oops, I thought we had a week to listen to and vote songs, only got around to listening to two from the last round. Don't think I'll have the time available to listen and vote daily, so will leave the rest of you with more time to do that. RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - Necro - 31-01-2023 If I Die Young the standout pick for me this round 👏👏👏👏👏 RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - aaronjennings - 31-01-2023 Strong standards today, I really had to cull down the number of votes I handed out. Another two or three could easily have gotten the nod Soapy's nomination was the highlight for me RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - jp liz v1 - 31-01-2023 (31-01-2023, 08:43 AM)Kol Wrote: @aaronjennings - Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God @aaronjennings RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - aaronjennings - 31-01-2023 RE: The FOG Factor - Series 3 - Live Show - DejaBoo - 31-01-2023 kols, if ever you need an extra deciding factor in case of extreme tie, feel free chuck out my vote - it's not fair of me to judge a song on the brief 15 second snippet my chromey affords.

Is it just Chrome you have issues with or is everything else a major hassle as well?

Vids are generally what makes it freeze, and images can take awhile to load. But I can generally do little web stuff still. It wasn't always this way, only since they stopped updating, due to "planned obsolescence" of 2 years. I was warned last June was it's "end date", so 7 months later and I am pushing it beyond reasonability now...
