Just to add my two cents on the zero tolerance list...I believe that Bowie, Prince and The Foo Fighters also need to be added pronto!

RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - Declan A Walsh - 02-03-2023 The Forgotten element means it could include songs that charted reasonably well, provided they were forgotten about...and of course that they are gems (now hidden)! That could happen, for example. if an act's work is dominated by one song, which overshadows everything else - sometimes unjustifiably.

I'd be surprised if many here knew it, you maybe 🤣 RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - Necro - 02-03-2023 (02-03-2023, 08:48 PM)Tauriel Wrote: Hmm, might have to have a little think and get an entry in for this. RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - E.N. - 02-03-2023 Can't believe no one's mentioned Iris by The Goo Goo dolls for the banned list! Didn't it appear in 17 consecutive walrii, or something crazy like that? RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - Necro - 02-03-2023 (02-03-2023, 10:01 PM)E.N.

Even though it isn't a hidden gem, I'd probably give it a vote in this game if it did show up - just in case we need something equally popular in the back pocket to take on the Big Bad Gallagher Brother in Oasis at the Final...

I think a lot of people are forgetting an important word here.....forgotten (see what I did there?). You may well have heard it before, but it has been forgotten. Actually, it's kind of hard to forget a song if you never heard it before, hidden gem or not! RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - ShaneU - 03-03-2023 Entries are in. All destined to knocked out by ten songs that are much more well known and popular that are also supposedly hidden gems because that person hasn't heard them in ages RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - jp liz v1 - 04-03-2023 (02-03-2023, 10:01 PM)E.N.

RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - Declan A Walsh - 04-03-2023 It's definitely not a Hidden Gem anyway.

Foreigner - That Was Yesterday - not a big fan of Foreigner, this is one of their better songs GOAT - Under No Nation - mixed feelings about GOAT, this is the only song that I liked Shane McGowan and Sinead O'Connor - Haunted - vote for Sinead, I don't like McGowan's voice in general (didn't like the other 2 in this match. Michael Franks would be something I may have listened to back in the day but really grew out of that sound) Suzanne Vega - Small Blue Thing - fantastic song, kudos to whoever nominated this. Suzanne Vega in the 80s and early 90s wrote some great music. The Chills - Monolith - not a huge fan, just that the GOAT song in this match was my least favourite of theirs Vandenberg - Friday Night - nice standard 80s hair rock GOAT - Goat Jam - something that it would be interesting to see live and for it to keep an going for a bit longer. RE: FOGs Greatest Hidden Gem Song - jp liz v1 - 15-03-2023 I'm rotfl at GOAT entries ye really went for it |
