Round 1 voting is here for the 3rd Official Music Junkie Chicken Fight Tournament! This is group 3 of 3.
The competitors were given a challenge and they each picked a song that they felt best fit that challenge. Now it's your job as Junkies to vote for the best choices!!
********
"Foreign In-Laws"
You are 23 years old and newly married. You've never met your in-laws. They are flying in tomorrow morning. Your spouse bought them an iPod to take back to their country. You are in charge of picking a song from their country, that will surely make them happy. Or will it? It's up to you.
Your song should:
A) Be in a language other than English B) be agreeable to a nice foreign middle-aged couple AND C) make a good impression on them, which in turn will make your spouse happy, which will in turn greatly influence your future intimacy (or lack thereof).
Available countries (must choose one of these): Germany, Argentina, India, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Russia, Gabon, Egypt, China, Japan, Sweden and Kazakhstan.
*****
It is your job to vote and vote fair! Vote for the song that fits the category best!

I take it that FG was one of the no-shows, since I'm now matched up against Scott.

Him and greg. I'm thinking I'll match them against each other, if they still live.
Either that, or we'll go forward with 11 winners (or recruit a couple of volunteers for a sudden-death match to fill in the final slot).

However you want to do it is cool. I'd have gone with the forfeit option if it was up to me (FTR, I was for that option even before I knew I would benefit from it), but I'm good with whatever you decide.

Winning by forfeit is like going to war against France.

"Poll runs till November 14th, 2009, 10:52 am
You may select up to 4 options"
Shouldn't that be 3 options for this one?

You are right.
Habit, since the previous 2 polls had 4 options.
But now it's too late for me to change it.
So either we can trust people to pay attention (the entries are grouped as 9, 10 or 11), or maybe an admin can edit the voting rule without discarding any votes.

That's fascinating.

Exactly - I'm moving the chat around since Group 1 was getting a disproportionate number of votes. :mrgreen:

I'm really not sure. I think they might like it, but not for the same reasons we do. It is a catchy tune.

Keep in mind, you're voting for the song and not the video (or silly translation).
Unless you don't like the song and like the video, then vote for the video and not the song.

For me, I would want inlaws with a sense of humor.

99 Luft Balons is actually one of the few songs where I prefer the foreign (in this case, the original) song better than the American version. It's not a bad song - despite the 80's cheesiness.

I like this song too. My only problem is that to me, it's more of a song of youth, not necessarily something "Middle Aged In Laws " would listen to. Lifeispain didnt do himself any favors though ! :lol:

It came out when the middle-aged in-laws were much younger (1983).
