[SotW] Song of the Week - WEEK 99 Voting/WEEK 100 Nominating

I'd been wondering about this since it was first nominated. I've got the album in question, and also number III in the series. However, I'm not very good at discerning doujin from legitimate tracks. I figured that, since nobody else spoke up, that it was a fair nomination and that Jogeir Liljedahl was a credible VGM composer.

Of course, now I'm totally bummed. Having never heard of Liljedahl, I did a bit of a search for him and found a link to some of his work via Bjorn Lynne's website of all places. Seeing this, I really had second thoughts about questioning the Back in Time nomination. But the biggest reason I'm bummed is that I found a very awesome demoscene track by Liljedahl and was planning on nominating it very soon.

Now I can't do anything with it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Kind of a bleh week to me.

2 Points: Muppet RaceMania (Game Rip) - Rooftops
2 Points: Spider-Man 3 (Game Rip) - MJ Thrill Ride (looped)
2 Points: Back in Time II - Galway Is God 2000

Nothing else interested me.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Given that it's been tougher to get voters here for a little while, and that there are now two larger song contests occurring, it may be reasonable to give SotW a little break.

I don't enjoy saying so, however.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well, we're moving into Round 3 of the BSC, so at this point, most people know which songs they like and don't need to spend hours listening.

But 512 songs in the SAUS is a lot. And Pang's posting them in an odd pattern, so it could take a while to get through the first round there.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
