These music challenge themes currently run for Four Days - this theme finishes (Sydney time) on:
Tuesday 17th February at 10am
International posters can check the current local Sydney time here:

The idea of the music challenge is to select a song from YouTube (or another video site) which relates to the chosen theme via the song's title and/or lyrics. Post the URL link to your chosen video under the song title and artist.
NO EMBEDDED VIDEOS OR IMAGES PLEASE - this is to accomodate those using devices with slow internet connections, such as iphones and other portable devices, who have had problems loading the threads, so everybody can enjoy the game.
NOTE!:- Any embedded videos entered will not count in the game, and will be deemed invalid.
The poster of the video which has received the most kudos at the end time wins the challenge. If there is an unresolvable tie, the first video posted will take precedence. The winner chooses the next theme, starts a new thread, hosts it, and declares the eventual new winner with the most kudos, with the winning entry post # and song details. As a winner, you can copy and paste this head info post into the new thread (remember to update the end time). In this way the challenge threads can be self running (no other prizes, sorry...)
All are welcome to take part, even if you don't post a video yourself - just kudo the posted videos you like. If you are technically challenged and don't know how to post a video link (don't worry, you will not be the first), just ask, and someone will guide you along, or see here:

This French song, sung by France Gall, won the Eurovison song contest way back in 1965
I'm a wax doll
A singing doll
My heart is engraved with my songs
Wax doll, singing doll...
This is a recent updated version which I prefer:
Wax Doll ~ Kim Kay
