So there we have it! My hosting virginity is no more...
I just want to say a huge thank you once again to everybody who contributed to the season and helped make the whole experience a very enjoyable one.
I've thoroughly enjoyed each and every entry and, as always, I'm in awe of the creativity and enthusiasm of everybody.
All three options for the season were successfully represented. A whole load of wonderful covers and very interesting to learn who likes or dislikes what! (Although I couldn't agree with all of them)
Not to mention a whole greenhouse full of tomato songs!
We also had a bunch of terrific tomato based originals for the season - Berni managed to tick two of the boxes with a brilliant song about learning to love what, at first, you didn't and a special mention to John (Ukecaster) and his real fine Real Fine Tomato. A proper toe tapper that I really enjoyed!
But, in the words of that bloke out of Highlander, there can be only one and after much deliberation my winner is...
*insert drum roll*
Edwin (JT Steam)! who brought three great songs in total and each one ticked off one of the options available - a song he likes from a genre he doesn't, a song he dislikes from an artist he does and a song which mentions tomatoes! Great work.
Congratulations, Edwin! Message me with your address details and the much coveted 1972 Blue Peter annual will be winging its way to you!
Once again, thank you all who took the time to contribute a song. Every one was very much appreciated!
Now, Val's May Day season is in full swing so off you trot...
Cheers,
