I suspect some bias in the results here. At the time she announced the BOS winner, there were no votes for DWBH on the FB page (although a couple of folks were griping about it), but it still won BOS. Hmmmm.
Let's get right to it.

If there was ever a song that could make Bobby McFerrin sound like Mozart, it's this one: WOS Kokomo.
I tend to agree, even though it's a good earworm.  Like a catchy radio commercial.

no list yet?

I heard most of the set; pretty routine.

Listening to the replay. I enjoyed Mike & the Mechanics, so BOS for getting the lighters out. I also liked Robert Plant. Bobby McFerrin doesn't annoy me since I haven't heard it much on 10@10.

It seems reasonable to assume that the BOS voting is conducted with the same care and
consideration that Renee demonstrates in other aspects of 10@10.

A blah set for me.  McFerrin was certainly the flavor of the moment.  His hit song is emblematic
for that year, but not in good way.

As I explained yesterday, I can no longer use FB at work, so I can't grab the list until evening at the earliest.

Maybe we can get the younguns to handle it!
