Lord Huron - with thanks to KarmaPolice

The Kinks

Now losing Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody hurt, but because Brian May and Roger Taylor need to provide for their families/have become such whores, there are loads of opportunities to still take them.

Only question is which version

Queen and Paul Rodgers? Rodgers doesnt have the range of Freddie so only comes in during the rock bit and lets Freddie sing the rest
Queen and Adam Lambert? Lambert has the range, but while its good, its not enough

That leaves me with only one choice

25 Queen and the Muppets - Bohemian Rhapsody

I was once wearing my Kermit the Frog tie….yeah Im that guy….and this Korean woman freaks out telling me she will have nightmares for days and to please take it off. Gonzo, I get, but Kermit?

My son loves this version. It probably helps that the references to murder were removed.

As we are approaching the 27th round, for those still in it.....not so fast Mrs Rannous and Pik95, heres what we will do.

It will be free for all, with only 2 provisions
1) Pick an artist already chosen. Any letter. Any artist. Any time, once all 26th round picks are made. Its yours
2) Pick any song from that artist EXCEPT the one chosen by the original drafter.

FIN

14 of us could pick the same artist, but I doubt it. O/U on duplicate artists = 2
