Time differences had me sleeping through this reveal, so very pleasant to wake up to.
Story goes Dylan saw the rushes for the scene in the evening, went away, came back the next morning and presented Peckinpah with the finished song.
Thanks again Risky for the reveal…and the win

A fellow Seal fan???

RiskyFlush · February 22, 2020, 11:01pm

This is the version for me.

Rivaldo · February 22, 2020, 11:55pm

Lollllllllll

My next pick is me favorite of my five. No idea what Risky’s going to think of it

cassette · February 25, 2020, 4:49am

Oh and also I think I missed which of the last bunch was prognosticated as the “Walrus’s most controversial pick yet” or something like that.

RiskyFlush · February 25, 2020, 4:51am

I think people by and large were rustled with where I put Moon River.

I was surprised myself, but I often don’t know how to rank an entry until I’ve fully explored it in a writeup.

cassette · February 25, 2020, 4:52am

Ah, gotcha.

zikzak · February 25, 2020, 4:59am

I like Mancini quite a bit more than the average person, but I don’t particularly care for Moon River.

RiskyFlush · February 25, 2020, 5:06am

Oh man, that is a good one. I especially love the phrase in 1:30 to 1:35. Do you have any favorite parts?

zikzak · February 25, 2020, 5:08am

I love the end where the piano tumbles down into drunken fatalism.

cassette · February 25, 2020, 5:12am

an undertitle for ya

RiskyFlush · February 25, 2020, 5:12am

I was gonna try to say something smart but I think I’d just come across like this scene. Thank you for linking the song :)

cassette · February 25, 2020, 5:15am

Since it’s be unfair for anyone to have to compete with this, I thought I’d post the best “Song that makes you believe in love”. Get it out of the way before the next contest.

Any update ? @RiskyFlush

RiskyFlush · March 2, 2020, 12:41am

I am in the scoring phase. These are hard. “A song that excites you.” I don’t think I’ve ever heard any of these submissions before. And here I thought everyone would submit MmmBop.

RiskyFlush · March 2, 2020, 12:52am

It is a good pick regardless of placement. I was gonna comment more but don’t want to spoil.
