Best of Nur Ein II
I reckon, if a Best of Nur Ein II album should ever be released, the track listing should probably look like this:
1. Let Me In - Puce
2. Sister Cocaine - Paco del Stinko
3. Brownie Points - Frankie Big Face
4. No One Else - Tex Beaumont & The Dirty Hearts
5. Sister Cocaine - Ross Durand
6. Let Me In - Abominominominous
7. The Thing Most Easily Forgotten - The Bovine Recyclery
8. Sister Cocaine - Bryan Kandel
9. Brownie Points - Wreckdom
10. Let Me In - Balance Lost/Balanced Regained
11. Brownie Points - Thank Glenny for the Frisbee
12. No One Else - Mersian
12. The Thing Most Easily Forgotten - Abominominominous
13. State of Emergency - Ross Durand
14. No One Else - Billys Little Trip
15. Let Me In - semicolonclosedparenthesis
- and that would be a pretty good record.
For mine, best song of Nur Ein II is a toss up between Ross Durand's State of Emergency and Paco de Stinko's Sister Cocaine.
1. Let Me In - Puce
2. Sister Cocaine - Paco del Stinko
3. Brownie Points - Frankie Big Face

12. No One Else - Mersian

High compliments, Ray! Thanks or including me, I'm proud of both of those songs and honored by being on your list.
Also I'll agree to share honors with Paco if he will

Some quick notes about the Nur Ein.
It's almost time for the next one. In 2006, it happened in March. In 2007, it happened in May. I don't wanna clash with the Smiths fight (especially since I'm looking forward to it alot), so it'll probably be in May again this year, keeping it as Songfight's Spring Classic.
A lot of Nur Ein links have gone dead as of late, especially because of Lightningmp3. So I'm asking all of those who have participated in the Nur Ein to send me copies of their entries so that I can put them all on my website for safekeeping. Please send copies of your songs to nurein.sidefight @ gmail.com and please save me some time by naming your files accordingly: (yourbandname)_(songtitle).mp3 all in lowercase.
A few people have asked about being judges this year. Puce as the current champion will be on the jury as well as myself and I believe Merisan was interested as well. Is there anyone else who expressed interest in being on the jury?
And yes, like last year, there will be a round zero.

Hmmm. A jury of me, sp00n, RG, Merisan and Puce. That's an interesting mix. Sounds like a plan.

I really found that using an alter ego was helpful in focusing, especially for Nur Ein I where my songs did seem to have a coherent thread to them. The distinction between Ray and Tex blurred in Nur Ein II, to the point where I can't actually tell the difference between them anymore.ken wrote: I might like to participate this year.

I will probably drag Tex out of mothballs again for Nur Ein III - but it looks likely that timewise it may clash with me selling my house and leaving Australia - so it may be a little tricky (my wife has been offered a job in New Zealand and I have just been offered something in Papua New Guinea - we haven't decided which one we will take yet)
