    Does that mean Nancy Sinatra's your favourite or Shirley Bassey, @karatemanchan37?

    Could you please vote in the manner @Vancouver007 and I have voted? Ensures the voting's uniformed across the tournament then - which makes it easier for me and fair for everyone else. Thanks...! :)

    Once again, it's been a week, peeps, so let's see whether we've all harmoniously come together to crown a Bond tune champion... ;)


    Event 3: Title Song Performers ~ Results

    imageimageimage


    1. image Shirley Bassey (GF, DAF, MR) = 252 points [10 points]
    2. image Paul McCartney and Wings (LALD) = 126 points [8 points]

    7. image Tom Jones (TB) = 65 points [2 points]
    8. image Chris Cornell (CR) = 64 points [1 point]
    -----------------------------------------------------
    9. -image Matt Monro (FRWL) = 60 points
    10. image Tina Turner (GE) = 35 points
    11. image Dusty Springfield (CR '67) = 29 points
    12. image Sheena Easton (FYEO) = 26 points
    13. image -A-ha (TLD) = 24 points
    14. image Garbage (TWINE) = 21 points
    15. image Rita Coolidge (OP) = 17 points
    16. image Lulu (TMWTGG) = 16 points

    19. image Madonna (DAD) = 1 point
    20. image Jack White and Alicia Keys (QOS) = 0 points
    =. -image Lani Hall (NSNA) = 0 points


    Well, I can declare that, yes, we have pulled our collective weight and decided that Shirley Bassey is well and truly the queen of the 007 title song performers. Yup, the girl from Tiger Bay has purred her way to the gold medal, peeps. Hardly much of a shocking, simply shocking shock to anyone, surely. And it's a good day in the recording studio too for Macca and co. who take the silver; in doing so, just pipping Carly 'Slap My Ass' Simon who must contend herself with the bronze. Few do it better than her and only two have when it comes warbling for the cinematic Bond.

    The next three places are filled, respectively, by Nancy Sinatra, Louis Armstrong and Duran Duran, who (thanks to their terrific performances of three terrific tunes) creditably fill out fourth, fifth and sixth. The perennial pants-attracter that is Tom Jones just edges out johnny-come-lately Chris Cornell for seventh, while golden oldie Matt Monro can feel a little aggrieved to have missed out on the scoring-points-for-your-country-in-the-Medals-Table party by finishing ninth.

    So, thanks to La Bassey winning their first gold medal of the contest, Wales move up two places to third; their tally boosted by Tom The Jones adding another couple of points too. But the big movers are the Yanks, as they jump an impressive six places up to second, nestling there snugly thanks to Ms Simon claiming their first medal of the tournament and them placing four other times in this event as well (mind you, more than half of the event's competitors were American, so you do the math ;) ).

    Elsewhere, despite putting up three entrants for Event 3, Scotland didn't gain any points as none of them finished in the top eight. It's better news south of the border, though, for England win another medal and place again, ensuring 'The Barmy Army' now has a near 30-point cushion up there in top spot.

    Event 4 coming right up, folks...! :)
