Songtest #102: Name Names

[midnight_twelve]

Hello!

The theme this time around is songs named after names! So long as the title of the song has a first/given name somewhere in the title, it’s A-Okay. For instance, a song called Ode to Eugene would be acceptable, and also probably great, and someone should write it. Until they do however, you’ll have to make do with the wealth of other songs with someone else’s name already in the title. Get them in to me via discord or PM- you have a week, until the clocks strike 12:00 GMT on Monday the 28th of March!

You know the drill:

• You can’t submit a song that’s been submitted to a previous songtest
• If some tryhard finds a song that’s over ten minutes, the rest of us only have to listen to those first ten
• When it comes time to vote, you rank your top ten songs like this: your favourite gets 12 points, second favourite gets 10, then 8,7,6,5,4,3,69,2,1 (There's not actually a 69)
• I think that’s it!

I look forward to your musics!

It is finally time for results!

First of all, we had three disqualifications, so let’s look at where they would have placed:
Timothy (Submitted by Buko) received 13 votes, and would have come thirteenth- maybe it is an unlucky number…
Emilia (Submitted by Jilly) received 34 votes including one ten, which would have put it in eleventh place…
And Eleanor Rigby (Submitted by RC) received 62 votes, including two tens- enough to have put it in second place!
