Voting is now open for Pun Fun 7.
This time out you were challenged to insert a reference to a capital city into a popular song title. And between you you've come up with what can only be described as an interesting and varied selection. Thanks to everyone who submitted an entry, and give yourselves a collective bonus point for resisting the temptation to suggest some Seoul music.
Voting is open to all readers not just those who entered. Let me know your top five in order of preference. I'll award 7 points for every first choice, 5 for second and then 3, 2 and 1 for the rest.
You can either submit your votes in the comments section below or by email to leggies27@hotmail.co.uk if you would rather preserve the sanctity of the ballot.
The deadline for voting is Saturday (11 July) and the results will be announced first thing on Sunday. Normally voting closes on the Sunday and the results are announced on the Monday, but I am off on my travels again on Sunday morning so need to fit it in before then. We can't leave you all on tenterhooks until I get back.
Here are capitals that made the cut:
- Bern Baby Bern - Ash
- Pyongyang-a-lang - Bay City Rollers
- Get Out of My Dreams, Get Into Dakar- Billy Ocean
- Its Oslo Quiet – Bjork
- Nobody Does It Ulaanbaatar - Carly Simon
- I'm Tallinn You Now - Freddie & The Dreamers
- (Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Djibouti - KC & The Sunshine Band
- Tashkent Get You Out Of My Head - Kylie Minogue
- Mouldy Old Doha - Lieutenant Pigeon
- Nuuk What They've Done To My Song Ma - Melanie
- When Amman Loves A Woman - Percy Sledge
- Pretty In Minsk – Psychedelic Furs
- Beat On The Bratislava - Ramones
- Hurry Up Harare - Sham 69
- Pulling Brussels (From The Shell) – Squeeze
- Making Plans For Taipei - XTC
Before we leave, here are the official sponsors of this edition of Pun Fun with an important message to you all.
