I think we came up with a suitable compromise, to make that unnecessary, thank you!

Good thought there, too, re the member name, we've done it both ways, no decisive way has been concluded upon.

I don't know what the maximum number of characters is that enter in a poll space, but in an earlier message I gave a shorter version, hoping it will be short enough: Henryk Gorecki, Symphony n° 3, 2nd mvt. with Zofia Kilanowic Personally, I don't think that mentioning the member names in the poll options is that essential. Especially if/when George is putting up a YT-playlist, I don't pay attention at all to who put up what, but only to the music, and for me the member name doesn't enter into consideration (otherwise I would have always voted for Lewian's suggestions, but I discovered he has some bad taste too... ).

^^ Oh, I know I'm being persnickety here, but I realise that people may not easily link my choice to the video which is titled Ennio Morricone - "Cosa avete fatto a Solange?" due to shortening of the title and because I mentioned the singer rather than the composer who is in the title. The following still fits, and I think most people would link the Ennio name easily while still mentioning the singer as I wish to do for the purposes of this theme. It's quite often credited as an "Ennio Morricone/ Edda Dell'Orso" piece.
So I suggest this if keeping the user names which just fits:
Silvia Pérez Cruz - Mañana (Mila) or Ennio/Edda - Cosa...(L) Edited by Logan - June 03 2021 at 14:46 |

First take on Mila-13's selection:
Mila-13: Sílvia
Pérez Cruz “Mañana” Oh, how very pretty.
Simple with strings and a lilting, expressive voice. Love the bit of wistfulness in her voice,
will look up the translation after I listen through once first. There is a swell near the end, vocally for
just a perfect moment. The ends, as it
began, with simplicity and elegance.
And, yes, there was wistfulness, reading the translation. Thank you for bringing this here. |

I will honour your suggestion(s) here, I was thinking about that as well! Also, suitkees' will also likely need abbreviating. Mila-13, I will listen and think upon your addition, and am also hoping we hear from Dark Ness re the one that won't play here in the US.

I had quite a few optinos but I was late and picked one of my recent finds. Ginevra is wondeful and I was not aware of her although I'm a big fan of Italian music. So thank you very much for introducing her!

^ it will be an honour to be in the same poll option line as such a wonderful song, Mila (one of my favourite discoveries in this year-long series of Interactive polls). I haven't listened to all the choices yet so I can't say for sure how I will vote, but I loved your choice (all the more reason why I wanted it in the poll), and this will be the one time I expect to be voting for a poll option that mentions my own nomination. I wouldn't be voting for my own, of course, but for yours specifically.

@Logan We've got a 'split spot'! That's good news for me, I guess but I have no idea how that's gonna work in respect of the voting. lol But either way, we are the perfect Latin tandem. Thanks again, Logan!

If my space shares an option, both won't fit the poll option as is. I actually wondered whether I should list mine under the composer name or just the singer name (ideally it would be listed as you have). Since it's really about Edda for me, I wanted to highlight her as you have done in the list. Without the user names, "Dell'Orso-Morricone Cosa avete../ Silvia Pérez Cruz - Mañana" would just fit (without the quotes). Or if Morricone does not need to be listed, then Dell'Orso - Cosa avete fatto... or Silvia Pérez Cruz -Mañana would just fit the poll line. If you want the user names then that would require more editing. I don't care about my username being in there, but it might be nice for Mila to see her name listed if others are being listed. SO maybe "Dell'Orso - Cosa...(Log) or Silvia Pérez Cruz -Mañana (Mila)" or better yet, "Silvia Pérez Cruz -Mañana (Mila) or Dell'Orso - Cosa...(Log)", which fits without the quotes. Technicalities, I know.
If keeping the user names, which would help to differentiate, I favour as the poll option: Silvia Pérez Cruz -Mañana (Mila) or Dell'Orso -Cosa... (Log) But tweak as you see fit as there are other options to make it fit. :)

I just realized I had nominated Bent Knee in light of Lorenzo's unfortunate injury. I mean no bad karma.

I'm fine with sharing the space (my preference) or giving up my space (which I am also okay with). I really love your song choice, Mila and want that song in the poll no matter how this works out.

Hello, Mila-13, I've asked the poll team for a couple of opinions on this, will let you know very soon, I'm sure we will come to a consensus soon. And welcome in to these polls.
