Audiolympics (VII)



Penultimate day of the Audiolympic Games and a crowd sport, the one that ignites great passion in people, is played today: Yep, FOOTBALL. I am probably coming over as a grumpy old monster but yet for some reason it is fine for someone to walk up to all of you and publicly declare in your face that I h-a-t-e football. And, as you will see listen, Belle & Sebastian totally agree with me. What nice guys! Anyway, here you've got the tunes! Press the following link here to cast your votes.
