it would be good if they were.
maybe the producers meeting can give us a ruling.
the song i'm thinking about is a UK winner and if my memory serves me well the opening line during the contest was fluffed slightly.....just goes to show how good a song it was and still is.
'puppet on a string'................sandie shaw........she does say 'i'm like a puppet on a string' but it would be a bit harsh to deny the song as to all intents and purposes sandie is the puppet the song refers to..........GIO!!!
