Week one of the Facebook Fun Friday Fray got off to a
rollicking start, with answers ranging from the contemporary Grammy-winning
dulcet sounds of Adele (courtesy of FFFF’s self-appointed co-founder Mike O’Neill)
to the classic Motown stylings of Frakie Valli and the 4 Seasons. We had a splash of modern pop culture heartbreak
back story in the form of Kanye’s anti-love song to Amber Rose, and we even had
a little bit of attempted rule bending in the form of multiple answers (mostly
by people named Andy…) Overall I was pleased
with the wide variety of musical genres and years represented in the answers. Clearly bad breakups and the songs that nurse
us through are cross-generational. However,
despite the multitude of feisty, fun, (and one especially) filthy answers,
there can be only one winner, so without further ado…
Winner, Week 1: Meatloaf’s “Two Outta Three Ain’t Bad,
submitted by my esteemed uncle Andy Treesh.
Great song by a great artist (even if his “acting” career was poorly
thought out), and one of America’s best singer of breakup songs we love to belt
out in our showers and cars.
Runner Up, Week 1: Me, actually. Further proving my awesomeness. Or the love that my FB friends have for songs
sung by Canadian vegans jilted by Uncle Joey from Full House. I’ll just let you all think about that for a
few minutes. Sadly, no points awarded
for runner ups (runners-up?) in the current scoring scheme of FFFF, though this
could be up for discussion in the future.
Hat of Shame, Week 1: By unanimous vote of FFFF’s board of
directors (ie Mike and me), no H.O.S. will be awarded for week 1, as everyone
came up with decent answers.
