Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
If you can trust him with your e-mail, and put up with a couple bogus entries about Nickelback or Sherbert, the e-mailling works pretty good.

As I said in the thread of the just-ended DRC Madness #28, we could vote for our favorite black actors. That means all actors: male, female or "other." (We woke people no longer use the word "actress.") We could also vote for our favorite Disney movies – or our favorite movie musicals
That's why we do a certain decade. As they were active mainly in the 60's and 70's.
If we do the 80's, Rick Astley could win.
IMO "black actors" is a slippery slope regarding qualifications for the category. Kinda like considering Elizabeth Warren in a list of Native American politicians. And while I've seen a number of Disney movies, I stopped watching them around the same time IRBS gave up on new music. So I probably haven't seen half of them, and I honestly can't remember much about them, except for the ones where we play the soundtracks in community band.
How about voting for the all-fime greatest baseball players, football players, basketball players or hockey players?
Which sports leagues have we done or not done? I think we did MLB right?
We never covered best/favorite athletes, I like that idea.

In July 2018, we voted for best NFL team. In July 2019, we voted for best MLB team and best MLB player. Return with me now to yesteryear.....

Idea for a Madness: Worst #1 song. We could do it of several decades: worst #1 song of the 70s (clearly this one is that stupid nameless horse), the 80s, 90s, etc. Then we could run the worst of each decade against each other. If we do by decade I would end with the 2000s. If all together, end with the year before the broke the chart.
I like that idea! There have been many really horrible songs that made it to number one. Here are a few:
The Spaniard That Blighted My Life – Al Jolson (May 1913)
The Aba Daba Honeymoon – Arthur Collins & Byron Harlan (November 1914)
Oh How She Could Yacki Hacki Wicki Wachi Woo – Arthur Collins & Byron Harlan (November 1916)
All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth – Spike Jones & George Rock (December 1948)
The Purple People Eater – Sheb Wooley (June 1958)
Kung Fu Fighting – Carl Douglas (December 1974)
Rock Me Amadeus – Falco (March 1986)
Ice Ice Baby – Vanilla Ice (November 1990)
I'm Too Sexy – Right Said Fred (February 1992)

Informer – Snow (March 1993)
Bump N' Grind – R. Kelly (April 1994)
Hot In Herre – Nelly (June 2002)
There are so many from 2003 to 2023, it would take me an hour to list them all!

The Spaniard That Blighted My Life was written by British music hall performer Billy Merson. Here are the original lyrics:
List to me while I tell you of the Spaniard that blighted my life
List to me while I tell you of the man who pinched my future wife
'Twas at the bull fight where we met him, we'd been watching his daring display
And while I'd gone out for some nuts and a programme, the dirty dog stole her away
Oh, yes! Oh, yes! But I've sworn that I'll have my revenge
If I catch Alphonso Spagoni the Toreador, with a mighty swipe I will dislocate his bally jaw
I'll find this bullfighter, I will, and when I catch the bounder, the blighter I'll kill
He shall die, he shall die, he shall die, tiddly-i-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti! He shall die, he shall die
For I'll raise a bunion on his Spanish onion If I catch him bending tonight
Yes, when I catch Spagoni, he will wish that he'd never been born
And for this special reason, my stiletto I've fetched out of pawn
It cost me five shillings to fetch it, this expense it has caused me much pain
But the pawnbroker's promised, when I've killed Spagoni, he'll take it in pawn once again
Oh, yes! Oh, yes! So tonight there will be dirty work
[Chorus]
I tracked him to London and he gave me the slip once again
And they told me this morning that he'd doubled and gone back to Spain
But whatever it costs me, I'll catch him, then no more he will give me the slip
With my last one-and-nine-pence, on Sunday I'm going to Spain by the Sunday League Trip.
Oh, yes! Oh, yes! And then the dark deed will be done
[Chorus]
Jolson made a few changes to the lyrics, such as changing "pinched" to "stole" and "Alphonso" to "Antonius" and he eliminated the third verse.
List to me while I tell you of the Spaniard that blighted my life

I like that idea and I like that song.
Unfortunately, we all know in Madness the Beatles usually win and they probably have a worst #1 song. I would nominate.
"We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine"
omg it's so annoying!
I like some of those songs, like.
Kung Fu Fighting – Carl Douglas (December 1974)
Rock Me Amadeus – Falco (March 1986)
Ice Ice Baby – Vanilla Ice (November 1990)
I'm Too Sexy – Right Said Fred (February 1992)
Baby Got Back – Sir Mix-A-Lot (July 1992)
Hot In Herre – Nelly (June 2002)
If anyone nominates a Nickelback song. You will be banned from Madness!
