Welcome to the third Quarterfinal for Interference Desert Island VI! The premise of this game is that all of the Interferencers have been stranded on a desert island and we can only take up to 160 minutes of music with us (either as a continuous iPod playlist or two 80 minute CDs or any other format of our choosing). The object is to see which forum member can fit the most musical goodness into these 160 minutes.

The third quarterfinal match is gump and GirlsAloudFan in our final match. Below are their playlists.

Uncertain Paths

I guess every playlist is a reflection of one’s own self, so I won’t deny this one has a bit (or a lot) of myself in it. I won’t dwelve into details, as I would like to leave this open for interpretation, but the main topic here is transition into adulthood, the uncertain paths we have to choose, the dilemmas and doubts it generates. It is not all gloomy, but rather a contrast of emotions, from joy to desperation to hope for a happy ending. Concept or no concept, the playlist also has some of my favorite songs, which I hope you will enjoy. Thanks for listening!

Competition master list.


Have fun!
 
I like GAF's a lot, but he's running into a buzzsaw here. Gump's may just be the class of the tournament.
 
GAF here, who (as with DI V) used a couple songs I'm tossing about using in the next tourney once again. (Lennon and Petty)
