> [@Ponch8](#): > > “H” has more potential submissions on my list than the previous letters did. I will need to assemble a blue-ribbon panel to narrow my list down to five, so it may take up to 24 hours before my list of five songs appears. My blue-ribbon panel has identified the following five songs for me to nominate: [Hunt You Down](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lva6mOeZheU&pp=ygUTaHVudCB5b3UgZG93biBLZXNoYQ%3D%3D) - Kesha (2017) Habits (Stay High) - Tove Lo (2013) Halo - Beyoncé (2009) Hate It or Love It - The Game ft. 50 Cent (2005) Hold On, We’re Going Home - Drake ft. Majid Jordan (2013) The panel has also rank-ordered four other songs in case we are allowed to submit more nominations. ---

> [@Ponch8](#): > > “H” has more potential submissions on my list than the previous letters did. Same here. I had a dozen potential nominees for this thread; most I’ve had for any previous letter was six. At least two of the songs I didn’t nominate, I expect other posters to do so, but that’ll still leave me a few if mmm allows each of us some more nominations. ---
