Objection

Aces (1 point):

Matt Cardle - When We Collide: Claw75

the actual song is "Many of Horror". Cardle and Cowell ruined this Biffy Clyro classic.

As much as I agree with this, and as much as Id love to let this get through, the song released by Matt Cardle was named "When we Collide".

Sigh...

But Im also a fair and just person. Just because I have a personal vendetta against Cowell and his millions of drooling minions, I cant change the title Sad

OBJECTION

A city, not a county. It's a ceremonial county ONLY, which the question did not ask for.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_counties_by_population

Both listed as Counties in Wikipedia list. West Midlands is listed as a Metropolitan County, Bristol is classed as Unitary.

Reasons for either not being an actual county? Im pretty hazy on the difference between ceremonial counties and normal counties, so if you can convice me Ill let it go Wink

I am wrong on Bristol

Bristol is unusual in having been a city with county status since medieval times. The county was expanded to include suburbs such as Clifton in 1835, and it was named a county borough in 1889, when the term was first introduced.[19] However, on 1 April 1974, it became a local government district of the short-lived county of Avon.[50] On 1 April 1996, it regained its independence and county status, when the county of Avon was abolished and Bristol became a Unitary Authority.[51]

carry on

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Midlands_(county)

As far as I can read, the metropolitan county continues to exist in law and as a geographic frame of reference.

Claire, awesome grass, I must have been in auto mode when I marked that one! Changing scores to show this...
