All Night Long - Think I accidentally voted against this last round as I wasn't paying proper attention, but thankfully it made it through. Choon!!!

Life In a Northern Town - sunchyme, innit!

Relax - prefer the other a-ha song left in the comp and Relax has grown on me over the years.

Pour Some Sugar On Me - look, I know that the Boss has the better song, but I know which one I'd rather sing at karaoke and that's Def Leppard, so it gets my vote.

Def Leppard - Pour some sugar on me

#9 - Who Wants To Live Forever, probably my favourite Queen song

#10 - Just Like Honey, great song and a real underdog in this competition

#11 - Take On Me, just a better song

#12 - Dancing In the Dark, I like the Def Leppard tune but it can't compete with one of the Boss's best

It saddens me that such a great song is better known for an awful dance remix.

To be fair, it's a pretty decent remix, but I do get what you mean as I've always been a fan of the song and the response whenever I've thrown it on at a party etc. has always been something along the lines of "Wait, this is Sunchyme/Dario G"...

Sweet Dreams - both great, but this is better

Sun Always Shines On TV - one of the best songs left in the competition

Birdhouse In Your Soul - neither of these should've progressed this far, but they've been up against weak competition, I do really like the song though.

Manic Monday - better of the two.

Just prefer the latter two tbh.

Triceratops Ballet

Eurthymics - Sweet Dreams
The Police - Dont Stand So Close To Me
Queen - A Kind Of Magic
Cher - Turn Back Time

#13 - Sweet Dreams. Not my favourite Eurythmics song (prefer Here Comes The Rain Again) but Jimmy Sommerville's voice on the Communards one is like nails on a blackboard.

#14 - The Sun Always Shines on TV - sorry Necro but it's a better song. The Police just don't do it for me.

#15 - Birdhouse In Your Soul - nice bizarre song, beats Queen at their most mediocre.

#16 - If I Could Turn Back Time - Cher has already taken out too many good songs and she must eventually be stopped....but tbh I'm more likely to listen to this than Manic Monday.
