    Of the five that made it to Round 2, I still have four in Round 3, which isn't bad at all considering two of them were up against each other.

    Now down to 3 of my original 10. And the one I thought has the best chance of going all the way was cut. :(

    Anyone who voted for Queen over Simple Minds....you're on my list. :mad: And I don't mean my Christmas card list.

    That's how I feel about the monsters who voted A-Ha over Sweet Child O'Mine :(

    Hence my vendetta really


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,433 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    I am actually very surprised that one of mine is still going. I honestly thought it would be knocked out on day 1 and the songs I thought were sure to make it to the very end when crashing out (to lesser opposition :p)

    BRUCE!!!! Don't let A-Ha take another rock legend :(

    And The Clash in the second one for me.

    Both infinitely better songs

    These matches have a weird tendency (for me anyway) to be either two crackers against each other that is hard to choose, or two I barely care about against each other. Simple Minds / Queen is the former category and on any given day I might have gone for it instead.

    (Does that get me out of trouble and back on your Christmas card list?)


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Take On Me - because it will really annoy some people, who probably deserve to be annoyed. Also, I like both songs fairly equally.

    Should I Stay or Should I Go - one of the few songs left that I think would be a deserving winner.
