    99 red balloons Nena - Because The Night Patti Smith - Patti Smith because I'm shocked that People Have The Power didn't qualify.
    Ironic Alanis Morisette - Sleeping Satellite Tasmin Archer - one of my nominations, her debut album is an all time favourite
    Somebody To Love Jefferson Airplane - Altar Machineart - Recent discovery that I really like
    Black Horse and The Cherry Tree, Live on Later With Jools Holland KT Tunstall - Love is a battlefield Pat Benator - same as Altar.

    Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush ; Kate Bush is awesome and Mariah is the worst

    Spectrum - Florence + The Machine ; another of mine that made it through prelims

    What's Love Got To Do With It - Tina Turner

    My Immortal - Evanescence ; can't believe Amy Lee's solo stuff DNQ'd

    All I want for xmas Mariah Carey VS Wuthering Heights Kate Bush - as much as I'd love to make LeVar explode by helping Mariah through, Wuthering Heights is too special to go out here.

    Spectrum Florence + The Machine VS Stop dragging my heart around Stevie Nicks - tough matchup, love Stevie but Florence just edges it.

    what's love got to do with it Tina Turner VS 9 to 5 Dolly Parton - one of my favourites by Tina Turner, not one of my favourites by Dolly Parton.

    My Immortal Evanescence VS thank you Alanis Morissette - certainly better than Ironic, I like both of these songs but prefer Alanis as an artist.



    I love how Strawbs has put so much work into this tournament for us but in the end we're all still probably gonna bitch about whatever the result is! :D

    We will probably end up with a good winner at the end regardless, but its the great songs we lose along the way in favour of inferior bollocks that winds people up. There's no accounting for taste though, so it's inevitable.

    Faux outrage is just part of the fun of these tournaments, but if anyone is genuinely pissed off, they'd wanna have a word with themselves... ;)

    Time to Say Goodbye Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman VS You got the love (Live from The Albert Hall) Florence & The Machine - love Florence but never cared for her cover of You Got the Love

    Rolling in the deep Adele VS Fade Into You Mazzy Star - sad "Into Dust" didn't make it through but glad to see one Mazzy Star song make it.

    Jolene Dolly Parton VS Rescue Me Fontella Bass - Jolene is better than 9 to 5, would be disappointed if that qualified and this didn't.

    What's Up? 4 Non Blondes VS Be My Baby The Ronettes - honestly surprised What's Up? even qualified, thought it would have split opinion too much.
