Also Starring LeVar Burton

Cloudbusting Kate Bush ; easy choice, love Kate Bush and this is one of her best

White Flag Dido ; tough call, but Dido edges it

Fast Car Tracy Chapman ; love both, but this one is amazing

Never forget you Noisettes ; this song probably grew on me the most over the past few weeks

Zaph

Gloria Laura Brannigan
One More Time Brittney spears VS White Flag Dido - ABSTAIN
All the Things She Said t.A.T.u. - not pushed about this song, but how Homer feels about Complicated is how I feel about Fast Car. There probably isn't another song in the world I despise as much, but everyone seems to love it for some strange reason.
Never forget you Noisettes

Ahhh, so that's the one you meant from List Ten! Not the one I would guessed tbh.

I actually guessed you were talking about

Berlin - Take My Breath Away, which is the one I said I hated but still gave points to because at least it wasn't Complicated!

Oh thank fúck it's finally gone!
If Complicated had only scored one single point out of 460 it would still have been too many. :mad:

Of all the songs in the world to hate, why do you hate one of the most joyous ones?

The Voice Eimear Quinn ; I don't feel or understand the love for Donna Summer

My favourite game Cardigans ; the only tough call of the round

Because it is teeth-clenchingly, eardrum-burstingly annoying.

I actually gave some (not many) points to the other Avril Lavigne songs that were nominated, (I even quite like I'm With You, which didn't get a nod) but that one has always made my blood boil.

I dunno, it just....it insists upon itself! :P

No, I'm OK with that one. Not my favourite song by any means, but I'd take it over plenty of others in the competition.

Ode to Billy Joe Bobbi Gentry ; how the f**k did the Edith Piaf one make it this far, worst song of the entire competition and that's saying something... I love Ode To Billy Joe anyway, but I'd vote anything over Edith Piaf

I Try Macy Gray ; tough call, but Macy Gray edges it here
