    Vanessa Williams - Colors Of The Wind ; tough call, but this one was my nomination so will stick with it

    The Pointer Sisters - I'm So Excited ; extremely tough decision, love both, but will go with this purely for its use in the episode of Saved By The Bell where Jesse got hooked on Caffeine Pills... an iconic TV moment

    SWV - Weak ; a weak head-to-head following the above two matches

    Fats Domino - Blueberry Hill ; another difficult decision

    Vanessa Williams Colors Of The Wind v Charles & Eddy Would I Lie To You
    Marvin Gaye I Heard It Through The Grapevine v The Pointer Sisters I'm So Excited - very tough one, I will go with my beloved 80s.
    Sade Ordinary Love v SWV Weak - not my favourite song of hers, but what an amazing voice!!

    En Vogue feat. Salt N Pepa Whatta Man - not generally my kind of music, but this is a really good song
    The Supremes Baby Love
    Abstain
    Parliament Give Up The Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker) - I expect Chic to win this one, but don't want this classic to get whitewashed

    I didn't think there'd be so many tough calls to make so early on...

    En Vogue feat. Salt N Pepa - Whatta Man

    Youssou N'Dour feat. Neneh Cherry - 7 Seconds

    Toni Braxton - Unbreak My Heart

    Chic - Le Freak ; nearly had to flip a coin for this one, both are equally excellent

    Ice Cube It Was A Good Day v Albert King Born Under A Bad Sign
    Michael Jackson Human Nature v Mario Winans I Don't Want To Know
    Nina Simone My Baby Just Cares For Me v Black Eyed Peas I Gotta Feeling
    The Ronettes Be My Baby v Stevie Wonder I Just Called To Say I Love You

    That last one was tough and the other 3 easy! I'd pick Stevie over any of the first 4.
