The Greatest Showman ; Nay
always found this songs a bit meh, think the title song is much better

never understood the hype surrounding this lad, find it all very bland

another of my nominations, she has such a great voice, and just a really well put together song

Adele ; Nay
never heard this one before, but not one of her better songs

Bastille ; Yay
forgot about this one actually, 'tis a good song, probably not a winner, but like it enough for Round 1

Yay for YONAKA, Blake Shelton, Clean Bandit, Carrie Underwood, Bastille
Nay for all the rest

Lots of country & western going on - was 2010s a C&W decade? Also a lot of The Voice judges popping up. Adam Levine is an amazing singer but some of his Maroon 5 stuff is poor

Late entry brings us up to 258 songs with 30 songs now having multiple nominations. Thanks for your picks Mighty Quinn!

That's it though, I've a spreadsheet to organise after work and a Movie Walrus to attend
