    Some cheese in this round :D I might annoy a few people with my reasons.

    53. Staring at the Sun - A very under-rated U2 album in my opinion. Loved it.

    54. I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing - I just never got Gomez.

    55. Friends In Low Places - Not particularly a fan but the Utah Saints one just sounded like noise. I'd have loved it back in my clubbing days but not so much at my desk on headphones. Also, Kate Bush really leaves me cold.

    56. No Rain was another one I didn't think I knew until I hit play. The other one probably could be better with just the female vocalist and the dance track.

    Cranberries

    Backstreet Boys

    I'd be flipping a coin (and not in a good way) in the other two match-ups which would be unfair, so I'll abstain.
