    Maniac 2000 looks like an outside dark horse to me, lot of momentum going for it. Sure you're glad to hear that Homer :pac:

    I like Kelis but have never been a fan of Milkshake.

    If anyone is looking for me, I’ll be in the corner crying

    Surprised to see so much disdain for Amy Winehouse, wasn't a fan of her version of Valerie but both Rehab and Back to Black are great tunes imo.

    I find it impossible to agree that those are the 8 worst songs still in play when absolute shíte like Complicated and Maniac 2000 gets voted through. Ms Jackson is a brilliant tune, Pokerface is decent (though not my favourite by Gaga). I like Kelis but have never been a fan of Milkshake.

    Complicated is a modern masterpiece... you're not only wrong Fong, but you're embarrassing yourself... Go listen to some Amy Winehouse, the most overrated artist of all-time, and wallow in your wrongness...

    :D

    Complicated is probably a bit, well, complicated if you like a song that rhymes "go, go, go" with "no, no, no" :p

    Strawbs decided this a while back too

    Crap, I missed the voting for this, would have been a different result.

    M.I.A - Paper Planes 4 - 6 Oasis - The Importance of Being Idle

    mustang shelly's votes manage to resolve 3 of the outstanding previous matches.

    Gotta say the last one is a bit surprising imo, thought Paper Planes would go through there.

    Valerie-off needs one vote either way to resolve

    Match 33 Valerie :D

    Serious comeback by Amy Winehouse. Was 5-2 down if I recall correctly.

    Hero - loves me some Anna kournikova
    Like a stone - My nomination
    Drive - not incubus' best song but still a good tune
