    Haha sorry! Too late to cancel your deal with the devil?

    I really thought Teenage Dirtbag had a shot at winning the whole thing. That was one intense showdown with Lose Yourself. Would've made for an interesting final, as I think with extra time and more people voting it could've gone the other way.

    Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head 8 6 Mark Mc Cabe - Maniac 2000
    The Strokes - Last Night 7 7 Foo Fighters - The Pretender
    Pink - Just Like A Pill 8 7 Linkin Park - In The End

    Kylie can't get out of Mark Mc Cabe's head and bounces into the next round.

    Vote switcharoos mean the Pretender and The Strokes are still level.... there will be no more changing from the quarters onwards.

    Vote a song, you're stuck with it.

    Pink also progresses after Linkin Park... actually do you know what, that pun is a bit too close to the bone so I'm gonna leave it.

    It took cheating to knock it out. Gallant effort.

    Franz Ferdinand - Liked this the first time I heard it, not a massive fan of Eminem
    White Stripes - I like the white stripes, it's one of my nominations, gorillaz doesn't do much for me
    Kylie - again one of my nominations, and not Pink's strongest song
    The Strokes - way better song than eminem

    All four of these were nominations of mine.

    Eminem feat. Dido - Stan better song by far

    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood the other song is brilliant at being so ****ing average and boring i'd vote my fire alarm over it zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz


    Head Pink - Just Like A Pill Love a bitta pink


    Eminem - Lose Yourself Better song

    The Killers - Mr Brightside 5 8 Eminem feat. Dido - Stan

    The Killers drive themselves off the freeway as Stan's tea stays warm and Eminem makes the quarters

    You counted this wrong, there was a vote for Eminem and Leann rimes, wasn’t for these match ups.

    My vote is for the killers

    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out This is my nomination so as much as I love Stan I want to make the final.


    White Stripes - Seven Nation Army this is a good tune


    Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head. Kylie is always better than pink. Good things come in small packages (like me). Also my nomination


    Eminem - Lose yourself I love Eminem deserves to progress.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,387 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Match 3

    The Killers - Mr Brightside

    Match 4

    White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

    This would make it 7-7


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out - quality tune and Stan is overrated

    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood - one of my favourite songs of the decade and as I already mentioned the Italians ruined Seven Nation Army for me, back in 2006.

    P!nk - Just Like A Pill - one of P!nk's best songs and lets get rid of Kylie before the semis; we don't need any pure pop sh*t winning this thing.

    The Strokes - Last Night - actually like both of these songs almost equally, but Last Night is just a fraction better for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,493 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out Eminem feat. Dido - Stan

    One of my nominations, and my favourite Eminem song. And just noticed that I nominated the other one too, but Stan is still a better song

    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

    Another of my nominations, both good tunes, but prefer White Stripes

    Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head Pink - Just Like A Pill

    Kylie, better song, better singer

    The Strokes - Last Night Eminem - Lose Yourself

    The Strokes as I've already done my bit for Eminem and its a better song


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,359 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Eminem feat. Dido - Stan, great lyrics, great video, big eminem fan back when that album was released

    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood, kinda edgy at rhe time and my mate mick does like 7 nations
    Pink - Just Like A Pill, touch choice, just think its a better song
    Eminem - Lose Yourself, my last nom standing, excellent song, would be a worthy winner.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,941 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Match 1: Franz Ferdinand (my nomination - that Franz Ferdinand album is one of top 10 noughties albums)
    Match 2: Gorillaz (it is fun and it has Damon on vocals)
    Match 3: Kylie (such a dancefloor filler!!! nanana!!)
    Match 4: Eminem (Eminem's best song ever!!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,387 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    I want the Killers reinstated


    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out
    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
    Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head
    The Strokes - Last Night


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Stan - Insulting that this is even a match up. Take Me Out has no business being this deep into the competition.

    Seven Nation Army - More iconic song. Quarter final is about right for Gorillaz.

    Like a Pill - The cabal will be rounding up votes for Kylie. Like a Pill is the better song.

    Lose Yourself - Another no contest. Comical match up. The Strokes must have had some very generous draws to make it this far. Rubbish song sung be a pretentious wanker.

    holy **** did someone just say mingoue was a better singer then pink

    Call the insane asylum someone has escaped

    #3 Pink - Just Like a Pill.
    Just because I think the Kylie one is vastly overrated ( I like some of her other stuff but that one has always left me cold) Whereas Just Like a Pill is probably one of Pink's best

    No strong opinion on the others tbh
