    Started well but lost a lot of nominations as things went on

    Papa Roach - Last Resort 5-1

    Avril Lavigne - Complicated 5-0

    Puddle Of Mudd - Blurry 3-5

    Slipknot - Snuff 3-5 to a song I've never heard of!

    Pearl Jam - Just Breather 2-5 to Snow Patrol Chasing Cars so no shame in that

    Offspring - Want you bad - 1-5. Had high hopes for this one

    Six nominations that no one else selected, if I understand the rules correctly. Would have thought there would be more love for Avril but my love for her is enough for anyone ;)

    I was surprised by the Lady Gaga nomination. I would of thought she was the 10's. Surely she hasn't been around that long!

    Pokerface was 2009 I think, so I presume some singles were 2008 or thereabouts.

    Last Resort and Complicated were in my Top 13 and I just missed the cut at the final hurdle. Glad you nominated them and they've progressed to the competition proper.
