    The thing I don't get is why if you're gonna nominate Hurt, why you'd go for the inferior Johnny Cash version

    And I'm not saying voting against the Dubliners makes you a west Brit globalist agitator

    But if someone did say it

    They wouldn't be wrong

    Hozier - Take Me To Church 2-2 Trash Fashion-It's A Rave Dave

    Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower 1-1 Derek and The Dominos - Layla

    Fair play to whoever nominated Bloc Party, they're massively underrated. Unlucky being drawn against the actual best song in the world!

    Audioslave - don't want to give the impression I'm a fan - they just had poor opposition.
    The High Kings
    Bocelli & Dion
    Hozier
    Clannad
    Aerosmith
    Ah, what the f*ck? Hendrix vs Clapton already? Jesus. And so many other pairings
    with both entries complete crap. Sigh. Gahhhhh... Hendrix.
