    The Commitments - Whiter Shade of Pale (The Commitments). Love the scene in the film too.

    Chuck Berry - You Never Can Tell (Pulp Fiction)

    Richard Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries (Apocalypse Now). Transcendent.

    Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (Wayne's World). Iconic piece of sound and video

    Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes - Up Where We Belong (An Officer and a Gentleman). Maniac got ran into the ground for me.

    SO I wanna vote for Chuck Berry anyway so don;t mind this, but I think Percy Faith was knocked out in the last round though?

    Only course of remediation here is to reinstate the Pixies I reckon

    Am I playing this right?

    Do I choose which song I prefare out of the two versing each other?
    If I don't like both songs do I just not vote at all?? As in, should I vote for one anyway, or just skip that all together?
