    EDIT: I just don't get this love for Don't You Forget About Me. I think it's one of their more bland songs.

    Oh, Declan. I’ll try!
    For me, it’s just one of the iconic 80s songs. I know where I was when I first heard it, I remember how I was feeling & hearing it now allows me to float on that wave of nostalgia, misery, hope, heartbreak etc. The Breakfast Club association didn’t hurt either!

    I’m sure you have songs too that, for some reason, just stay with you, bring you back or that you just plain like!

    Ah nevermind :) I'm happy out, most of my stuff usually goes out in the very early stages of these contests.

    The exception being the worst song ever contest where they went the distance and one of them won :eek:

    I wasn't expecting most of them to make it out of the first round anyway, tbh, so I'm not surprised at all.
