    Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill Vs Bruce Springsteen - Streets of Philadelphia - Not mad about either song, but neither are massively over-rated - that said!

    Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas Vs Pinkfogn - Baby Shark - Have to vote for my nomination, but I think it's secure!

    Boney M - Rivers of Babylon Vs U2 - City of Blinding Lights

    Round 2

    Most votes in 1 hour.

    If there is a tie, 30 mins Golden Vote rule, followed by least conceded in the previous round followed by my vote

    P.S. The most nominated song was eliminated in round 1

    Meatloaf - Two out of three ain't bad Vs Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Thrift Shop

    Disturbed - Sound Of Silence Vs The Beatles - Yesterday - It's a song that I really liked over the years, but it did become somewhat overrated, despite its greatness!

    The Beatles - Yellow Submarine Vs U2 - Beautiful Day - Both songs are okay, but maybe slightly overrated. U2's one just barely tips the scales.

    Boney M - Rivers of Babylon Vs Keala Seattle - This Is Me - This is a strange match. The first is most definitely overrated and I would have voted for it until I heard the second. I'm not familiar with it, but I really don't like it. Therefore, it's hard to say if it is overrated and, if so, if it is more. PASS.
