    Match 22: Mysterious Girl - Peter Andre because I just can't with the other one.

    Match 23: Kiss From a Rose - Seal because baby I compare you to a kiss from a rose!!!

    Match 24: Who's In The House - Fr Brian and the Fun Lovin' Cardinals because it's a bit of craic.

    Match 25: The Ballad of Chasey Lain - Bloodhound Gang because it's both terrible and brilliant at the same time.

    Match 26: Wind It Up - Gwen Stefani because I can't listen to the Blobby song without wanting to tear my ears off.

    You didn't thank mine, I guess because I gave no reason. So, The Birdie Song becuase it's fun and there's a dance that goes with it.

    Above are my picks, better songs in the matches imo


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Match 27: Madness - House of Fun because it's fun, and a great song. The other one is rubbish.

    Match 28: Psy - Gangnam Style because I prefer it a little bit more, but actually both of these are great and its a shame they're against each other.

    Match 29: Joe Dolce - Shaddap Ya Face because Big Accordion Solo!!!

    Match 30: Monty Python - Always Look On The Bright Side of Life because it's Monty Python.

    Match 31: Vengaboys - Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!! because this is what I wanna do.

    Match 32: The Trashmen - The Surfin' Bird because it's a catchier song.

    Match 32: The Trashmen - The Surfin' Bird because it's a catchier song.

    These 5 because they are all better category fits + jumbo breakfast roll which I think could go all the way.

    The surfin bird is the one I want to win though. Be class!
