    Pour Some Sugar On Me

    1999

    Heaven Is A Place On Earth

    Head Over Heels

    Reasons: These 4 songs are far superior to their opposition here, and they need to be in the next round.

    R1/Match 57


    Rod Stewart - Baby Jane – Awful song.

    vs

    Def Leppard - Pour some sugar on me – Entertaining ditty. My Vote.

    R1/Match 58


    Prince – 1999 – Catchy, if a bit overplayed. My Vote.

    vs

    Walk the Dinosaur - Was Not Was – Boring.

    R1/Match 59


    Belinda Carisle - Heaven is a Place on Earth – Bland pop.

    vs

    Philip Oakey - Together in Electric Dreams – Nice melody. My Vote.

    R1/Match 60


    Tears For Fears - Head Over Heels - Just pips it for Roland’s vocal and tune. My Vote.

    vs

    Queen - Who Wants to Live Forever – Nice trading of vocals between Brian and Freddie.

    I'm absolutely gutted, mostly because Head Over Heels is a song that I have a real personal attachment to.

    It's particularly good when linked to the album track Broken.
