    Nearly nominated it myself. We've very different tastes, I think. But at least we've a tiny bit of commonality.

    Well that's 7 of my 10 gone. :( Of my other three, only one is definitely into Round 3, the other two haven't come up yet.

    Farewell, my fallen loves:

    Björk - Bachelorette (Round 1)
    Madonna - Frozen - (Round 1)
    Lauryn Hill - Doo Wop (That Thing) (Round 1)
    Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Into My Arms (Round 1)
    Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out) (Round 2)
    The Breeders - Cannonball (Round 2)
    Massive Attack - Teardrop (Round 2) - I actually thought this was the most likely of my list to win!

    Pretty sure that last round's long decided now but fwiw I'd have gone with Kiss From a Rose, Black Hole Sun, Killing In The Name Of and Insomnia.

    Dammit, I missed the voting tonight and Cannonball only went out by a single vote. :(

    Down to my last two now, but neither has come up yet, so I could be completely out of the reckoning by the end of this round.

    By my calculations, my third nomination in this round got through - Depeche Mode, Enjoy the Silence: and I didn't even vote in their match!

    I have had more luck in this round (Round 2). All my nominations that reached this round progressed to the next round. That's 100% of those that had got through to Round 2! To be fair, there were only three nominations involved! They will probably all be wiped out at the next round!
