    The only Amy Winehouse song I don’t like is rehab and I do like Mary and the video of her getting the tube in the morning all squashed against the windows reminds me of me. And my middle name is Mary

    Match 9 - Girls Aloud - Sound of the Underground. This was very nearly the one pop song I nominated myself, so glad someone else picked it.

    Match 10 - MGMT - Time to Pretend

    Match 11 - Gary Jules - Mad World

    Match 12 - No opinion

    Picking between James Blunt and Will Young is like choosing which method of torture you'd prefer :pac:


  • Posts: 7,967 [Deleted User]


    Match 9: Girls Aloud
    Match 10: MGMT
    Match 11: Limp Bizkit
    Match 12: James Blunt - only because it's slightly less awful and depressing than the other.

    Oddly enough, I only heard that Will Young song for the first time the other day. I don't feel I missed out on anything, it's crap.

    #9 - Do You Realize? - close but this just edges it

    #10 - Time To Pretend - nothing involving Kid Rock can ever be a good thing

    #11 - Mad World - because Limp Bizkit can fúck off

    #12 - Nope

    I'll vote Girls Aloud to even that up. Won't be voting much but I think it's a vastly underrated pop song (and I nominated it)
