    Current scores:

    Shaggy - It Wasn't Me 0 - 6 Eminem - Lose Yourself
    The Coral - Dreaming of you 3 - 2 Muse - Uprising
    Audioslave - Cochise 0 - 6 White Stripes - Seven Nation Army
    The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition 2 - 4 Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
    The Verve - Love Is Noise 2 - 4 Linkin Park - In The End
    Kings of Leon - Use Somebody 3 - 3 Linkin Park - Numb
    Mic Christopher - Heyday 2 - 4 Eminem feat. Dido - Stan
    Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams 3 - 3 Stereophonics - Dakota

    Eminem and White Stripes whitewash their competition, the other matches very much in the balance yet.

    Linkin Park both songs

    Numb was my nomination and in the end was another classic

    Stereophonics Dakota - heard them as the warm up for pearl jam in Milan a few years ago and didn't realise how good a tune this is

    Kings of Leon - Use Somebody 4 - 6 Linkin Park - Numb
    Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams 5 - 5 Stereophonics - Dakota

    Numb through, lassykk with the deciding vote. Dead Heat in two of the above matches

    Any Winehouse - Valerie 2 - 5 The Zutons - Valerie
    Evanescence - My Immortal 4 - 4 Feeder - Feeling A Moment
    Arctic Monkeys - when the sun goes down 4 - 3 The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health
    M.I.A - Paper Planes 4 - 3 Oasis - The Importance of Being Idle

    Feeder pegs an early Evanescence rush back and the score is tied. All to play for in these 4 matches yet though Zutons are one vote away

    Does Lassykk just sit around and wait for match ups that need a deciding vote?

    Ok I'll give Boulevard of Broken Dreams a vote, not mad about it but certainly much less annoying than Dakota.

    Well I was very close to losing 3 out of 4 of my nominees in these rounds, and now 3 out of the 4 had progressed (two went head to head so was losing one regardless of what else happened) - before the competition started I actually thought Clint Eastwood was a real contender for the winner so seeing it almost lose to Sweet Disposition was a very tense moment. ;)

    Linkin Park - Shadow of the Day
    - it's nothing like their best but I despise that Katy Perry song. As does she, apparently

    Match 38, abstain

    The Killers - Smile Like You Mean It
    - I do like Since You've Been Gone, but this is a great Killers tune

    Match 40, abstain, meh

    Linkin Park - Shadow of the Day ; not the best Linkin Park, but it's still Linkin Park so get my vote

    Leann Rimes - Can't Fight The Moonlight ; battle of the movie soundtracks, and was a close call.

    Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone ; tough call, as it's one of the better Killers song, but Since U Been Gone reminds me of a close group of college friends.

    Sum 41 - In Too Deep ; easiest decision of the round... never warmed to Arcade Fire.

    M.I.A - Paper Planes 4 - 6 Oasis - The Importance of Being Idle

    mustang shelly's votes manage to resolve 3 of the outstanding previous matches.

    Gotta say the last one is a bit surprising imo, thought Paper Planes would go through there.

    Valerie-off needs one vote either way to resolve

    Kelly Clarkson Since You’ve Been Gone. An absolute stomper and I don’t care who says otherwise. Kings of Leon can f*ck off. I wish absolute harm and famine on them.

    I see the gig going, skinny jeaned, converse wearing, "I loved the Kings of Leon before Sex on Fire", over-35 crowd have knocked Paper Planes out.


    What a joke.
