I'll give one final vote to Pearl Jam to finish the remaining match.
I like the 80s Violent Femmes more.

May I make a suggestion, rather than assigning all voters a value of 1 when they vote, can we lower that value for some people? For example those who voted against Oasis, now have .5 (half a point) when voting?

No because that rule might have to be applied to Mariah Carey if she's been nominated and the sooner she's out the better.....
