    Nickelback - When We Stand Together ; excellent song, it's about being sound to each other and making the world a better place, which probably explains why so many miserable sh*ts around here hate it... ;)

    Tame Impala - Feels Like We Only Go Backwards ; quite like both songs, but this one I think could be a contender to go deep into the tournament

    Local Natives - When Am I Gonna Lose You ; one of my personal favourite songs of the decade, hence me nominating it, but like Tame Impala I think it has a better chance of going far into the competition

    Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Thrift Shop ; again I like both songs, this one I think is just the more memorable of the two and standouts more as a 2010s song

    Match 1 - Shut up and Dance. Catchy and an earworm.

    Match 2 - Tame Impala because Snow Patrol suck.

    Match 3 - Local Natives

    Match 4 - Macklemore. Undeniably a huge track at the time.

    Lily Allen - Hard Out Here ; this has grown on me a lot since the prelims, and just a more interesting than Titanium

    Biffy Clyro - Bubbles ; this was a tough one as I love both songs, would be happy to see either go through, but a vote for Bubble by the slightest of margins

    Florence and the Machine - Spectrum ; my favourite Florence & The Machine song, absolute banger of a tune

    Sia - Chandelier ; like both of these, but Chandelier is one of the standout songs of the decade and I only heard Something Just Like This for the first time the other day

    I'm going to put Biffy Clyro through.

    I'm not enamoured with that Artic Monkeys song (or them in general) whereas I think Biffy are under-rated.

    So with that being said:

    Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know? 6 7 Biffy Clyro - Bubbles

    But all is not lost for Artic Monkeys, they will have another chance in match 64 to get back into the contest...
