    I'm going to have a go at coming up with 10.

    I have a few straightaway, but will be looking at the recent 80s and 90s tournaments for more inspiration. :D

    Stats so far


    PMs | 17
    Unique song | 138
    Most noms for a single song| 4
    Most songs nominated by the same act| 11

    Given the content of my PM, and the most songs by the same act, I have a feeling I know the act :D Hope I'm not wrong... In which case, are those songs really overrated of everyone feels the same way? Who are they overrated by?

    My ten nominations were an average of 2 per artist. Though the most I nominated was 3 for any one artist.

    Mine are mostly songs I dislike, but they are / have been very popular (apparently). More than one nomination for two artists in particular.

    This thread is going to be fun. :D

    We have 170 songs now.

    I would like to start this next week after the site migration, though I don't know what the schedule is for the other tournaments, don't want to clash with anyone. Nominations are still open anyway.

    Niamh mentioned in the feedback thread that the site migration will be postponed so this should clear next week a bit more :).

    Too many Bon Jovi songs submitted already? Probably fair to limit them now so to give other songs a chance.

    There'll probably be a need for a separate discussion thread on this

    So glad you have mine because if I had to send them to you again, I'd be at a loss. Honestly can't remember what I nominated now.
