All Along the Watchtower being beaten by the Smashing Pumpkins. What is wrong with you lot?? Landslide is quite a pretty little breathy guitar song, but All Along the Watchtower is a work of mightiness that burns your soul! That crying guitar..

Tell me about it. I had 6 songs in ROUND 3, and now they're ALL out except for the one song that is the lesser of all my noms. Heroes by Wallflowers.
Seriously, the way you guys vote frustrates me. Chris Cornell's Billie Jean should have won this tourney.

THE FINAL FIVE



The Fugees ~ Killing Me Softly (Roberta Flack)

Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody

The Smashing Pumpkins - Landslide

Talking Heads ~ Take Me to the River (Al Green)

The Doors-Gloria


Now here's the skinny - because we have an odd number of songs left, instead of pairing songs against each other this tournament is gonna be decided by y'all putting them in order of personal preference from 1 to 5 (with 1st being your favourite of the five remaining songs and 5th being your least favourite of them). Each position will gain that song points - 5pts for 1st ... 1pt for 5th - and the accumulated points scored by each song from all your lists will determine the finishing order.

If that's not clear enough don't hesitate to shout

In the unlikely event of there being a tie for first place I'll vote on which I prefer in order to split them.



Good idea Chyp!

I agree about Jimi. That shocked me. I voted for him each time.

That's a cool idea, Chyp. If everyone's OK with it, that's how I'll do the ending of my next thread. I didn't have an uneven amount with the Christmas thread, but I don't want a million songs to have to do again.
