Collaboration Abomination that was a Global Megahit reaching the Top 5 in Most Countries a) being nominated in the first place and b) actually being voted for by people, is everything wrong with these tournament games, and for the sake of the future of the human race I'd vote for the execution of anyone facilitating its progression in this game...
I've never heard it though that isn't a great benchmark
In fact I'm only familar with 7 songs (shamefully I haven't listened to them all
) that others have nominated. I think that total might be pretty low, would be intetested to know how many songs the rest if tou knew

Without looking back at the whole list, off the top of my head, not counting the 20 I nominated myself, I probably knew about two dozen or so other songs, and there were probably only about a dozen overall that I hadn't heard of the artist even if the songs were unfamiliar to me

Tbh most of the "hidden gems" are pretty shite anyways 😂
Haven't heard of any really bar my own noms. And it's a bit ridiculous complaining about other people's nominations when you didn't even take it seriously and just entered 10 GOAT songs anyways

Well I didn't
JUST nominate 10 GOAT Songs, because I nominated 20 songs, so well done on being wrong, as usual
