Excellent Final 2 - possibly the toughest final decision I've had to make in a tournament ever.
Before the votes are read and the winner announced, thanks once again @Kol for another whopper tournament.
RE: FOGs Greatest Second Single - jp liz v1 - 14-10-2023
A great tournament @Kol and two worthy great final songs
RE: FOGs Greatest Second Single - ShaneU - 14-10-2023
Voted against Linkin Park since round 2, they have better songs
RE: FOGs Greatest Second Single - Declan A Walsh - 14-10-2023
As always, great hosting by @Kol . There were many interesting entries along the way, plus a few dubious ones! It is all a matter of opinion (and subjective taste) of course, but, personally, I would not have either of the two remaining finalists near the semi-finals, never mind the final! I voted against both of them in the semi-finals and the votes were close. Who knows what the outcome would be had there been more taking part? I voted for and against each of them at different stages of the contest, so I do like them to some extent! The one that I will give my vote to possibly is quarter-final material, and I do not think the other is quite at that level.

With just the 5 votes in so far, I will leave it until tomorrow. If you have been following along and haven't voted in the game so far, you're welcome to vote in the final

Apologies Kol, I wasn't able to participate the last couple of weeks, going through a busy patch IRL.
Voted in the final, thank you again for organising this!!
RE: FOGs Greatest Second Single - Kol - 15-10-2023
The votes are in and it's a tie with 4 votes each so winner is decided on better vote difference throughout the tournament
Fog's greatest second single is
Enya - Orinoco Flow
Thanks everyone for playing, I will be back soon with another
RE: FOGs Greatest Second Single - Irish Aris - 15-10-2023
Alright!!! Very happy with the winning song, didn't expect it at all.
Enya's first three albums were fantastic, some amazing music in them.
Thanks again for organising Kol!!!

Very cool that it came down to a tie - while I did vote Linkin Park there was very little in it for me, as both songs in the final I can attach to very specific times in my life and they have emotional significance for me, so very happy to see Enya take the crown.

I agree that it was very cool that it came down to a tie. I too voted for Linkin Park. However, I was not overly keen on either song. I did get an album a number of years ago by Enya - Shepherd Moons. I dip in and out of it from time to time. I particularly like the instrumental tracks on it.
