Votes in bold:

Al Stewart - Time Passages vs Lisa Donnelly - End Of Time

Lustra - Scotty Doesn't Know vs Voyager - Halfway Hotel

John Bon Jovi - Santa Fe vs Bon Jovi - We Rule the Night - I changed my mind about this one. It looks like I did not listen to it properly in the first round! Most of the time I don't like their stuff so I probably didn't give it a decent chance!

New Musik - The World of Water vs Marko Hietala - Stones

China Crisis - You Did Cut Me vs Tears for Fears - The Working Hour - This is a tough one as they are both my nominations. Based purely on the fact that there is a lot more going on with the instrumentation, I plumped for the latter. If I was going on the production, I might have gone for the other.

Kenny Chesney and Pink - Setting the World on Fire vs GOAT - Under No Nation - will this be the last one standing?

DIAL - Pink and Blue vs Triumph - Ordinary Man - In the first round, this one lost out to two others it was being matched against, even though I liked it!

dArtangan ft. Candice Night - We're Gonna Be Drinking vs The Blue Nile - Tinseltown in the Rain
