Tournament favourite Kate Bush gets dumps out, almost everyone nominated her.

That is a shocker. I wonder did everyone who nominated her actually vote on this occasion.

At least half of those I could easily have voted the other way. Probably would too if I had a second vote 🤣

[Irish Aris]

Avril Lavigne over Kate Bush. . . really???

Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy
Wilson Phillips - Hold On
Evanescence - Bring Me To Life
Natalie Imbruglia - Torn
Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
Tracy Chapman - Fast Car (another very tough one, draw is so cruel. . .)
The Corrs - Runaway
Killers - Mr Brightside
HAIM - Forever
Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe
Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Relax (dear god. . . I hate to vote against Rick Astley but as debuts go Relax is epic!!)
Scissor Sisters - Laura (another very difficult. . . going with Scissor Sisters purely because I love other Yazoo songs more and Only You isn't characteristic of their sound)
Sade - Your Love is King
The Cranberries - Dreams
Avril Lavigne - Complicated (really meh draw. . .)
Hanson - Mmmbop

[Irish Aris]

Tournament favourite Kate Bush gets dumps out, almost everyone nominated her.

That is a shocker. I wonder did everyone who nominated her actually vote on this occasion.

I wasn't able to vote at all last week due to personal commitments (and I will miss a couple this week too).
I am not surprised that she got knocked out if I'm honest. These competitions are purely popularity contests so something unique and original like Kate Bush wouldn't necessarily be a huge favourite. Getting knocked out by Avril Lavigne kind of proves my point.
I just hope that we eventually crown a decent winner. . .

(Hope Avril wins the whole thing after all the whinging )

I actually voted for her in this round (for the first time!), even though she was the Giant Killer!  

Her song is actually okay and looks at the moment like it might get through this round. Looking at some of the other songs in the last 32, her song may well make the last 8, depending on who she is drawn against in the last 16 (if she gets through this), but I think that will be it. I am taking into account the quality of a number of the remaining songs in the last 32, and the apparent popularity of some of the others!

I used to love that Tracy Chapman song but I played it to death when it was out & I end up getting sick of it. 
I turn it off as quick as I can when I hear it now. That's why I'm.not voting for it within the game
