Cherry vs Free - wow...no idea how this will play out. Cherry with the only round 1 shutout, Free with a good win over a tough opponent in the first match up...

DB Something vs Mountain - Breakfast got much mor support than I expected in round 1 against a good opponent...whereas Queen won over a marginal disco hit without the support Breakfast received...could be interesting.

Contours vs Lowe - oldies are hard to project...and Lowe going against a rap song in round 1 makes projection against a total different genre this time around tougher...

Imbruglia vs Lawrence - I think I have a handle on this one...

I really like 6 of the 8 songs in this pod, record density for me.

I'm 7 of 8...and the 8th I don't hate, just could take or leave it...but I'm with you.

CrimsonFox · 12-12-2019, 01:25 PM

so sick of play that funky music

just going to bump this up to the top because weekend vote totals are typically low...this will close Monday morning.

bumping...a couple hours left in this one...

Wild Cherry vs Free - I absolutely didn't expect this...I thought Alright Now had a shot to go REALLY deep in this tournament. I defiantly didn't expect a blow out loss...I obviously under-estimated the popularity/identification of Play that Funky Music as a great OHW.

Mountain vs Something - another I didn't expect to be a blow out...After round 1 I expected Tiffany's to win, but not by that spread...

The Contours vs Lowe - I love that Nick Lowe song...sorry to see it go...but I expected it, and this one played out about how I envisioned.

Imbruglia vs Lawrence - this one was pretty easy, if I'm surprised about anything, it would be that Lawrence got more votes than Free did....
