Another tough bracket. That first matchup is brutal.

Picked all the current losers. No Rain is an all-time favorite.

Boo! Is this the end of Madness? It's going to have to pretty much go on an unprecedented run of consecutive votes and run the table on the remaining 11-12 votes to pull this off. C'mon FOFC, you can do it!

I love Our House, but I Melt With You is an all time great.

While I voted the other way, I agree this is a tough matchup. Two songs, same year, same sort of vibe, both being solid entries.

Similar vote breakdowns for all 4 of the match ups was interesting.

Divynals vs Weather Girls - widest margin of victory in the pod, going in I thought The Hustle might get beat worse...

Buggles vs Blind Melon - thought it might be closer. The classic OHW wins out.

Modern English vs Madness - battle of '82 OHW...I Melt With You is too much...

Falco vs McCoy - was expecting this to be more lopsided.

Both match ups in the round of 32 look to be very interesting...
