Los Del Rios vs Wreckx - Macarena lucky to still be in the tournament, but no idea how it will fair against a song that had a pretty easy first round match up.

Exiters vs Collins - man the top half of this bracket is in my opinion significantly weaker than the bottom half...

Sinead vs Lewis - Sinead was extremely strong in the first round against a really good first round opponent.

Brickell vs Isaak - VERY interesting...

Nope. But it's better than the alternative here

The chorus of the Wreckx song is better than the Macarena, the problem is a song is more than just a chorus.

I really like both Macarena and Rumpshaker, so that was a tough one for me. In the end, the xiennial party anthem wins out

Very. Two of my favorite one hit wonders, especially with my Concrete Blonde already out.

sooo hate the macarena....why does anyone like that song

tell him is one of the best songs of its genre
the singer even sounds hot
tired of the sinead song. heard it too much but she sang the hell out of this prince song
What I Am is so interesting of a song in every way. Trivia: she's Paul Simon's wife

thoughts:

Los Del Rio vs Wreckx - Macarena won much bigger than I expected

Exiters vs Collins - not sure how Collins compares to Republica from round 1 vs Macarena...guess we are going to find out soon.

O'Connor vs Lewis - Nothing Compares 2 U continues to look strong...

Edie vs Isaak - liked this match up, and it's a good win for Wicked Game, but I think this run is coming to a screeching halt...

I don't like the Macarena song too much, but it's one of the greatest OHW ever. Which is why I voted for it.
