Ooh last round was a close one! The Prodigy have narrowly survived yet another round so we say goodbye to the Sugababes and Christina Aguilera. Xtina was the clear loser in Group A, receiving over half the vote. The song itself was released in the iconic diva week of November 2008, where it lost the 5-way chart battle peaking at #14. The Sugababes fared a bit better with their first original release as version 3.0 a couple of years earlier, peaking at #8 before swiftly falling down the chart. Personally, I much prefer Easy to KGB but at the same time I feel like this is where the SBs started to go wrong...

09. Sugababes - Easy 12/33 (36.36%)

Going for Britney this round. Was going to go for Madge but Celebration is the better song to my ears.

Surprised '3' is still here. It's fine but not that good to survive any longer imo.

Poor Xtinct that girl can never catch a break

I'm going with Britney. I don't dislike '3' as much as I did at the time but it's still pretty shoddy.

Keeps Gettin' Better was my favourite song in this selection.

3 is the wise #savetheprodigy vote this time - that would have been my 2nd choice after the very bland Steps cover anyway.

Posted by: Roba. 3rd May 2024, 10:26 AM

Yeah that cover of 'Chain Reaction' is not great. Give me Diana's version x could be my next option too.

Each to their own. I thought the Chain Reaction cover was genius. Claire's vocals soar

3 remains the worst one for me so voting for that again.

Posted by: Dobbo 3rd May 2024, 10:46 AM

3 is a tune and my second fave here so no way I was going tactical this time.

Another neck-and-neck vote!

Bumping for more votes

The three best remaining all on 0 atm. Shame for Prodigy but I do prefer others by them tbh.
