Stage 6/13: Suedehead2
Vangelis – To The Unknown Man



QUOTE
Here goes...

12 - Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (Used in BBC's F1 Coverage)
9 - Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up (Adrian 'Jackpot' Lewis' (Darts) Walk-on Song)
6 - Moby - Lift Me Up (Used in ITV's F1 Coverage)
4 - Hooverphonic - Visions (2000 European Football Championships)
2 - Genesis - Match of the Day
1 - Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane

1 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 31 pts
2 Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up 31 pts
3 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 28 pts
4 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 24 pts
5 Alter Bridge - Metalingus 24 pts
6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (jakewild) 18 pts
7 Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane 13 pts
8 Genesis - Match of the Day 13 pts
9 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
10 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole 8 pts
11 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 3 pts
12 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 2 pts

Next up is Suedehead who sent the very-well-performing (and also very long) ‘To the Unknown Man’ by Vangelis, which featured on the opening titles to the 1986 World Snooker Championships (not that I remember. I was minus 13 years old.) His 12 goes to The Chain, snooting it u to 6th but in doing so now creates a 6-way tie for the Green Jersey, which Mattias still holds by merit of points. Metalingus doesn’t receive any points here but keeps the polka-dot as not other song has scored with five voters. Reach Up and Lift Me Up consolidate their places near the top of the table.

Suedehead2 was my other guess for Vangelis if by some chance it wasn't Chez ha. Thanks for some points too, intrigued to see what happens from here on.

Stage 7/13: King Rollo
Genesis – Match of the Day




QUOTE
This was an eclectic bunch of sports related songs. Here is my vote:

12pts - Vangelis - To The Unknown Man - I enjoyed the prog style keyboards,I'm guessing this is Suedehead's entry
9 - Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up - I knew this one already. Middlesbrough FC used to play it whenever they scored a goal,maybe they still do. To the Arsenal fans,it was the "Sol's A Gooner" song.
6 - Hooverphonic - Visions - I gave my 18 pts to Hooverphonic in a BJSC when they represented Niceland so I'm guessing this is our host's entry.
4 - The Rhythm Method - Chin Up
2 - Moby - Lift Me Up
1 - Fleetwood Mac - The Chain


1 Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up 40 pts
2 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 37 pts
3 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 36 pts
4 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 30 pts
5 Alter Bridge - Metalingus 24 pts
6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (jakewild) 19 pts
7 Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane 13 pts
8 Genesis - Match of the Day (King Rollo) 13 pts
9 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
10 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole 8 pts
11 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 7 pts
12 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 2 pts

King Rollo gets the honour of being the middle vote, sending a nice football song complete with some odd and not-so-odd pictures, and finally we have a clear leader in the Green Jersey! Vangelis gets the honour of green without being leader, we have a new leader overall in the face of Perfecto Allstarz, who also relieve Metalingus of the polka-dot jersey by getting their fifth vote. He gets his guess for Suedehead right but unfortunately his guess for me wrong (if only I was doing that well!)

Stage 8/13: Chrizly
Alter Bridge - Metalingus



QUOTE
Hello, here is Vince McMahon calling for the WWE votes. First of - nice selection of songs, could use some of them for my next WrestleMania *VinceMcMahon laugh*

Alright, here we go:

+1 Point for "Zinedine Zidane". He is only a B+ player but has a nice headbutt *hoho*
+2 Points for "To Brazil". Did you know? Pat Patterson was the first Intercontinental Champion and he won that title in Brazil. *hoho*
+4 Points for "Visions" - that song is almost as long as my 3 hour Monday Night RAW show ... but of course not that exciting *hoho*
+6 Points for "Allez Ole Ola" by Jessy Matador. Reminds me of my former wrestler "El Matador" - great gimmick *hoho*
+9 Points for "Lift Me Up" - perfect song for a highflyer like Rey Mysterio.

speaking of mystery ... it's time to reveal my Champion. And the winner is ... *drumroll*

BRRRRRRROCK ... err sorry ... force of habit *hoho*

+12 Points for "To The Unknown Man" - but who is the unknown man? A cliffhanger. Love it.

And for all the other songs I have two words:

Yoooooooou're FIIIIIIIIIRED!!!


1 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 48 pts
2 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 41 pts
3 Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up 40 pts
4 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 39 pts
5 Alter Bridge - Metalingus (Chrizly) 24 pts
6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (jakewild) 19 pts
7 Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane 14 pts
8 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole 14 pts
9 Genesis - Match of the Day (King Rollo) 13 pts
10 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
11 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 7 pts
12 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 4 pts

Our 8th votee is Chrizly, a relative newbie to the site (although I’ve known him for a good four years now). He is the only competitor to send a WWE song despite our fairly dedicated WWE community on here, and probably the rock-iest song to be entered as well. He also actually does a decent commentary (this is what I was looking for guys!!1) and gives Suedey his third 12, increasing his lead in the green s well as giving him the yellow. Another vote for Hooverphonic (and nothing for Reach Up) means that Mattias now holds the polka-dot jersey. Vengaboys double their points, and I now get overtaken by Mr. Matador.

Stage 9/13: Bré
Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray – Zinedine Zidane



QUOTE
hi.gif here's the link I meant to send in for my song lmao (I don't know why I copied a random version by a channel literally called 'ShittyMusicVideos', that's a little unfortunate when I actually think the video is half the fun of the song but hey, I should have checked that earlier I guess...!)



It's a novelty song so it'll probably be coming last anyway but if y'all could spare a few minutes to experience it properly that'd be cool xx

Anyway, votes:

12 Hooverphonic - Visions
9 Alter Bridge - Metalingus
6 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man

4 Moby - Lift Me Up
2 Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up (Papa's Got A Brand New Pig Bag)
1 Vengaboys - To Brazil!

Not a bad bunch of songs really xx

1 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 54 pts
2 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 53 pts
3 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 43 pts
4 Perfecto Allstarz - Reach Up 42 pts
5 Alter Bridge - Metalingus (Chrizly) 33 pts
6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (jakewild) 19 pts
7 Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane (Bré) 14 pts
8 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole 14 pts
9 Genesis - Match of the Day (King Rollo) 13 pts
10 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
11 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 7 pts
12 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 5 pts

Next up it’s Bré, who sent me a SCATHING PM accusing me of sabotaging his entry, when in fact it was he himself who sent the song with the wrong link. I actually prefer the fan-made video though oops. And I’ve given him 12 of his 14 points so far so he can’t really complain (still think my +4 in BJSC was more momentous though). Anyway, Bré’s Top 5 votes go to the current Top 5, increasing their gap to everything else but also re-shuffling the order within them as Lift Me Up overtakes Reach Up. Bré also throws a sympathy point to Vengaboys who’s total increases to 5. All the jerseys stay the same.

Oh my, thank you Bré for the 12! I was slightly amused by your entry, including that 'ShittyMusicVideo' haha.

'Visions' is a bit of a trip but was not expecting it to be doing this well.

Chez next – he sent France’s Eurovision smash Allez Ola Ole which was also their official song for the 2010 World Cup, and my favourite song from Eurovision 2010 sent by France which was also a World Cup song. He does even less with his votes than Bré, voing for the current Top 3 in order and changing absolutely nothing. Suedehead edges out even further in the green jersey at least with a fourth +12, and Vengaboys get another point bringing them within touching distance of 11th (provided the person that sent them actually votes).

That video for the Zidane song was much better than the other one. I still wouldn't have voted for it though.

1 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 66 pts
2 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 66 pts
3 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 55 pts
4 Perfecto Allstars - Reach Up (dobbo) 44 pts
5 Alter Bridge - Metalingus (Chrizly) 42 pts

10 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
11 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 8 pts
12 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 8 pts

Dobbo up next - if you were paying close attention to the threads you could probably work out that this was his entry as we allowed this despite it being a Top 10 - I’ve looked at the walk-on videos for Mr. Lewis and the difference between the song and the entrance is quite amusing. Despite being high up, Dobbo does a good job of not shooting himself in the foot, however an all-important 4 points to Hooverphonice puts Mattias in joint first with Suedey (two long songs at the top - who would have thought?) Mack now also takes reign of the polka-dot jersey will a full 8 votes. Vengaboys have also caught up with Chin up, yay!

Stage 12/13: coi

A few great songs in here convinced me to vote!

+12 Moby - Lift Me Up
+9 Alter Bridge - Metalingus
+6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain
+4 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole
+2 Vengaboys - To Brazil
+1 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up


1 Moby - Lift Me Up (Mack) 67 pts
2 Vangelis - To The Unknown Man (Suedehead2) 66 pts
3 Hooverphonic - Visions (Mattias) 66 pts
4 Alter Bridge - Metalingus (Chrizly) 51 pts
5 Perfecto Allstars - Reach Up (dobbo) 44 pts
6 Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (jakewild) 41 pts
7 Jessy Matador - Allez Ola Ole (Chez Wombat) 18 pts
8 Vaudeville Smash ft. Les Murray - Zinedine Zidane (Bré) 14 pts
9 Genesis - Match of the Day (King Rollo) 13 pts
10 Vengaboys - To Brazil! 10 pts
11 Tokio Myers ft. Jazmin Sawyers - Jerusalem (PeteFromLeeds) 9 pts
12 The Rhythm Method - Chin Up (WhoOdyssey) 9 pts

Our only non-participant to vote - coi - is next, and we have a twist as Mack leapfrogs the two main contenders to touch the top! Vengaboys also overtake both me and Whoddy, meaning that the white jersey is very much a fight at the bottom of the table.

So, with one point separating the Top 3 and one point separating the Bottom 3, with the final votee it’s all to play for…
