Welcome to the Week 14 play-off! ohmy.gif unsure.gif drama.gif

Results of Week 14

The nominal winner of the final multi-select poll before we bid farewell to the 20th Century Retro for this series is The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy, Hey Girl with 14 votes, 3 clear of Bryan Adams and Melanie C in second place.

The worst poll went by a landslide to Celine Dion And R. Kelly - I’m Your Angel also with 14 votes, but 10 more than anything else there.

But wait, why is there a play-off? Well, there's one song we may have forgotten to include in last Sunday's session, due to it being a pesky slow-climber in an era where at least 95% of songs peaked in week 1, and such is its calibre, it wouldn't feel right not to put it up against the nominal best of the week. So it's a simple 50/50 choice for your favourite between these two great songs: The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy, Hey Girl and... TLC - No Scrubs

I don't mind 'No Scrubs' but 'Hey Boy, Hey Girl' gets my vote here.

Hey Boy Hey Girl is still the better one, No Scrubs is a classic though that would've definitely got a vote as well, hope to see it played this week x
