Plain White Ts 'Hey There Delilah'

 

Awful list of qualifiers for this round. Flux, Stronger and Hey There Delilah were probably the worst 3 songs in the list. I only gave points to 5 of the qualifiers and Calvin and Paramore were the only ones I ranked in my top 10.

 

LIAPBED actually did much better than I expected, as did KTCR :o Disappointed with the underperformance of SS and DCM though.

Actually I think that's a rather credible and varied final list we have there; for a change it's not over-saturated with throwaway female pop, most genres are represented and they were all genuinely popular or enduring hits that don't look particular out of place in the final top 50.

a good list of qualifiers there, YLAINE, Acceptable in the 80s, Young Folks, Misery Business and Hey There Delilah :wub: and Editors and Arcade Fire did much better than I thought they would :D

It is good to see it not being 75% female pop again. But the 'alternative' qualifiers are mostly terrible songs IMO.

I really like the list of qualifiers actually. Varied. Gutted Patrick came so close though, I thought it was flopped to start with but got convinced it would manage it's way through. Siobhan doing so baddly surprises me more tbh.

Poor Delta :( Still, not bad for a song not released in the UK. Fairly decent qualifiers although I'll always have a huge soft spot for Grace Kelly, seems like it's worn off on everyone else now...

Happy Ending, Flux, When You're Gone and Stronger :wub: Great for those 4 alone.

 

Shame Grace Kelly didn't quite make it, it's great, and I thought it might scrape in.
