Brilliant surprise winner of the number 4. AH what was your prediciton that would win when you said overrated? Was it Aerosmith? I thought that would walk it. I hate it.

That's a really strong top 12...

 

I assume AH was expecting Angels to walk it as that's the society deemed 'classic' within the group.

 

I like this song but I didn't expect that it would be the most favourable here..The performance of Celine Dion in "The Power of Love" is priceless. I don't think that the current female singers could perform this song like her because they use only autotune..."Truly Madly Deeply" should be in the Top 10. "Kiss the Rain" is by far the biggest song in this list!

Indeed. I was expecting Angels to be top ten at least, a record I quite liked at first, but complete overkill has...well, completely killed it for me. Aerosmith being the second most overrated track here in my view.

I share your dislike of it, but no, the overrated track i was refering to was Angels. I'm actually shocked it didnt even make the top 20 here! :o

Wow. Angles was shockingly low. Great Top 10 apart from Waterfalls and Fantasy.
Not a massive fan of the winner but at least it wasn't Aerosmith or Robbie Williams.
