Two of them drew on that, and then they drew on 20s so I finally moved over to vote count and the one that got through had 16 votes to Midnight City's 14. Whew. 26 M83 - Midnight City 173 (8 top 10s, 6 top 5s, 1 top score, 14 votes) 27 Florence & The Machine - Shake It Out 173 (8 top 10s, 3 top 5s) 28 Katy Perry (feat. Kanye West) - E.T. 172 29 Lily Allen - Smile 171 30 Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone 169 31 Ellie Goulding - Guns And Horses 168 32 La Roux - In For The Kill 166 33 Alicia Keys - Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart 150 34 Lana Del Rey vs Cedric Gervais - Summertime Sadness 147 35 Ariana Grande (feat.

Mikky Ekko) - Stay 143 39 Sam Sparro - Black And Gold 143 40 Florence & The Machine - Spectrum 135 41 Hurts - Wonderful Life 129 42 Charli XCX - Boom Clap 129 43 Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars 125 44 Ellie Goulding - The Writer 125 45 Calvin Harris - How Deep Is Your Love 125 46 Amy Winehouse - Rehab 122 47 Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers 121 48 Cascada - Everytime We Touch 105 49 Justin Timberlake - What Goes Around… Comes Around 90 50 Nelly Furtado - All Good Things (Come To An End) 84 Apart from that, it is a shocking and sad elimination for Midnight City, which I believe makes it the first final that it's missed, same for Summertime Sadness that I can see. Nelly Furtado and Cascada finish at the bottom on their last year here, I'll cover that more in the full results.
August 29, 20168 yr Oh dear at my +20 (Cascada) flopping badly, sure that had loads of fans on here. Yeah those qualifiers... at least it makes narrowing the final down a lot easier!
August 29, 20168 yr Ugh my votes would've put In For The Kill through more than likely :( darn my tardiness!
