George Michael – Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me

Jess Glynne – Not Letting Go

Kylie Minogue – Tears on My Pillow

McFly – I'll Be OK

Michael Jackson – Black or White

2 very average Kylie songs through who would have thought lol.

 

This round is the weakest so far !!

 

Went for George !!

sad that Jess Glynne was so close to qualifying.

anyway voting for someone else for the first time this round, I'll go for Cold Water. As for Tsunami I prefer the non-Tinie version.

MJ for me but could be any of 4 songs here tbh but it is a average list on the whole in comparison to the first three!

 

My full rank would be

 

Black Or White

Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

Candle In The Wind 97

Eternity

Beautiful Day

7 Rings

I'll Be OK

Cold Water

Tears On My Pillow

Tsunami (Jump)

Not Letting Go

Lay Me Down

Weak AF

 

Going for Elton :lol:

Eternity by far

Black or White is easily my favourite of that lot ^_^

 

Cold Water!

 

Missed round 3 where I thought Bieber might finally break his streak but Love Yourself would have got my vote from that list too, he's on 4/4 for me *.*

queen jess once again

Beautiful Day by U2 for me.

I went for 'Beautiful Day', think '7 Rings' would be next. Very weak round though.

Cold Water

This round is definitely the weakest so far although that's not to say there's not some great songs in that list... I went for 'Black Or White', what a great start that was to MJ's 'Dangerous' era and the video was pretty iconic too.

Finally my first vote for Ari as '7 rings' is definitely my favourite from that list!

 

Full ranking:

 

01. Ariana Grande – 7 Rings

02. Michael Jackson – Black or White

03. U2 – Beautiful Day

04. Justin Bieber – Cold Water

05. Tinie Tempah – Tsunami (Jump)

06. George Michael – Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me

07. McFly – I'll Be OK

08. Jess Glynne – Not Letting Go

09. Robbie Williams – Eternity

10. Elton John – Candle in the Wind '97

11. Kylie Minogue – Tears on My Pillow

12. Sam Smith – Lay Me Down

Wow at 'Rock DJ' actually managing to win the last poll :cheeseblock:

 

And I'm going for 'Black Or White' here which is currently winning this poll too - will be 4 for 4 on voting for the winner so far if that continues *. (my 2nd choice here would probably be 'Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me').

Kylie!

Looks like there'll be 5 or 6 Kylie songs in the final

7 rings

McFly – I'll Be OK

U2 – Beautiful Day

Justin Bieber – Cold Water

Ariana Grande – 7 Rings

George Michael – Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me

Michael Jackson – Black or White

Tinie Tempah – Tsunami (Jump)

Robbie Williams – Eternity

Elton John – Candle in the Wind '97

Jess Glynne – Not Letting Go

Kylie Minogue – Tears on My Pillow

Sam Smith – Lay Me Down

 

Not the strongest round. But I have a big soft spot for that McFly song :wub:

 

Kylie is going to get 3 of her most basic and uninteresting songs through, isn't she? :(
