The #3 sessions will commence next Sunday, with a new thread coming soon!
January 21, 20241 yr meh results Children is a great dance track but it's far from being the best #2 ever :/
January 21, 20241 yr I put A-ha in 3rd place and Robert Miles 4th so that's not the worst outcome. Thanks Jim for adding up the scores.
January 21, 20241 yr Thanks Jim! Quite surprised at Children beating TOM but I guess the song that won the week of death with Common People and Born Slippy was always going to do very well.
January 21, 20241 yr Really happy for the top 2 as they inspired some songs/scores I loved. Take On Me -> Blinding Lights Children -> here's a video instead: RcGxs7sXtEE
January 21, 20241 yr 12 Confide in me 10 Murder on the dance floor 8 Fairytale in New York 7 Take on me 6 God only knows 5 Children 4 Let it be 3 Take me to church 2 Starboy 1 feel good inc O Alice Deejay Better off alone
January 21, 20241 yr Awesome winner! Having only voted in the final, I didn't know what the format of the heats was... but yes, if Children had to beat the 1995-1996 #2s to qualify then it deserves to win for that alone!
January 21, 20241 yr Yass the correct winner *.* and great 2nd place too. I am surprised to see 'Let It Be' so high though, would have expected it to lose out to 'God Only Knows' out of the older songs on here. Also disappointing to see 'Starboy' in dead last but did well to get to the final I guess!
