You didn't give 13 points to anything so I've moved everything below An Honest Mistake up one place.

 

Ah OK, that's fine. I think I just missed out a +13 altogether rather than accidentally deleting a song.

Actually sorry just realised that I deleted Garbage - Why Do You Love Me. That should be my +13. I'll add it in now if that's OK?

At 6pm on the last day of first round voting, no one had voted for this song at all but four late votes were enough to take it past the cut-off point. It was the first single release by the trio that Duran Duran had been reduced to following the departure of Roger and Andy Taylor. Nile Rodgers co-produced the song as well as playing some guitars.

52. Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman 90pts

 

Writer - Jimmy Webb

Top points - King Rollo 23, AH Gold 22, Jaz13music 20

 

The two voters who both gave this 30 points in the first round didn't vote in this semi-final so this doesn't do as well as it could have done. It was the first UK hit single for Glen Campbell who went on to have three number 4 hits and one number 3. Bob Dylan and Stuart Maconie have both singled it out as being the greatest song ever written.

I did expect Bloc Party to come last but disappointed at Glen Campbell being so low, such a beautiful song
