Thursday at 00:005 days I actually forgot 'Already Gone' was such a huge hit in the US! (Deserved ofc)There are some stellar choices for Kelly though! Intrigued to see what gets chosen!

Thursday at 05:585 days Interesting. This is definitely far harder for physical era acts than those who’ve had singles in the streaming era - but also get that if there’s going to be themes then that’s going to happen at points no matter how hard anyone tries to avoid it
Thursday at 07:155 days 11 hours ago, ElectroBoy said:Think they've got a choice of 2 songs... i'm guessing You Are is incomingI would say three as Southgate You're The One wasn't their first World Cup dalliance, they did a cover of All Together Now that was a top 20 hit in Germany in 2006 (not top 40 in UK or US but was a single, so technically works by the rules given, not that I'd expect it to be chosen). 11 hours ago, ElectroBoy said:Maybe he could go with The Laughing Gnome?Classic!A re-release of this by Bowie's opportunistic former label was top ten in 1973!I definitely would expect one of my favourite Bowie songs to be incoming for this round. And also noticed an ABBA one that works really well. Intrigued for the reveal!
Thursday at 07:195 days @uhsting you should be ashamed of yourself putting that Kelly song last, mods, can we issue warning points for that please?

Thursday at 10:145 days Was out yesterday evening so didn’t catch the drama in full. Wow at that swerve from Lee! Both Bowie and Rosalía ranked very highly for me so I wouldn’t have wanted to be on that panel, but I would have had to save Bowie on this occasion with that big all time great. Well done Bray - I did think this round might be a step too far but you had a great competition and I particularly loved getting to know some of the “Lux” highlights better.Commiserations Lindsey. I do find Chappell’s material a little patchy but with some huge highlights. “Femininomenon” did stand out to me when I heard the album and I like the punchy spoken chorus. It was a tough round but I ranked it 7th so was very surprised to see it come last. You definitely did her proud in the competition.

Thursday at 13:495 days How i voted last round! Kelly ClarksonAtomic KittenDavid BowieLily AllenRosaliaScissor SistersChappell RoanFlorence & The MachineConan GrayDelta GoodremABBAShocked Kelly didn't walk the last round!! I much prefer the secret vote! The bottom three were no where near my bottom 🤣. In the next round ‘You Are’ should be allowed! I would have sent this Diane Warren beauty, a flop everywhere but huge on the music channels and when i saw Toni live she only sung a snippet but the whole crowd sang along!
