The Depeche Mode one was a bit of a filler for me, really short and didn't go anywhere. But I don't like The Runner either

However, would love to see Bananarama go further!

The final group...

safe...

and through to Live Shows...

is...

which means, sadly, Depeche Mode have been eliminated from the competition.

BUT, it's not over yet. Because it's almost time for The Gamu Nhengu Gold Card!

Yas! My top 3 got in

Shame to see Depeche Mode go, as they had a lot left to give. But that song for me was quite a bit behind the rest.

Thank GOD.

Whilst I quite liked that DM song, we couldn’t be having three pale male and (mostly) stale acts going through!

03. Decent.

05. Not for me.

01. Depeche Mode

02. Fontaines DC

03. Bananarama

04. Texas

05. New Order

(Iirc! )

I think I must be the only one not liking anything from Fontaines and I just can’t get on that hype train with them!!!

Out of the two left, Depeche Mode to continue their journey please!!!

Oh I didn’t expect that!

Oh gosh, curse of the too short song that had more to give maybe!

I dare say they will be back with at least two incredible songs left to play, sorry Vengas.

Delighted for Bananarama, they have been a revelation! Their vocals on The Runner aren't it though.

And I ooop!!!

I did worry for them but glad they lasted so long, their sender should be proud.

Oh that's a shame as I ranked Depeche Mode's song 2nd!

Hopefully a certain song can silence the rest of their competition for Gamu.

Don’t forget KING

Up next...

it's time for the SOLO MALES...

Not happy to see Depeche go but I kinda thought the song would struggle this round.

1. Texas

2. Fontaines DC

3. New Order

4. Depeche Mode

5. Bananarama

That was mine, I really like the Texas track, it made me feel happy! Fontaines and New Order also decent.

Depeche ok but repetitive and too short and I did wonder about its chances. With Bananarama, The Runner just isn't for me in any form, but I adore them and made up for their mentor. I'm sure I'll be ranking them top again before long.

I did rank Depeche Mode 5th (sorry)

Deffo think the bananas deserved it over DM
