Bananarama do seem like the kind of pop group @Spiceboy would like, to be honest.

I mean, I got accused of being the mentor of Sam Fender so honestly at this point, @Spiceboy could be New Order at this point.

But probably not because he’s a raging homosexual and he will have some female vocal without a doubt!

Raging homosexuals tend to prefer men. 🤭

Would be funny if I offered myself my own hearing aid in the remix round with New Order's entry. 😂

You'd know all about those

Says a lot for the quality of the rest of the round!

Let's bring the SMASHES and bops back next week!

And there was me thinking my submission of Temptation was a bop for the ages

I've submitted my votes too.

Very little wowed me in this round and it felt like the mentors collectively decided to submit something just a bit mid.

I guess some of the major bops are being kept for later rounds.

FAVE

LEAST FAVE

I think this could be my favourite Swedish language Darin song so far? What a BOP! His first time on top () for me as well!

Bananarama is endearingly naff and similarly to @gooddelta, reminds me of a specific childhood memory of my mum.

Adele, Sophie and Sam S are all pleasant submissions from their back catalogues. Not my faves but still solid.

Marina and Sam F were nice enough but I can’t see myself returning to these all that much.

Similar to many of Depeche Mode’s songs, I feel there is potential hiding somewhere, but it just never really quite gets there for me.

The “I Love You” parts of the Fontaines song isn’t actually that bad. Shame the rest of the song is largely unbearable.

New Order just left no impression on me really whatsoever and Kate was sadly just unlistenable!

I only knew just under half of these, fair enough to keep the hits back for now, but I worry some of these acts aren't gonna be able to showcase their best (Bananarama mainly, fun as this one is, it really should've been Venus D:)

Will be a shame if Kate does go, this was a great choice of what she has left and has some really hard hitting lyrics

1. MARINA - Homewrecker

2. Kate Bush - Army Dreamers

3. Fontaines D.C. - I Love You

4. Sam Fender - Spit of You

5. Fun Boy Three & Bananarama - It Ain't What You Do It's the Way That You Do It

8. Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Mixed Up World

9. Adele - Send My Love (To Your New Lover)

10. New Order - Temptation

11. Sam Smith - I'm Not Here to Make Friends

good round for kate bush, fontaines and sam fender, but 'Homewrecker' another gem from Marina, she just has so many.

The Sam Smith hit squad is on

Iz just one of many RuPaul stans questioning that feature being included x

1. Bananarama (fave)

2. Darin

3. Sophie

4. Sam Smith

5. Adele

6. Sam Fender

7. Marina

8. Depeche Mode

9. New Order

10. Fontaines DC

11. Kate Bush - again pains me to put her last as I do love Kate but this song is never one I liked overtly much (least)

All in all a fairly decent round of songs from all, nothing overtly bad as such.

What a surprise @Spiceboy putting the Bananas top
