  1. Amazing result wub Great to see my favourite artist get a little love with some great scores along the way!

    Great work @Scene , sorry for ever doubting you! Your choices have been fun and varied showing great classics of Avril. For an album track to actually win it's own individual vote I actually think is a little bit of a testament to your choices and gathering support along the way. Take me away is a fantastic track that is quite possibly my favourite non single from her.

    Thank you @Calum for allowing me to have a small part in this really fun event and for hosting it, first big event in most of my years here on BJ that i've been a part of!

  2. The Avril song is absolute pure pop perfection to me.

    A solid gem within an absolutely important album of it’s time, especially for the future direction of female artists. Without Avril, there would be no Kelly (at least not in the direction she ended up going with Breakaway), Billie, Olivia etc.

    Run is fantastic, really enjoy it and in most votes I would back it but I’m with you is an absolute standout!

  3. Oh no 😭

    The Avril songs have been perfection and played perfectly until this point, I adore Take Me Away but a fall at the final hurdle with selections here when Keep Holding On, What The Hell, Hot and Girlfriend are out there seems to have handed a win to Xtinct for her having the most commercial / recognised song here. I really thought she might take this honestly.

    Voted all the same ❤️

    Speak for yourself, 'All Good Things (Come To An End)' is my favourite song from her x

    Like I said, great song and whilst some may see it as their personal favourite of hers, it is not her career defining song to the point of if you surveyed x many people to name a song by her, it is likely it would not be the most named.

    Whereas Run and I'm With You, you could make the argument that they could very well be, that's all happy

  5. Listen, I like Nelly Furtado as much as the next homosexual kink but let's not act like this song is on the same level as the other 2 here.

    As pleasant as it is, the other 2 are career defining tracks for them, songs that absolutely showcased the best of those artists and are standout songs associated with those artists, All Good Things... is simply an enjoyable track within Nelly's discography that doesn't stand in the same way.

    That being said, this is a very strong final 3 admittedly wub

  6. The draw for Novax just keeps getting more open doesn't it really 🤢 Sinner wasn't 100% but absolutely take nothing away from Dimitrov because he played much better, so awful for him to retire from 5 grand slams in a row.

    Hoping for Alcaraz will win it all. wub

  7. This tournament has been absolutely wild. I have never seen a massacre of seeds in this way before at any event.

    Most likely will end up with 1 vs 2 in the mens. The womens, who knows at this point. Happy for Kartal though, great performance! cheer

  11. I came to this thread to say Orson - No Tomorrow, but saw this was suggested almost instantly.

    So I will post one that I don't think has been mentioned and probably wouldn't, but I genuinely stand by it...

    Lola Young - Messy. ph34r

  12. Kind of echoing a few people above RE: Complicated. At the time, I found it okay, then it grew and grew with each listen of an absolutely classic album of the time and the genre. However, it's now as an adult that I really appreciate it, it's held up so well and still sounds like a song that could easily be released now. Even though I love and appreciate it now, I will agree with those above, definitely not my fave from that debut era - I'm with you, Anything but ordinary, Things i'll never say, Mobile and Losing Grip all being just perfection.
