The second part of the launch-day qualifiers, and these four polls are of particular interest to Prince fans (or Prince hataz) - 3 songs by him and another one written by him. The other group has the tournament debut of the Queen Of Pop.

Ooh, "Losing My Religion" gaining ground!

I think LTR has a pretty great tune and a pretty awful singer, so it's ripe for a good cover - there must be one out there. I'm thinking Marit Larsen style maybe?

As you know I have a very low tolerance of the male indie voice but I've never found M Stipe particularly objectionable in this regard, and especially not on LMR.

I think H Duff would be very good at capturing both the epicness and the vulnerability of it, as per 'Come Clean'.

I surprised myself by ticking LMR because I really dislike both Walk Like An Egyptian and We Are Family and there are so many Prince songs I prefer to She's Got The Look. Weak group overall I think.

Lex, this is one of the best ideas I've heard on a Poptimists thread.

I think Stipe has a beautiful voice, but sometimes he gnaws on it so much that it gets all chewy. Which sort of happens in "Losing My Religion," but I still love the track and would have tick it if I hadn't preferred a couple others.
