Jop Tournament Qualifiers 5

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Four more groups, sixteen more contenders - Eminem in there twice, and a Chic vs Chic contest in Group S.

In yesterday's first groups, convincing wins for G'n'R, Eurythmics, and TLC, plus Nirvana edging "Beat It" by one vote (take a bow insaneplatypus) and the Beastie Boys just about qualifying as least disliked.


[Poll #913043]


More later - the charts poll is late this week cos I haven't heard the records, it will usually be on a Wednesday though.

Q: not much contest, this is one of DC's best songs - their Writing's On The Wall period is essentially untouchable, even for Nelly and Em, especially for Blurgh

R: Proper dilemma between Lauryn and Kelis - resolved by remembering exactly how blown away I was by 'Milkshake' the first 30 times I heard it, they way it didn't wear off for about two years, and that I prefer other Lauryn songs to this one ('Ex Factor', 'Lost Ones')

S: would be really really hard if it wasn't for the fact that it's VOGUE. Come on, this pwns the world. STRIKE A POSE.

T: V hard but v apt choice between Obnoxious Dumb Fun 96 and Obnoxious Dumb Fun 05! "UH-HUH THIS MAH SHIT" v "YOOOOOO I TELL YA WHAT I WANT WHAT I RILLYRILLY WANT"; "b-a-n-a-n-a-s" v "zig-ah-zig-ah". 'Hollaback Girl', just, only just.

Run DMC are getting diddled here.

Otherwise this was the easiest one so far. Didn't need to think twice about any of them.
