not really, since I'd have more than I need...
and no need for the sarcastic tone. |
Just take two Madonna songs out and put Lady In Red through

Rules:
- This'll largely follow the format of the 90s and 00s editions I've previously ran, but in case you're unfamiliar with the rules, here's the basics. - For the first 5 rounds I have split the 160 songs into 5 "rounds" of 32 songs. - In each round the 32 songs are split again into 8 "groups" of 4. - Your task is to take each group as follows and rank the four songs in order of preference. - For example, if Group A contained "Lovecats", "I Want Candy", "Touch My Nipples" and "Ooh is that a Benz?" and you loved "Touch My Nipples", liked "Lovecats", didn't mind "I Want Candy" and hated "Ooh is that a Benz?" you'd put: 1) Touch My Nipples 2) Lovecats 3) I Want Candy 4) Ooh is that a Benz? - Each song is provided as a URL for these first 5 rounds so as to help you familiarise yourself. I ask that you please listen to songs you don't yet know (since you can't judge fairly until you do, and who knows, you might find a new favourite). - The three songs with the most points per group will qualify for rounds 6-onwards. ROUND ONE: Group A: Duran Duran - Rio Billy Joel - She's Always a Woman Queen & David Bowie - Under Pressure Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want to Have Fun Group B: The Smiths - How Soon is Now? Aerosmith/Run D.M.C. - Walk this Way Madonna - Holiday Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World Group C: Gary Numan - Cars The Cure - Close to Me Bruce Springsteen - Born in the U.S.A.
