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.
