Easy week.

2  1  1  1

[doner24 | 1,275]

Easy week 1’s across the board. 

[galacticlint | 42]

I went 2, 1, 1, 2.

As far back as I can remember, I've never liked Come On Eileen.

 

[Jicsan | 623]

All 1's this round.

[RH | 5,542]

2,1,1,1 which for now appears to be the leaders.  It's odd to me how many times that's happened. I'm not trying to like the poppy-ist stuff.

Pretty sure A-ha is gonna take this whole thing eventually.

That vs Your Love is basically the championship bout IMO. I don’t think any song in the right side of the bracket has a chance except maybe I Ran because of the Vice City nostalgia?.

Lit is gonna be a tough opponent for Flock of Seagulls.   

[Hammerfestus | 4,294]

Straight 1s.  Starting to get good.  Been really into The Outfield lately.  I’d like to hope Your Love stomps Ah-ha when the time comes but I have very little faith in the musical taste of VGS.

This seems like it's getting easier as it goes on.

It should. Take On Me may be the second best '80s song behind Danger Zone.

Same here. I just can't stand the singer's voice.

And I don't really care that much about TheWeeknd or his song, so that's saying something.

[DoctorEncore | 3,696]

The chorus in Beds are Burning is just so damn good. It's also just a more interesting song than Warrior.

Your Love and Take On Me are both finals level stuff.

Come on Eileen sucks. The Weeknd is mostly just the beneficiary of a very good draw in the bracket.

I love The Weeknd and immediately regretted not giving him his own weekly thread as opposed to including him here.

Dude's a straight artist.

[Brickman | 4,387]

I haven’t voted in too many of these but had to give my vote to the Aussie bands.

I thought he did a good job with the Super Bowl halftime show.

Eh.  It was alright.  It was no Shakira and JLo.

Well, one of those two shows was lip synced...
