I'm surprised 40 beat Playboy Mansion

40 is damn good, stip.

I agree. I really like both of those songs. But 90s U2 has been crushing the competition

Playboy Mansion is a decent song, but I don’t think it’s special. 40 isn’t one of my absolute favorites either, but when listening back to back I definitely preferred it.

it was Red Hill Mining Town! glad I got that sorted.

Or maybe it was Running to Stand Still :scratcheshead:

I'm thinking doone should just listen to every U2 song ever made and we'll get this figured out.

That's what started this whole problem in the first place. Damn tournament! :lol:

there were a lot of songs from both Atomic Bomb and No Line that should have been there, but im happy to see All That..is going to be gone soon.

Pop is still there :heartbeat:

surprising number of blowouts this late in. Ultraviolet beating Running to Stand Still is nonsense, and One Tree Hill came dangerously close to losing to Pride. Get it together, RM!
