On the current scores above I think you have the 8 v 1 the wrong way round for Dire Straits and T.Rex in the 70's

:moggy:
The Smiths are the most marmite band of all time...you love or you hate. I'm with you. Awful voice, makes Bono look good

ROUND 14

70's

Temptations 'Papa Was A Rolling Stone' 64 6-6 Kate Bush' The Man With The Child In His Eyes' Bally

Just one drawn match in the last round

Sorry Bally 'Papa Was a Rolling Stone' was pulled out of the bag

If it's any consolation I feel neither song will win the 70's decade final as there is one clear favourite in this group of songs & a worthy one too !

NP as is the case with most of these Polls I find all the songs I like don't generally get as far as the semi finals and this is the case this time there's probably one song I like left and that's in the 80's the rest I'd turn the radio off if they were played
