In most cases even though the No.1 singles have not been the best songs by that artist they are still usually above the common fare. Three Lions is the only song on The Lightning Seeds GH album that I would skip. However I am a Tori Amos fan but will not be upvoting Professional Widow

Hence the tempted to but haven't

I am tempted to upvote Three Lions because this would be the only opportunity to vote for the Lightning Seeds but I suspect in the scheme of things they would be wasted votes

Looking at the graphs and stats of when the third death occurs in each year. If the death is early it is in a very narrow window (Day 35-38) A majority of third deaths have happened between Days 63-93) Today we are on Day 73 Then there is a big gap to the late third hits which occur after Day 134 I am only using 14 key years for this There has not been a third hit later than Day 166 which is sometime in June

He was a fixture in our house. We watched Jim'll Fix It and listened to his Old Record Club on Sunday lunchtimes. He was one of the most recognizable celebrities of the day. my wife says she always found him creepy but her mum had some of this books. He was a master of obfuscation with all his charity work and hospital visits being so visible. However there were those who was suspicious. The producer who worked on Children in Need refused to have Saville any where near the event

There are at least 8 votes left but I an predicting quite a battle between the last five to avoid being the last eliminated so it may last over the weekend

I think George Michael was a great singer but after his Wham days he just didn't have many great songs.

Will that be before or after Teletubbies say Eh-oh and I Believe I Can Fly?

With six places in the next round I don't think it will be too bad for them. The multiple entries for people like The Spice Girls, Peter Andre and solo members of Take That are more likely to present a problem I recognise more titles in 96/97 but doesn't I like them more Just trying to pick my six to champion

In any other grouping it would probably be top 10 but miss out on the qualification spots Here it is just better than most of the competition

I did a listen of the tracks I did not know and it doesn't change the five that I will be voting for first but it does inform me which ones I will be down voting next there is a lot of Meh.... Nothing awful but things so generic you would be hard pressed to put a title to them if you heard them on the radio

Didn't realise that Stiltskin was Ray Wilson's band before the ill thought out Genesis collaboration
