If anyone wants to do some trolling then a lot of -6 points to Alice Cooper will get him in the middle.

Just let the game play out as it's supposed to.  It can only get better after this round.

My favourite here was actually the Rod Stewart song, but as people were largely indifferent I didn't waste points on it.

As @msc I much prefer 10cc to Wizzard for instance or even SuziQ here, but I'm not welded to any of these and I can tell which way the wind is blowing too. It's time to get this round done.

Agreed, and Biblio is right: the top 5 go through this time.

1970/71: 27 songs = the last 4 songs will enter the Grand Finale

1972/73: 34 songs = the last 5 songs will enter the Grand Finale

1974/75: 41 songs = the last 6 songs will enter the Grand Finale
