At last all my downvotes for big Barry have worked.

 

Barry White your song was sh1te

[TQR 12,166]

Barry or Ken instead of BCRs and that would’ve been a perfect six IMO.

 

Suzi Quatro is the only artist with more than one Grand Final entry so far.

 

So, 76-77 time. Do those who’ve already voted today get another vote for the new round or nah?

Bastards.

Suzi was lucky, no one really cared for her in this round

 

Next round will start in a few minutes; everyone can vote again today!

Have fun - now it's getting really hard!!!

RE my earlier (November 19th) prediction of 6 of the current top 7 (above) making it through, turns out I was being too pessimistic, with only 4 of them making the cut (Steve Harley, Tammy Wynette, Barry White Missing out). However, the two who made it through who weren't in that 7, (Suzi Quatro & BCR) aren't necessarily improvements on those 3 that didn't.
