At the beginning of this game I would have bet that this song would win. I think it's cool that it's not like that. Top 10 is perfectly fine.

I like the song, but it winning the whole enchilada would've been too cliche.

I predicted the final 3 would be Bohemian Rhapsody, Space Oddity and Withering Heights. One gone, two more commendable but overplayed songs to go (not that I think Kate Bush won’t win).
