You’re wasting your time.  What you need to decide is if the Eurythmics song is clearly better than Relax, because that’s where this is headed.  You keep that shit up and FGTH won’t be represented at all, which is fine by me.  TT will be eliminated before your head hits the pillow tonight.

But as 5 go through I think actually both Eurythmics and Relax could have made it?

Indeed so, by quite a distance.

Agree that Two Tribes shits on Relax, and now Feargal Sharkey appears to be pretty much unsaveable (fuck you all) it has my points coming its way.

I would say Two Tribes is the better song, but Relax is more culturally important.

I'd have thought Relax would be more popular here, if only for the video.

What do you mean, cunto? In the rules it states that the "a" in Feargal is worth 10 points.

[ladyfiona 2,577]

Right, this is the score Sir Creep should have given...I think. Go with this.
