BuffaloPhil 932 Posted October 6, 2023 Yeah I think it's one of those songs where although not that many people really love it, no-one really dislikes it either. For me there were definitely six songs that I preferred in the final (maybe more depending on my mood!), but the highest of them only placed seventh overall so there was always something for me to downvote ahead of Dare. I think if everyone who voted ranked the finalists, Dare probably wouldn't be top of more than one or two at most, but probably wouldn't be outside the top ten of any - whereas most of the songs that topped those lists would be near the bottom of a significant number. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still a very odd consensus candidate though, IMHO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,156 Posted October 6, 2023 These are the ones I liked, with Spiller a long way out in front. I actually bought that single, very rare thing for me. The others in a very loose order. Spiller - Groovejet (If This Ain’t Love) Kylie Minogue - Can’t Get You Out Of My Head Lady Gaga - Bad Romance Lady Gaga - Poker Face Elvis vs JXL - A Little Less Conversation Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Like Dancing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was an absolute banger. I'm not good at creating hierarchies like this but looking at the master list for the Grand Final, I think my top 5 would have been (in no particular order): Gnarls Barkley - Crazy Rihanna - Umbrella Spiller - Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) La Roux - Bulletproof Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,592 Posted October 6, 2023 I had thought Kylie was a shoe in for this and Bad Romance was my second place. May have suffered from two Lady Gaga tracks being in the final 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 7, 2023 If I had to pick five, here are the six I would choose. Britney Spears - Oops!… I Did It Again Gnarls Barkley - Crazy Gorillaz- Dare Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl **La Roux - Bulletproof Lady Gaga - Bad Romance For me, Bulletproof was the best, but I could be persuaded to choose another one on any given day.
