Off the back of this admission, your vote there is not valid. I don't agree with how this has gone either, but that doesn't mean I'm just engaging in number fuckery. It's in the rules - be true to what you actually think of the songs. Next voter please use this scoreboard:

, butdon’t for fuck sake just knock them down because they’re scoring low. This is meant to gauge collective opinion, it’s not a massacre and we’re not pushed for time.

 

 

 

A bit like this rule then? 

[Toast 14,850]

It's contentious because there were so many good songs in this round.

I am personally happy with the four that remain, although there are a couple I would have preferred to ADAAOTN.

Unlike @theoldlady, I will vote for the same song I have been all along, until I cannot do so.

I love all three! 

TBH I thought Waterloo Sunset would be a runaway winner from the start.

Eloise and God Only Knows are okay-ish. I don’t dislike The Kinks on the whole but as for their two songs that made the final I’d rather listen to my own death rattle.

God Only Knows is the best song out of the finalists IMO so very pleased with it making the podium. But the difference in quality is pretty molecular and I'm happy with whatever wins (which face it, is going to be Waterloo Sunset)
