To be honest, I think the Grand Final was better than I expected.

I always found these No.2 hits to be pretty boring, but all in all a few good songs actually ended up in the finale.
great: 5
ok: 8
no matter: 4
crappy: 8

Looking forward to the No.3s then?

I'm really sorry... but a "No" at this very moment.

For me the game has just worn out a bit.

Maybe a KoS about a singer or a band would be something new and a little more interesting.

I really am. Depending on the era I might have to do some additional research but I will be all over that eighties trash (and gems)
