But if I recall correctly, Queen has won a lot of rounds already and they're not a fave of mine, so I'm mixing it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Ultravox song is Ok to good but they did several better and it doesn't shine in this company. Clearly both of these are minority opinions however. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surprised Electric Dreams is now struggling, from that opening riff onwards it's an 80s classic. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, the wrong Madonna song is still there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
