Tek Towers Best Song of The 80's Cup -Round 2/Game 8

The penultimate match of Round 2 was a low scoring match that was quite played out.The top 2 entrants both finished on the same number of votes,so the winner was the one who finished on top at the end of Full Time.And that was "Embarrassment" by MADNESS which will now see it progress through to Round 3.Joining it in the hat for Round 3 will be "Billie Jean" the huge hit single for the late MICHAEL JACKSON.Eliminated at this stage were "Don't Believe The Hype" by Public Enemy and "Hungry Like The Wolf" by Duran Duran.The latter receiving no votes this time out.
