Thanks for the numbers Grant.

The final match of the opening round witnessed an easy victory registered for the brilliant track 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out' and it will now progress through to Round 2 as a seeded entrant.Sneaking through to the next Round alongside it (albeit unseeded) will be the runner-up on this occasion,the melancholic track 'Asleep'.Eliminated from the tournament with (unbelievably) not a vote between them are the unfortunate duo 'Half A Person' and 'Still Ill'.Both would probably have progressed in a lesser group.Such is the luck of the draw however.

Round 2 Results -

1.
 

Went with Meat is Murder in the last round.

But.

This round I'm going for How Soon Is Now?

Neither of the tracks a particular favourite of mine.I think better tracks have went out (Still ill,Paint a vulgar picture,Half a person etc),but that's the luck of the draw innit?

I will opt for Meat Is Murder

I like the piano parts and Moz's understated vocal.

How soon is now
