Poll
Question:
1982 Final 4 Part 2
Option 1: This is the 1/5 matchup. Please pick one.
votes: 0
Option 2: 1 Hungry Like the Wolf - Duran Duran
votes: 7
Option 3: 5 Blister In the Sun - Violent Femmes
votes: 8
Option 4: This is the 6/7 matchup. Please pick one.
votes: 0
Option 5: 6 Our House - Madness
votes: 7
Option 6: 7 I Melt With You - Modern English
votes: 8
My favorite thing about this poll is that I know some of the songs are right in the wheelhouse of some of our members. Knowing that, I figured any song could win. I don't expect Duran Duran to make it past the Femmes. And I certainly didn't expect the Stray Cats and Flock of Birdshit to both go down to defeat. But that's what makes these things interesting to me, how you guys decide them :bd:
The 1/5
The 6/7
That 6-7 matchup sucks. It's a pair of songs that objectively sucked, but everyone 'loves' only because they were part of the hazy nostalgia era of MTV when they only had 200-odd videos to choose from and had to loop the few they had.
Oh, and I let my wife vote in this one for me, too

I would but I'm too tired. (https://www.grogheads.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aarcentral.com%2Fpics%2Fold.gif&hash=84795a126d2d2ae2464dec70f5c4a071b21b8caa)
Madness has some good songs ( https://youtu.be/nLE13tPs0K0 ) but Our House isn't one of them.
Now if I only could get Blister in the Sun out of my head ...

I wouldn't have put you a day over 60.
weren't all these songs in movies? the ones that make me cringe the least are Blister in the sun and melt with you, so..there you go.
