When I was 8, I spent a few months in the hospital- long story. But one of the five cassette tapes I had for my brand new walkman I listened to everyday was Michael Jackson’s Dangerous. Black and White tops Once In A Lifetime, 91-80.5. Surely the last hurrah, but MJ never really stops, does he?
Better Man over What’s The Matter Here, 72.51-53
Killing Me Softly squeaks past Empire State of Mind, 80-76
In the punk battle, Sex Pistols come out on top 69-64.5 over One Last Caress.
We Built This City over Around the Dial, 77-64. All good, my money was always on All Day And All Night anyways.
Last, Me Gustas Tu rounds out on top of Yeah Yeah Yeah, 72-62.
Out of the tournament: 10,000 Maniacs, The Misfits, and Jay-Z.
fugees song is pretty good, but a cover triumphing over jay-z’s empire….? i also think the misfits last caress deserved its own match up with like-songs about violence and babies.
