There was a surge of upsets in the first round of the Natalie Divsion. In fact, only two battles ended with a victory by the higher-ranked song. Congratulations to #1 "Torn" and #3 "Angel of Mine" (a victory for Monica over her rival '90s teen R&B diva Aaliyah) for surviving! Among those swept away in the unexpected tide: a double K.O. for Mariah Carey, who lost both #2 "Without You," to #15 "Valerie", and #7 "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)," to #10 "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"; fellow legendary voice Whitney Houston, ousted by #12 "Bette Davis Eyes"; and another top seed, #4 "Superstar," which fell to #13 "Tainted Love" in one of the closest contests.

 

(1) "Torn" Natalie Imbruglia def. (16) "Run" Leona Lewis [22-5] 
(9) "Always On My Mind" Pet Shop Boys def. (8) "This Woman's Work" Maxwell [19-8]
(12) "Bette Davis Eyes" Kim Carnes def. (5) "I'm Every Woman" Whitney Houston [17-10]
(13) "Tainted Love" Soft Cell def. (4) "Superstar" Jamelia [15-12]
(3) "Angel of Mine" Monica def. (14) "Choosey Lover (Old School/New School)" Aaliyah [18-9]
(11) "Emotion" Destiny's Child def. (6) "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" Placebo [20-7]
(10) "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" Roberta Flack def. (7) "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" Mariah Carey [15-12]
(15) "Valerie" Mark Ronson ft. Amy Winehouse def. (2) "Without You" Mariah Carey [17-10]

 

Up next is the Sinéad Division, where the top seed is Sinéad O'Connor's beloved "Nothing Compares 2 U," the rare Prince cover that outdoes the Purple One himself. In each of the match-ups below, please pick the track that can stop those lonely tears from falling. Happy voting!

"Nothing Compares 2 U" Sinéad O'Connor vs. "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" Cyndi Lauper - this is the hardest choice this round but Sinead really outdid Prince here and that is a feat of itself
"Under the Bridge" All Saints vs. "The Man Who Sold the World" Nirvana - another hard choice
"I Feel For You" Chaka Khan vs. "With a Little Help From My Friends" Joe Cocker
"(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" Britney Spears vs. "Proud Mary" Ike and Tina Turner - i nominated for this song so i have to vote for it. also i love Brit but her covers are really not her best
"You've Got the Love" Florence + The Machine vs. "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" Diana Ross - another hard choice but i also nominated Miss Ross
"If You Could Read My Mind" Stars on 54 (Amber, Ultra Naté and Jocelyn Enriquez) vs. "Gloria" Laura Branigan - ugh it really pains me to not choose Laura (may she rest in peace... but IYCRMM is my jam
"The Best" Tina Turner vs. "Fire" The Pointer Sisters - Gloria is a better choice than either of these two
"Enter Sandman" Rina Sawayama vs. "Heaven" DJ Sammy and Yanou ft. Do - they snapped here
