Oh my god, my favorite Belinda single. (Sorry, "Heaven Is a Place on Earth"!) Can't believe we failed you...

Runaway Horses might be her best single I fear though!

 

We also missed on We Got The Beat :cries2:

There were no major upsets in the first round of the Kelly Division, though one showdown came close. #2 "Material Girl" faced a fierce contest against another gay favorite, #15 "YMCA," ultimately pulling away from a tie in the final string of votes to avoid elimination. Overall top seed #1 "Since U Been Gone" cruised through, as did #3 "It's All Coming Back to Me Now", #4 "Get Lucky" and #5 "You're Still the One". Despite some strong pockets of support for the funky stylings of #11 "Don't Cha" and #10 "Case of the Ex," they proved no match for #6 "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" and #7 "Beautiful", respectfully. In what turned out to be the most competitive match-up, #9 "Drunk In Love" squeaked past #8 "Nobody's Supposed To Be Here" by a single vote.

 

(1) "Since U Been Gone" Kelly Clarkson def. (16) "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me" Elton John [30-5]

(9) "Drunk In Love" Beyoncé ft. Jay-Z def. (8) "Nobody's Supposed To Be Here" Deborah Cox [18-17]

(4) "Get Lucky" Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers def. "Back At One" Brian McKnight [26-9]

(3) "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" Céline Dion def. (14) "Superstar" The Carpenters [25-10]

(6) "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" Eve ft. Gwen Stefani def. (11) "Don't Cha" Pussycat Dolls ft. Busta Rhymes [20-15]

(7) "Beautiful" Christina Aguilera def. (10) "Case of the Ex" Mýa [22-13]

(2) "Material Girl" Madonna def. (15) "YMCA" Village People [20-15]

 

We move next to the Gaga Division, where the top seed is Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance," which got stuck at #2 for seven non-consecutive weeks in late 2009 and early 2010 behind Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' "Empire State of Mind" and Kesha's "Tik Tok." In each of the match-ups below, please pick the song that makes you want its love and want its revenge. Happy voting!

Lights would beat half of the songs in this set, but not Breathe. :sad: And I prefer When Doves Cry and Let's Go Crazy to Purple Rain, so I don't mind voting against Prince; Crazy is that good, anyways.

"Bad Romance" Lady Gaga vs. "*****" Meredith Brooks -

as a 30 year old millennial and, me being MLD, I consider ***** to be a pretty good 90s song to choose as a theme song on here since I'm...MLD. But...I was a little monster in high school and I still think Bad Romance is a top notch song. 


"Freak Like Me" Adina Howard vs. "Kiss Me" Sixpence None the Richer

I love me some butt naked dudes. 


"In the End" Linkin Park vs. "Rhythm Nation" Janet Jackson

I hate doing this to Janet but In the End is an amazing song.


"Can't Let Go" Mariah Carey vs. "Need You Now" Lady A

Mariah sounds great but that dated 90s production is just...I'll have no problem letting go of this one. The production on Need You Now on the other hand sounds immaculate and I actually enjoy the song more as an adult than I did as a teen. 

 

"Purple Rain" Prince and the Revolution vs. "Crazy" Gnarls Barkley

Never liked Crazy so this was easy. 


"Hit 'Em Up Style (Oops!)" Blu Cantrell vs. "Wide Awake" Katy Perry

My all time favorite Katy Perry song and her best music video. Blu stood no chance here. 


"I Knew You Were Trouble." Taylor Swift vs. "Survivor" Destiny's Child

Taylor peaked at #2 with this in my birthday month. So, yeah. I care about my January #2s. 


"Breathe" Faith Hill vs. "Lights" Ellie Goulding

Lights got blocked by Flo Rida...what a tragedy. Anyways, I always liked this more than Breathe anyway. I hear both of them at the grocery store I work at and I prefer hearing Lights over Breathe.
