... on the work's playlist.

Better tracks than the previous week. My vote has to go to Down Under, fantastic song. Mentions to The Scientist, Jessie's Girl and the good, if overplayed, Don't Look Back in Anger.

For me it's Elton by a country mile.

The Oasis song is one of the few I like by them but I'm heartily sick of it. Went with Elton as it's just a fantastic melody and brilliantly sang.

Down Under is excellent as well.

Elton by 3 country miles. Sticks out like a sore thumb among a catalogue of dross.

List could be moderately improved by replacing Dollys 9 to 5 with Sheena's 9 to 5.

No bum tracks in the bunch. Went with Aha because it's so epic. Elton seems to be winning, it's just never been my favorite of his.

Hello,

In my opinion, there are some really bad songs here. I'd be out of this store quickly. Elton John is an easy winner.

Funny, my reaction was that, on the whole, this was the most disappointing group yet, but I also went with “Take On Me,” cos I still dig it.

That's a great Elton song, but Take On Me has long been a fave. Just a fantastic track that still sounds great today.

I did give a thought to Down Under...which is also a great track.

Eye of the Tiger is pretty good as well.

This is the biggest suck fest yet.

Eternal Flame though because Susana Hoffs is hella hot.

In an absolutely cheesy shitty way that somehow achieves entertaining status. But it's awful.

It's pairs well with the cheesy Rocky III.

True. It is a robot butler of a song.

Agreed. I chose Jessie's Girl.

A-Ha for me. Really great pop song. Doesn't sound dated either
