Winning 65% of the vote against 3 other options means there is no showdown final round. Going forward, any song where Deborah Harry sings lead is ineligible for consideration.
We will now entertain nominations for Side 1 Track 2. You’ve got around 48 hours.

Oh I agree it's a great song but I think Blondie wrote better.Wolter wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 3:31pmNo shame in a great song winning.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 11:26amShame as there are some great Blondie tracks that could be nominated that are not a cover version.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑05 Jul 2020, 4:30pmOur first song is set:

They did but I voted for it because it was the best song nominated (after The Selecter which obviously wasn’t going to win).Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 4:10pmOh I agree it's a great song but I think Blondie wrote better.Wolter wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 3:31pmNo shame in a great song winning.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 11:26amShame as there are some great Blondie tracks that could be nominated that are not a cover version.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑05 Jul 2020, 4:30pmOur first song is set:

Yeah I'm not complaining that it won as such just that it's a shame it prevents further voting for one of their better songs. It's none the less great though.101Walterton wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 5:19pmThey did but I voted for it because it was the best song nominated (after The Selecter which obviously wasn’t going to win).Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 4:10pmOh I agree it's a great song but I think Blondie wrote better.Wolter wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 3:31pmNo shame in a great song winning.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 11:26amShame as there are some great Blondie tracks that could be nominated that are not a cover version.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑05 Jul 2020, 4:30pmOur first song is set:

There were a few hits as you mentioned in the next reply. None of her material tickled my fancy too much really aside from this corker.matedog wrote: ↑06 Jul 2020, 12:34pmWeird. I remember that song being huge and being the only Annie solo song that ever got any play. Looks like it wasn't dramatically more popular than a lot of her other songs at the time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Lennox_discography

This would be a good choice but I gave my vote. So hard to choose...

I checked discogs.com and "Lucky Number" is Track 1 and 3 on all versions … except the Portuguese edition from 1978/79. So it is technically acceptable.Marky Dread wrote: ↑07 Jul 2020, 4:49amI-I-IIIIIIIIIII!
