chairdriver Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Everybody's saying the same thing: "Use Somebody is good, but I'm voting Hallelujah." I just know that if the draw had been different: Say that Use Somebody was drawn against that Poker Face song, and Hallelujah was up against the Avril Lavigne one. Poker Face and that Avril Lavigne song would have been absolutely trounced. This makes me a sad panda. Yeah, but neither Avril Lavigne nor KOL stand a chance of winning (IMO), so *shrugs shoulders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Hallelujah. Obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yeah, but neither Avril Lavigne nor KOL stand a chance of winning (IMO), so *shrugs shoulders* IYO, obvs. I feel it's a proper shame, as Use Somebody is a great song. Can't get enough of it at the moment. I now hope that amends are to be made when Hallelujah is drawn up against a naff song in the next round, and trounces that one.

Dyson Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Don't worry; I can see Hallelujah easily being the winner of the contest here. Unless Paj accepts my late submission, in which case I'm actually at a loss of which I'd have to vote for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoDesiato Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 It's a bit of cliché song, but still a really good one. Jeff Buckley with Hallelujah gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairdriver Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Don't worry; I can see Hallelujah easily being the winner of the contest here. Feels cliche, and it would make the whole competition feel really pointless if it were to win, but yes, it's one of the few songs that when I look down the list of songs I feel it will go far. I need an unusual song that you could actually remark upon to win. Like, I'd drop everything I was holding and start clapping if the Chu Chu song were to win. Like, it would actually make my week if Call It Off won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Odwin Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I prefer the Kings of Leon track so that gets my vote. I just don't like Hallelujah that much, it goes on for too long (and the version on Shrek is better, whoever sings that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I just don't like Hallelujah that much, it goes on for too long (and the version on Shrek is better, whoever sings that). John Cale. I also prefer that version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomJcg Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I know i'm not in this or whatever (great idea though paj, i'm listening to polysics again) but Lenord Cohens song of hallelujah is the best hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 IYO, obvs. I feel it's a proper shame, as Use Somebody is a great song. Can't get enough of it at the moment. I now hope that amends are to be made when Hallelujah is drawn up against a naff song in the next round, and trounces that one. I know exactly how you feel Villain...I mean some of the matches have artists which in my head I know are amazing (and general music criticism know are good), but I also KNOW will lose to the much more popular artist they're going against. Of course it'll be a crime against everything I stand for, but then it was ALL randomised... ----- Hallelujah - Dominating Use Somebody - Not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganepark32 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 ^ guess it's lucky that Don't Stop Believin' wasn't put in otherwise that'd be worse than Hallelujah's dominance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
