there are a few disappointingly low this round Kind of inevitable when there are so many great songs! There is one song that I wasn't a fan of but expect will do rather well.

9 Thorney (51 points) YES - Owner Of A Lonely Heart
Today the owner of a lonely heart is Thorney, a lower mid table finish isn’t too bad considering the quality of the other songs that finished below his entry

there are a few disappointingly low this round You can say that again. I thought it would do well with 2 people entering it! but with only scoring 8 songs points it was too frequently missed off or got low points

8 Whitneyfan (57 points) Prince - Let's Go Crazy
Coming in just above “Owner Of A Lonely Heart” is Whitneyfan with Prince, Big Dan gave it his big points which in a tight bottom section was enough for a decent 8th place

7 Earl Purple (60 points) David Bowie - Ashes To Ashes
David Bowie song number 6 so far in this contest, the most used artist by a long way, maybe we were Bowie’d out after having 3 songs by him in the last round, Smokeyb didn’t think so but it seems he was one of the only ones

A bit disappointing for Prince, but glad Bowie didn't win again.

One of my least favourite Bowie songs I'm afraid. I thought it would do much better though.

6 Manickangaroo (92 points) The Cult – She Sells Sanctuary
Brilliant song, no idea what he is singing about but it’s one of my personal favourites here, Hupin gave it his top points and as you can see the jump from 7th to 6th is massive, the top 6 were always well ahead of the rest

5 Milliways (100 points) The Pixies – Debaser
Debaser got the most maximum points (Thorney, Roo, Darkstar and Greendemon) but proved very marmite, no other song managed more than 2 maximum points so it’s a surprise to see this in 5th but it did break the 100 point barrier suggesting it is a high scoring round

4 Shireblogger (105 points) Martha & Muffins - Echo Beach
Great catchy 80’s song, there was plenty of love around the middle part of the voting, at one stage it looked like it could rise up to win but just fell short, Milliways helped it to finish just above his entry by giving it his 15 points, which was nice of him

Echo Beach is an absolute classic so I'm pleased it did so well.
I'll be happy whichever of the remaining 3 tracks win. They're all stone cold classics IMO.

3 Raliverpool (117 points) Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
Quintessential 80s, a bit monotone and samey for me but Whineyfan and Andy gave it their top points, it also scored consistently well throughout coming in several top 3’s

Echo Beach is one of those songs that's never caught on with me. I didn't even realise it was that popular or highly regarded.

2 Andy (121 points) Bon Jovi - Livin’ on a Prayer
Proving that Haven do have a sweet tooth, I don’t think many could argue that this isn’t Bon Jovi at their best, Earl Purple and Manic gave it top marks but that wasn’t quite enough to help Andy to his 4th straight win but did put him above Raliverpool with the last set of votes…which means
