I really like Rock lobster and Rat trap, but there were just so many good songs

9. Whitneyfan (71 points) Toy Dolls - Nellie The Elephant
A song that will haunt your dreams, not in a bad way but good luck getting Nellie The Elephant out your head for at least the next 3 weeks, you have Whitneyfan to thank for that

I really liked Boomtown Rats as a kid but they just don't do anything for me anymore, they are good just don't feel them. 'Rock Lobster' is a little marmitey as are The B52s in general tbf I managed to give them points.

One of my very first memories is of people singing Nellie the Elephant to me - and to my parents credit, it was definitely this version they were singng along to. It all came flooding back and ended up getting a lot more points than anticipated!

8. Razzle Dazzle (74 points) Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Gold Lion
Three maximum points from Roo, Hupin and Andy, the most top scores for any song this round but that was only good enough for 8th place, that's how congested this scoreboard ended up

10. Smokeyb (57 points) America - A Horse With No Name
We had a wide variety of animals on display this round, but which animal will come out on top? Sadly not Horse but it had its fair share of love amongst Haven, scoring consistently throughout No fracking way!! That is an absolute classic!!

I thought I'd be last again! I really wasn't expecting much love for Nellie The Elephant, but I just couldn't resist entering it!

I voted for Yeah Yeah Yeah's but certainly didn't expect it to come above the B52's or Boomtown Rats

7. Shireblogger (83 points) Squeeze - Cool For Cats
Surprisingly this song was really struggling in the bottom 2 for a long time but a big 15 points from Smokeyb and a few 2nd and 3rd places pushed it nicely up the leaderboard and it picked up speed from there

This is the first single I ever bought, so it always appears in any of my favourite songs of all time.

It is one of my absolute favourite 70s songs , i was very young when I first heard it always thought it was quite mysterious and spooky as a 5 year old hehe

6. Andy (86 points) Lynyrd Skynyrd – Freebird
In 6th place we have the brilliant Freebird with its 6 minute guitar solo, me and Big Dan gave it 15 points but it just wasn’t enough to break the top 5, it was Andy's 2nd choice song so good result considering the circumstances

5. Greendemon (87 points) Foo Fighters – Monkey Wrench
Another 2nd choice song after her first choice was taken but it has to settle for 5th place and runner up in the battle of the songs with monkey in them

Other than Squeeze not being in it, the top 5 is as I might have predicted
Edit: But the track I thought might just edge the win has come 5th...
