Round 2 results will consist of:
who correctly predicted any of the songs:
Nobody managed to correctly forecast any of the songs that appeared. It seems the 80s had so much more dance-orientated music that made it harder. "Ride On Time" by Blackbox and "Fade To Grey" by Visage were among the songs forecast to appear.
Who predicted what won (Theme From S Express, but who predicted it?)
Shireblogger had this spot on, o and smokeyb had it 3rd on their lists for 1 point.
Who predicted what came last (Jam Machine - Funky Let's Go)
More frequently guessed, o, Shireblogger and greendemon all made it their first choice to be bottom whilst smokeyb had it as his second choice.
Who managed to successfully marry up a contestant with their song.
Once the first couple of predictions came in where @lastridgeracer and DJ nordy both thought the other had entered "Into The Groove" it was clear to me that neither had. Somebody also thought raliverpool had S-Express. In reality raliverpool had "Into The Groove". DJ nordy didn't have Kelly Marie either so nobody predicted this correctly.
Thus only the top and bottom songs got anyone any points this round. I had fewer people enter in spite of having had less to predict. (TheThorne and Razzle Dazzle didn't predict)

Firstly if you haven't yet predicted what will come up in round 4, please do so.
Once again, please predict for the 90s:
- what song you think will win (1/2/3 in order) - What song you think will come last (16th), 3 guesses in priority order.
- Marry up any contestant with their song (can't be yourself)
As a bonus extra question, what is the nationality of the winning act. If the act is primarily a production duo then either producer's nationality. If it's a group then any formal member of the band that performed on the hit, or the lead vocalist even if featured, but not a sampled act.
Ok, that may be complicated but S-Express would count as British because Mark Moore was the main producer, but not the USA even those Rose Royce who are American were sampled on it.
