      No, because "Twilight Zone" was an even bigger hit for them.

        Open Letter (to a Landlord) & Type. Those were Top 10 on the US Main (rock) chart, and we did say if an artist was successful elsewhere it would eliminate them from this, so that's good enough

          • Disappointed in my Big Country first round matchup. Cannonball is one of my favorites on the list. Conversely, whatever Closing Time is up against is my second least favorite song on the list, only beating out Closing Time.

              I'm just here for the baseball.

                  Agree that matchup was a toss up as both songs kick ass. Went with "Cannonball".

                  • Loved those 8-9 matchups. Not easy to decide.

                    A lot of chalk on my votes, but a few upsets here and there.

                    • Did we miss “Ice Ice Baby” or did that not make the cutline?

                      ETA - nevermind. He wasn’t a one hit wonder somehow! He did a remake of “Play That Funky Music” that hit #4.

                        I'll be pretty surprised if any 1-3 seeds go down but there are a couple 4 & 5s I see as vulnerable.

                            Also "Pop Muzik" by M. I loved that song as a kid.

                              that's a strange one to list here.

                                I gave Baby Got Back a little love, although I don't expect them to pull off the 16-1 upset.
