Music Cup 2015 Round 9: War & Peace

First topic message reminder :

The two top dogs show once again that their finger is on the pulse of picking songs that are bland, not obscure/offensive and appeal to the unwashed massive. Compelling & Tino get a big 10 points each and heading into the last two rounds it's a two horse race surely for the title!
Rick_Dagless suffers a Stevie Gerrard style slip up with a miserable 0 points for his Muse choice and has plummeted down to 5th in the overall ranking.
Adam looks to have won the battle of the founders as we both scored a respectable 7 points for Prince and Jay Z, but with 2 weeks remaining he's 6 points ahead of me.
The big surprise this week though is...

GALTED GOT SOME POINTS!!!!

He went more Old School than Bamber Gascoigne and it got him more points than Sean's had hot women (or women in general). He's up to a magnificent 18th place overall now and only 1 point behind Rowley, who'll prevail in the battle of the anti-hipsters?

Next round is... Nobelium & Mendelevium!
Pick 3 songs in which the artist or song refers to a chemical element. Oh and as it's the last round then it's double point bonanza!

Oh and for this round, was it really that hard to pick songs that actually referred to war or peace in the title/artist rather than pick a song about but didn't reference it, we're 9 rounds in now and you're still failing!!

Don't apologise Rowley you shouldn't have to sulphur in silence.

I thought the comments were all ironic

I thought they were all like rain on your wedding day; or a free ride when you've already paid.

rain on your wedding isn't ironic. If you knew that then that will make my comment ironic, I think!!!

It's only ironic if you're Paul the Weatherman from Look North and predicted the weather would be fine for your (gay) Wedding day.

Further irony would include Michael Fish getting married and it blowing a hurricane or John Kettley getting married and receiving nothing but kettles as wedding gifts

Despite the haters and naysayers there will be a final round to put this to rest and crown a champion.

I am though awaiting choices from the following:

CJB
Stella
Galted
Trebs
DancingWeeMan
SeanMichaels

Please can I have these in asap.

That's for Rowley.

Alistair, perhaps step up to the plate and run the next one?

I would, but I wouldn't want to embarrass myself, and i'd forever be in Tino's shadow.

Think you've managed the embarrassing yourself quite well already based upon the sycophantic attempts to get on peoples lists in the past few weeks.

No shame in that.

L*l

You've just made it into my top 3! (founders list)

Now Rowley isn't here Alistar only has Tino to impress, and thats a weird situation to put yourself in when your hero gets beaten up by his own children. There's a level of self-hatred there that Alistar is really battling.

my ruthlessness efficiency is not looking so bad now, is it?

Oh how you mocked my two rounds a week, with multiple entries for the same song and others missing. But I bet you all think of them as the good old days now.

Disappointing.

Results!

I get my second winner with ironically the band I was going to pick on the round I won last time (for the body round I was originally going to pick Heart of Glass), as a result I'm back to 2 points behind Adam heading into the last round.
The two way duke out for the top though carries on with Tino getting 9 and Compelling getting 8 points, either are worthy winners due to their consistency each & every round.
Dancingweeman scores a respectable 8 points for his leftfield pick of Martika.
