Stay tuned for our main event ... The Ultimate Golden Oldies Top 40 Final Countdown!

[MindCrime]

10. THEN HE KISSED ME - CRYSTALS

Yes , though that also means it's likely to be last place in the final round.

[cyberjudge]

Not necessarily ... as the point totals are all reset for the final 40.

[MindCrime]

I realize that, but it came in last in the wild card which means it probably won't get much support, but on the other hand, it's one of my 3 favorites that has ever made the list, so it will get big points from me. Good list overall.
