The Eighth Songfactors' Choice Ultimate Top Ten - {Final Round}

[MindCrime]

[big]FINAL ROUND[/big]

* No nominations are required, as the songs have been selected from our previous 25 top tens.

* Voting rules will be exactly the same as the normal top tens - rank your favourite songs in the list from 1-10, and 10 points will be given to your number 1 song, 9 for number 2 etc.

* It would be difficult to come up with a top ten from all 250 songs, so the songs have been seeded and split into fair groups.

* The results will be announced in about 5 days from the start date of this thread.

* This is the final group, and this group contains 50 songs. These songs were the top 10 winners from the previous 5 rounds and are now merged into one final round.
