The Second Songfactors' Choice Ultimate Top Ten - Round 3

[c_s_1987]

[big]THE SECOND SONGFACTORS' CHOICE ULTIMATE TOP TEN - ROUND 3[/big]

- No nominations are required, as the songs have been selected from our 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.

- We have decided to restrict eligibility to vote to only those people who have nominated or voted in at least one of our Top Tens. We think that's fair !

- We realised it would be ridiculous to expect people to come up with a top ten from all 250 songs, so I have seeded the songs and split them into fair groups.

- The results will be announced in about a week from the start date of this thread.

- This is Group 3 of 5, and this group contains 50 songs. I will then combine the five top tens together to form a group, and then we will vote on these songs to form the Ultimate Top Ten.

The order of the bottom 40 songs is correct. I will add the points each of the bottom 40 songs received later, if the post is still editable.

Why does everyone seem to hate the album Led Zeppelin II all of a sudden?

Seriously, though, Heartbreaker got barely any votes when I nominated it, an the same happened to Whole Lotta Love here. I might have to nominate Moby Dick, Thank You or Bring It On Home and see if they can do any better. I'll leave the nomination of What Is And What Should Never Be to someone else.

[Farin]

no surprises in the Ten

and Chris, you've got the Immigrant Song in it who cares what album it's from?

on the other hand the first 90s song is Loser on #22
