Superstition! That double guitar funkiness is what it's all about. Those guitar players just crush that song. And the bass doesn't quit, ofc. One of my favorite songs of alltime. When I thought about entering this seriously(i really didn't have time) this woulda been my pick for funky category. And I wouldn't have given a funk what Mb rated it. Cuz I know.

Yeah - I know MB loves James Brown - he digs stevie too.

I knew he hates 70s hard rock but I had to put War Pigs in there....

I was suprised he likes what I would call 80s skater punk...

I'm going to give the final standings in a sec. Thanks to everyone for taking part. It's not easy to put your beloved songs up for "ranking" by someone who you suspect doesn't like anything you like. I'm sorry if you felt I should have rated something I didn't, or did rate something you think I shouldn't.

Congratulations to ||.||.||

A consistent selection of songs, with a couple of really great choices that put him over the top.

Well done to the podium: Nick Royale, who would have won of course if he had played it safer at the final hurdle; and Digger, who was consistent and put up some great stuff.

Thanks particularly to soma84, Gimme Dat and Bloobird, who entered songs new to me that I really liked a lot. soma84 would likely have won if he'd stayed German!

I almost went for this for something funky, I think it had potential

You can even hear the sample used in Gossip Folks!

Thx for letting me in for the sweat, even if I couldn't properly from my phone since spoilers suck on the app & my entries were always hidden where I couldn't see them til getting on a computer. Stupid app.

Grats lines & podium, thx for running.

I kind of felt I was at an unfair advantage from knowing so much about MB's music taste that if I couldn't afford a big risk after the first 8 categories I didn't deserve to win anyway. The fact that I failed at some of the earlier categories is what really cost me the win.

Grats lines and dots!

I realise there is some contention between Jigga and Nas, but I have decided Jigga rules and Nas doesn't. Thanks for sharing your opinion though

Anytime. As an optimist I'll just have to believe that in the future you can better yourself as a person by not loving an overrated hip-popper who steals rhymes from those better than him

Well, you may in time grow out of supporting second best purely as an act of rebellion agains the Emperor of Rap.

omg I think I've been trying to find the Catch song for something like 6 years unsuccessfully

<3 Roo (I assume Roo submitted it, would be shocked if anyone else had :P). For some reason it reminds me a lot of Sing it Back
