6001/6096: Heats, Week 7
The way this game works is that you will be given two sets of four songs, your job is to rank each of the sets from best to worst. First place gets 4 points, second gets 3 etc.
The song with the most points in each set will advance to the semi-finals. If there is a tie for points, then the song with more first place votes will advance. If they are tied on first place votes as well, there will be a sudden death tiebreak. Also the six highest scoring non-winners in the heat stage (based off point per voter and then percentage of first place votes) will also advance to the semi-finals.
Feel free to ask any questions, deadline is next Wednesday at 15:00 UTC.

Group 1 was pretty weak, as evidenced by a Dylan song being in first place when I've never been a huge fan of his.

Last Resort has the two questionable distinctions of being a) the first song in this game to have an AMV as the top link when the song is Googled and b) the first song I can't take seriously due to its inclusion in a Weird Al polka.

I gave first place to a pleasant, but standard song about a guy washing his tears with soap. So, what went wrong here. Last Resort is an odd mix between self-seriousness and unintentional silliness, but I can handle this. I wrote about Burn Baby Burn for my 10.000 Songs project and wasn't particularly nice to it back then and now had to conclude that I couldn't remember at all how it went. That's bad enough but Who Wants to Live Forever is one of those rare songs I don't just dislike, but hate. It turned me off of Queen for a while. Everything about it is overdone in a bad way. It feels rife for the guilty pleasure poll, but it won't get my vote.

That Queen song seems destined only to get top or bottom positions. To be fair it explicitly references 'Somewhere (There's a Place for Us)' which was on my guilty pleasures list, so they knew what they were going for and it's fair to say they achieved something like it.

I dont have strong feelings, either positive or negative, for any of these songs so it's kinda hard to rank them to be honest.
