I think you mean Oasis and Manic Street Preachers ;)

Odd to see classics by Aretha Franklin and Paul Simon lose to Hips Don't Lie.

Anyway, I nominate:
Wild Beasts - All the King's Men

Now here's something: most of the songs only have 1-3 votes so far...and Supermassive Black Hole has 7. Are people only coming in and voting for that one song? Why is it so lopsided?
