Epic Song Madness (Sweet Sixteen)

[MHaye]

Division A
4 Whole Lotta Love (5:34) - Led Zeppelin
2 Layla (7:05) - Derek And The Dominos

Division B
5 Won’t Get Fooled Again (8:31) - The Who
15 White Room (5:03) - Cream

Division C
7 Bohemian Rhapsody (5:55) - Queen
13 Wish You Were Here (5:19) - Pink Floyd

Division D
3 Bridge Over Troubled Water (5:09) - Simon & Garfunkel

With two songs that I wouldn’t recognise vying against each other for a place in the Group D final, I chose to abstain. Most of the rest were easy, some only by applying the Rossini Principle that I outlined in Round 2.

This one was hard – lots of choices between songs I equally love, and songs I equally hate. The only no-brainer was Cream vs. Rolling Stones.
