I agree with Spanky thats some of the older ones are not getting through beacuse people just don't bother listening to them and just award the songs they already know, I've said it all before. I just hope that the legend of the song from (:ie: 1966) Dickie Rock will qualify.

Peace Out

The past few rounds we had a lot of older songs make it through. This round the votes were so far spread out, as you can see it was really close and Denmark 1963 was only 3 points away from qualification. Don't give up hope ;)

so basically all 2000's song are going through. the oldest song so far to qualify is from 1971. frustrating, all you children who only vote for the most recent songs. im only 26 and i feel like the only one who appreciates the older songs.
I feel the same. Far too many 2000 songs going through. My all-time favorites are between the years 1963-1993. I just wish I had discovered this 'contest' a little sooner so I could have helped vote through some of them.

I agree with Spanky thats some of the older ones are not getting through beacuse people just don't bother listening to them and just award the songs they already know, I've said it all before. I just hope that the legend of the song from (:ie: 1966) Dickie Rock will qualify.
It sure seems like that is the case, isn't it? Something's not right when over half of the songs going through to the second round are from the last decade only, with the remaining 4½ decades sharing the other percent.

About the '00s... Well guys it's a matter of taste. Why should I vote for something I don't like? I have voted and I will keep voting for older songs if I like them. I have discovered some really great songs through this contest and I'm glad about it.

Matt, I know you don't want to show us the points of the songs that are going through but would it be possible to give us our votes after we're done with this round?

I think the noughties songs have the advantage of us having heard them many times before. We might not have liked these on first listen, but they've had the chance to grow on us. I certainly wouldn't give any points to Serbia 2010 in this round if I'd just listened to it for the first time. It's grown on me a lot since last year.

Listening to older songs for the first time, a lot can depend on what mood I'm in. It's much more of a lottery as to which I pick.

I vote for the newer songs because I like them more. Most of the older songs don't appeal to me. Simple as that.
