In order reduced the search for the definitive songs for each day to a digestible, bite-size (indeed, FUN-size!) task, we're working Copa Mundial-style. Five small groups, making for easier reviews. The champs from each of the five groups advance, along with the top three runners up.

Please vote for TWO of the following.

Rankings are based on your votes from the original poll.

1. “Ruby Tuesday" - The Rolling Stones (#1 overall seed)

No others at this stage, please.

I tried to vote for 2 but only one shows up. If you can, put me down for the Stones as well.

Sorry, got called away and forgot to fix the poll. Double voting now enabled.

That Minders song is pretty good once it stops being a dry jazz instrumental.

Sort of a renaissance fanfare, but yeah, that's 30 seconds of boochit before 2:45 of solid power pop. I'm picking it anyway. The Stones track is played out certainly, but trying to hear it again for the first time is rewarding enough.

I'm abdicating. Abandoning. Friday killed this.

Should have started with shorter polls. Going with longer ones at the start dissolved any interest, and now the short ones are orphaned. ORPHANED!

WAAAH!

I like these. Longer ones were too long but these are short enough that you can listen to the songs.

Re: Tunes for Tuesday, Breakout Group A

I appreciate that and agree, but three voters aren't speaking volumes.

Oh well, I've got Thursday cued up.

I'm feeling bibbly-bubbly Yaz and T-Bone's blues. Call me Mary Contrary.

Hey! You know what you wanted to get to last week but may not have found the time for? Voting for two of these moving and lilting songs!
