Shame the Radiohead song to make the list wasn't one of their better ones, tbh...

Fake Plastic Trees is great, but How Soon Is Now is , well, MORE great. Glad it was saved.FPT should have been in longer, though, IMO.

Can't say I'm sorry to see the 'Chasing Cars' go, and though I love Aerosmith, 'Don't Want to Miss A Thing' is one of their weakest songs , so I don't mind seeing it gone.

Glad to see most of the best of the original list (IMO, of course) are still in the running!

I was gutted when those two were the bottom two. I love FPT, brings back so many memories, but like you, I though How Soon Is Now was the better song.

Sadly, I think a similar decision will happen most nights from here on in during this competition now.
