Video Killed the Radio Star is the most iconic song of the Mtv generation. That was the first video.

Looks like we will finally eliminate Falco. Always hated that song.

Chumba vs Devo - though Chumbawamba had a better voting record coming into the match up, I thought the older alt classic song might carry the day.
Sir vs Eagle - Baby Got Back had been pulling 72.5% of the vote to Eagle-Eye's 53%...surprised it was this close. Divynals vs The Buggles - another instance where I thought the older classic alt tune might be able to pull an upset. Close but no cigar... Modern English vs Falco - these two songs came in with the exact same vote percentages (76%), but obviously one road was tougher than the other. With 31 votes, I Melt With You was the only easy win - does it make it the favorite to come out of this pod now, or was Falco just an easy match-up this late in the bracket?
