I've got my doubts in 1991 and 1992. Also, I've refused to decide in the years in which I strongly dislike both songs you choose.
Congratulations for choosing Sinead O'Connor's wonderful "Reason With Me". I like "RNR Love Affair" a lot, but my vote has to be for Sinead. [Edited 3/12/13 7:08am] | |

Nice to see that someone elce likes the new Sinead songs. I really like 4th and Vine aswell. Shes had a little bit of airplay in Ireland. How did you get to hear of the album? | |

Her last album has been published in Spain, and it has received very good reviews. I think it's a brilliant album. | |

Good luck tonight ZAVI but I reckon overturning a 2-0 deficit against AC Milan may be beyond Baca. | |

It will be difficult, but not impossible. If Barça shows its best version, they can do it!
You're right, I should have a couple more Britney's in there, Toxic and Womaniser and I should have If I was Your Girlfriend instead of Forever in my Life. | |

I like your song picks, but some of them are as arbitrary as it gets.
"Forever In My Life" vs "Sweetest Thing"? Wasn't the latter a U2 B-side?
Something like "Adore" vs "With Or Without You" would have made a bit more sense to me.
edit - can't criticize you for putting Christy Moore's "Black Is The Colour" there though! [Edited 3/12/13 12:25pm] | |

I was just picking my favourite Prince & non Prince songs each year. Sweetest thing just happens to be w b-side from the overrated Joshua tree album which robbed SOTT at the Grammy's that year. It's also ky favourite U2 song. Irresistible Bitch was also a b-side. | |
