This isn't as easy as I thought. Had it been a draw and gone to penalties, Lonely Night would have shaded it over Joanne. But Forty-Five Hundred Times is Lionel Messi to Slow Train's Ronaldo. Not much in it, but enough to turn the tide in Hello!'s favour. At the end of the day, the real difference turned out to be Drifting Away. Harry Maguire to Blue Eyed Lady's Virgil van Dyk. Close for Quo, but no banana 🍌 I'd rather have Joanne than Lonely Night, but I do like both. I used to know a Joanne, but you wouldn't want to have her on a Lonely Night

The real final!
Despite the great performance of Softer Ride and ROLD , Just Take me scored on extra time giving a 5-4 for QUO in one of the best match ever!

This is turning out to be the classic we were all expecting it to be.
Mid field tracks in the first half and I have got to say Hello cannot keep up the pacevwith Quo.
Just Take Me and Break The Rules just cannot be beat.
I have it 2-0 to Quo on this one so far.
Live update on the other semi final and its still 4-0 to Pildriver with WYW still not getting a look in .

On a bit of a roll now and so to close my first half in this epic contest we have Blue Eyed Lady v Drifting Away
Its another tough call and one I am struggling to find a winner. However on the 1 point must system , I have gone for Drifting Away based purely on the two lines. "Now my friend has a broken nose And I've got a broken jaw"
Remarkably thats a 3-0 sweep for Quo in the first half but the scoreline surely doesnt reflect the action ?
Second half to follow.
Overall live scores as it stands now is: Hello 5 - Quo 1 Piledriver 4 - Whatever You Want 0
Plenty of time for a turnaround in both matches.

PILEDRIVER v WHATEVER YOU WANT: I like both the opening tracks, but I just have to give my vote to Don't Waste My Time. Too be honest I'm not keen on either of the 2nd tracks, but Shady Lady, just shades it!! 1:1 Now I have a problem...2 of my favourite track 3's and I'm going have to split the vote. ½ : ½ Track 4 has to be Unspoken Words, to put Piledriver 2½ : 1½ Big Fat Mama takes my vote over Living On An Island, but again that was tight. I have always like Come Rock With Me/ Rockin' On, but Paper Plane, with its no nonsense in ya face intro takes my vote for Piledriver again and that goes for the rest of the album with Piledriver taking a comfortable victory.

2nd half for me and Caroline v DTM.
Despite the fact that my tab is DTM , I couldnt call myself Caroline
Hello pulls one back 3-1
Mid field second half and the mighty Softer Ride teams up with And its Better Now. Despite valiant resistence from Where I Am , Fine Fine Fine just cannot offer the support to prevent Quo from been over run.
Quo 3 -2 Hello 2...then ....
Forty Five Hundred Times v Slow Train !!!
theres nobody on the end of my line , I cant afford a ticket , Beeee my Friend, I guess it doesnt matter as Long as I can get a table for two. Guess it doesnt matter, I told you how much I care.
Impossible !
However despite the kick back the classic outro takes us into extra time , 45 just about takes it 3-3
To avoid a draw , we go to extra time and Lonely Night pinches it from Joanne in the battle of bonus tracks . Too little too late ? QUO PULLS ONE BACK 4-3
I make that overall 5 -2 to Hello despite the ref getting hounded by Quo fans...just the weekend to go.

I'd rather have Joanne than Lonely Night, but I do like both. I used to know a Joanne, but you wouldn't want to have her on a Lonely Night I had a Joanne and it was a terrible night.
