I don’t understand this pairing:

4 1960 “Running Bear” Johnny Preston
4 1965 “You Were on My Mind” We Five

Everything else is matched by the year. These two are 5 years apart.

To: Alas Babylon!

I spent most of Thursday agonizing about how to pair them.

I gave up in the end and did the best I could.

There are only 4 #7 songs to match up with the top 6 from each of 10 years, so it always is a struggle to do this. I think this was harder than my previous incarnations because the #7s that came out were more strangely spaced than previous tournaments.

Is post #7 correct? I selected one song from each pairing but didn’t rank any of my choices.

Summer Place
Teen Angel
I’m Sorry
Michael
Roses are Red
Johnny Angel
I can’t stop loving you
He’s so fine
The end of the world
Everybody loves somebody
I get around
Oh pretty woman
You’ve lost that lovin feeling
Downtown
Monday Monday
Cherish
Soul and inspiration
Reach out I’ll be there
To sir with love
Windy
The letter
Sunshine of your love
Sittin on the dock of the bay
Live us blue
Everyday people
Hot fun in the summertime
Aquarius

Yes, you are fine.

There is no ranking anymore. Just pairings for “play-offs”. There are 7 total rounds as a result (i.e., weeks).
