TOURNAMENT OF CHART-TOPPERS 1950S PING LIST
(This is a temporary ping list... so don’t worry!) RUN-OFFS FROM ROUND 2 RESULTS:
"Wheel of Fortune" beats "Auf Wiederseh'n"
and
"Oh! My Pa-Pa" beats "Little Things Mean A Lot"
Thanks to all who helped break the ties!
Round 3 posted separately next.
Interesting tidbits on the survey:
-MOST VOTES - "Mona Lisa”
-FEWEST VOTES - “(Play a) Simple Melody" - its opponent! Simple Melody - just 1 vote!
-Otherwise, all songs got votes
-several pairs were constantly neck&neck to the wire, including of course the run-off pairs (glad we only had 2!)

Oh, shoot! I missed the run-off ping, due to other pings burying it! I would’ve voted AGAINST Papa. :-)
