So thats that then...it's out of our hands and in the capable hands of Ron and Russell to sort out which tracks will form the basis of the Exotic Creatures Of The Deep encore.

Wow! What a great top 20.

Great work Alex.

I was so close to voting for Moon Over Kentucky, but joint first is pretty good going and I got Marry Me up to joint 7th.

It's a shame to see The Decline and Fall of Me fall down the chart towrads the end as I feel was one of the great highlights of the shows so far. The other two songs Russell has talked about playing on the second set are the Song that Sings Itself and Goofing Off. I would guess that as Goofing Off is joint first that it's probaly the best bet to hear on the night.

There's is many great songs in this list. I wonder how Ron and Russell will choose which ones they play?

I've highligted my favourites in bold.

Can't wait for tomorrow night.

1 / Goofing Off(X11)
2 / Moon Over Kentucky(X11)
3 / Moustache(X10)

9 / The Scene(X7)
10/ Marry Me(X7)

Good choice of songs but it remains to be seen what gets chosen as ultimately it's Sparks who will decide. It's strange to notice there are no tracks from the last two albums. Seeing as the voting closed last night I can't help but think some people just didn't have the thinking time or chance to put a vote in as I'm surprised "Dick Around" (surely Sparks finest!!) and "My Baby's Taking Me home" didn't get in there after the raptuos reception they both got. Will be a great show nonetheless!! (As long as we get "In The Future" of course...)
Well done Alex for your time and effort in doing the counting on this one!! See you Friday!!

I think the reason why there is a lack ofHello Young Lovers and Lil' Beethoven tracks is down to all the fans having Dee Vee Dee and theLil' Beethoven DVD. it's not out of a lack of love. Great list... Can't wait til we get to hear it. Please record it Sparks!

If I was to choose I'd have to go with either 'Dick Around' or 'Now That I Own The BBC'.

I missed the vote. Find it strange that This Town did not make it. It is probably their best song. Everybody thought it would be in anyway?

I voted Moon over Kentucky because of the song itself, but also the life performance of it that REALLY BLEW ME AWAY... Still Dick around is the best, The ryth theif, and so many more. But I am very glad Moon got so many votes!!!
