It's hard to believe for some but Heaven isn't set for the Final, as it finishes in a still worthy 3rd place finish. Bryan Adams reported DISAPPOINTED.

It's time to crown a championne!

You are VOTING FOR A WINNER from the two songs in the Final. The most votes will have the victory of Survivor 2002. Let's go!
 
Do people really prefer P!nk over GA? I mean, I like both, but SOTU was a cultural reset.
 
I sort of want to vote for Pink but I can’t quite bring myself to do it.

It was difficult for me to do, but I had to be honest with myself and SOTU is just not one of my fave GA songs. JLP is timeless and one of her best.
 
I don't think Sound Of The Underground is even the best number one of 2002 performed by a British girl group, let alone the best number one of 2002 full stop.
 
My head is saying Just Like A Pill (it's the better song) but my heart is saying Sound of the Underground (still brilliant, and also birthed GIRLS ALOUD, one of the greatest groups of all time for goodness sake). My heart won.

So you voted for the song that you think is not better?

For me Sound of the Underground is not a go to Girls Aloud song and feel they got so much better as time went on. Just like a Pill is still one of Pinks best to these ears even though it was early on in her career too. So Pink wins for me.

That was exactly my reasoning Reet!
 
I don’t think I’ve heard Just Like a Pill for at least 10 years. I generally like Pink a lot, but it’s not one I’d personally say has particularly held up well. SOTU while not GA’s best, I could easily just think of it and have it in my head for the rest of the day.
