Looking like Sorrow will prevail but today of all days I Feel Love and hope to see Johnny, and co, come home triumphant

Not a huge fan of the Bowie one but that Bronski Beat one - oooooffffffff..........

Has to be Bowie. Anything else is just wrong, simple as.

Waiting for the train at High Wycombe I'll take Bronski Beat up to 2 even though it's not mine. I suspect I'll be receiving similar low numbers of votes later on.

After hearing both original songs, I'll give a nod to Bronski Beat's interpretation in taking a 1961 2 minute 'death dittie' and turning it into 6 minutes with the help of Donna Summer. And unlike John Leyton, Bronski Beat didn't need to bring on a female singer to hit those notes.

My wife is still a fan of that song/group from the 80's when I first heard it, so the assist is in. Plus I wouldn't want Rob to think I always simply vote for that face painter. ;-)

Good God. It’s like choosing between firing squad and the hangman’s noose!

I’ll abstain.

You could always vote for both...
