Sorry for taking so long to update this game, but I've been gone for the last two weeks traveling. However, considering the increasingly lackluster response, I don't think any really missed my personal survivor anyways. Does anyone even read what I write here? I could probably write anything here and no one would even notice or care... Alright, eight more songs were eliminated this round, including a couple of my very favorites. Among the tracks cut from the competition: Seal's amazing dance track "Amazing"; "Boys Boys Boys," another Lady Gaga entry; Melissa Ethridge's underrated "Breathe"; "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)," Missy Elliot's mind-bending rap breakthrough; Brandy's gorgeous "Long Distance"; recent #1s "Right Round" by Flo Rida and "Take a Bow" by Rihanna; and finally, alterna-hip hop queen M.I.A.'s "Boyz."

We have now reached round 8 and there are only 34 songs left in the competition! This time, please vote out 6 songs and save 3. Britney Spears' "Circus" is immune.
As usual, I strongly encourage to listen to any songs you don't know. Clearly, no one pays attention to these pleas, as pretty much any lesser known song is gone by now. But whatever, I went through the trouble of embedded YouTube videos of all the tracks below, so I might as well keep encouraging you to take a listen...

Thanks to everyone who voted last round. Six more songs are eliminated, including a couple of songs that I truly love and I am sad to see go. The top vote-getter is Third Eye Blind's "Jumper," a modern rock classic from the '90s. Vanessa Carlton's "Hands On Me," a song I first heard on "Gossip Girl," and U2's "Beautiful Day," which may be my all-time favorite song (why did you all have to vote it off?!) also received a high number of votes. Finally, "L.E.S. Artistes," a fantastic alternative track by Santagold; "Cry Me a River," Justin Timberlake's post-break up kiss-off to Britney; and "I Kissed a Girl," Katy Perry's breakthrough hit, were all kicked out of the competition.
