The second round of the
Beauty Division took us to our first tiebreaker. In a vote that came down to the wire,
#5 "Under the Sea" squeaked past #4 "Theme from
Shaft." Our other match-ups weren't nearly so exciting. Top seeds
#1 "Beauty and the Beast",
#2 "Streets of Philadelphia" and
#3 "Flashdance... What a Feeling" all proved strong competitors, earning twice as many votes as their opponents.
