Good list, although I expected Taylor to get through It will give me a chance to get into older acts.

How many people usually make it through from each week? 2-3?

Not the only three artists from my list making it (I think) being pitted against each other.

I know, the Cobain family was almost going to be completely ignored but luckily I stepped in.

This is the most random week! Not a true frontrunner among the bunch (given that all of Nirvana's biggest hits have already played). Maybe the Chicks finally have a chance!

Cher's catalog goes DEEP. She could be a finale contender, if the voters do her right. (That means NO "If If Could Turn Back Time"!)

Honestly, I'm just praying that y'all are surprised by Namie and rank her enough to hit the top 36 round, and then I can stop pushing for her - the rest of that week is going to be pretty interesting, actually.
