Another big-ass set of music polls. Round 6 of 8. That means, if you don't see a favorite here, look at the other 7 before bitching. If it's not on those, either I missed it, or it sucks.

These initial 8 rounds will last until Wednesday evening at 7:00 central time. Then we'll put each rounds winner into a final poll. Weeeee..... Thanks for voting and commenting, as always, I appreciate it.

And some of these are artists that had more than one hit; but I argue that they only had one smash, you could say. I'm looking more for an interesting set of battles than an ultra-strict definition of 1 hit.

Do it! I'd love to see it, and if I can help, let me know.

No, I didn't get my ideas from VH1 lol, I'd say about half came from memory, and the other half, through various websites.

Which I find funny since their song "Sex Dwarf" is so much better of a song than their remake of "Tainted Love/Where has the love gone?"

Isn't it nice?
