Preliminary Round - Part 1We are ready to begin. With 128 songs, it will take a little while to get through the preliminaries. IN fact, it'll take almost as long as the rest of the game after that! I will be doing the preliminary rounds in groups of 16 - that will give you a chance to listen to songs you may not have heard before. The first group is up! Remember, any ties at this stage will be broken by higher bracket number. You can view the entire bracket here! I may have to alter the bracket in some rounds so that there is always a higher bracket, and so that two songs by the same person are not facing off against one another. I will only adjust songs in the first and second rounds - after that it is possible for your songs to face one another. Here are today's contests! Problem - Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea (popstop-1) vs. Best Friends - Foster the People (Juanito -8) Summer - Calvin Harris (flipmusic-4) vs. Hot Natured - Benediction (Invince -5) Only Love Can Hurt Like This - Paloma Faith (Zebra-2) vs. Bo$$ - Fifth Harmony (Surfy-7) I Will Never Let You Down - Rita Ora (indulge-3) vs. Go - Grimes ft. Blood Diamond (Invince-6) Satisfy - Nero (josh-1) vs. First Love - Jennifer Lopez (Surfy-8) Tongues - Joywave ft. KOPPS (Invince-4) vs. Don't - Ed Sheeran - (ry4n-5) Bang Bang - Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj (popstop-2) vs. I Got U - Duke Dumont ft. Jax Jones (Zebra-7) Hideaway - KIesza (Zebra-3) vs. Chasing the Sun - The Wanted Hilary Duff (Surfy-6)

Jax Jones (Zebra-7) Hideaway - KIesza (Zebra-3)  at me voting for all of Zebra's songs without even noticing |

Anyway, I see the brackets and there's a mistake with my songs. #2 is "Breathin'" (Extended Vocal Mix) by EDX and you listed as a Mr. Probz song. Also, #3 is "Come With Me Now" by Kongos and you listed it as the EDX song.
