Use Somebody by Kings of Leon (13)

Poker Face by Lady Gaga (1)

This was the UK's biggest selling single of 2009, shifting over 850,000 copies, with a lot more success through downloads. After a quiet release in late 2008, it went to number 1 in March 2009. It is another electropop song from the weird/riskee (delete as you view it) American. The main idea behind the song is bisexuality and was a tribute by Gaga to her rock 'n' roll boyfriends.

Thank you Sam!

 

So, in the Grand Final, Lady Gaga's Poker Face won narrowly with a 4-3 victory.

 

And in the 3rd/4th Play-off, Lady Gaga triumphed again, with Just Dance securing a 5-2 victory.

 

A big thanks to all those who voted. And until the next "It's A Knockout" thread, which will continue the Band's search for its Dream Band, keep listening! ;)

And for amusements sake, CNN said this morning that Kings of Leon actually won out I think....or maybe i miread...it's hard to read while running on the elliptical!
