Musical Post-March Madness



With 256 songs, it has taken a while to whittle the field down. Now there are 32 songs remaining, competing head to head.

Here are the latest match-ups:
TLC "Creep"

The lovely ladies from Atlanta made it this far by defeating "Joy" by Teddy Pendergrass, "California love" by 2Pac, and "Love overboard" by Gladys Knight. This round they face a powerhouse.

Freddie Jackson has several songs included in the 256 song pool, and 1990's "Love me down" is up now.

Two R&B stalwarts face off next, Keith Sweat's 1996 jam "Nobody", who defeated Janet Jackson's "Control" in round one before taking down Shai's If I ever fall in love" and R.Kelly's "You remind me of something".

Keith's opponent is the late R&B legend Luther Vandross with his 1986 smash "Stop to love".
