Round 3 Round Up
Biggest nail-biter: For the first 5 days or so it was Poll 6, Everybody Loves You Now vs My Life, which tied several times and flipped more than once. Then on the last day Poll 10, Don't Ask Me Why vs Piano Man got extremely close.
Biggest upset: Poll 10, Don't Ask Me Why vs Piano Man! But honorable mention to Poll 14, We Didn't Start the Fire vs Prelude/Angry Young Man Poll 16, Uptown Girl vs Summer, Highland Falls.
Widest margin: Poll 15, Leningrad vs Vienna, with a margin of 20% to 80%.
Closest margin: Poll 10, Don't Ask Me Why vs Piano Man, with a margin of 51.3% to 48.7%.
Most votes: Poll 6, Everybody Loves You Now vs My Life, with 107 votes!
Least votes: Poll 8, The Ballad of Billy the Kid vs Running On Ice, with 44 votes.
Dark horse winners: Summer, Highland Falls, Everybody Loves You Now, Prelude/Angry Young Man, and Don't Ask Me Why.
What a round! Huge upsets eliminated Piano Man, Uptown Girl, My Life, We Didn't Start the Fire, and Tell Her About It. The latter two eliminations mean none of Billy Joel's three number 1 hits will be advancing to the next round (It's Still Rock and Roll to Me was eliminated in round 2.) All remaining songs are from Billy Joel's 12 studio albums, but 4 albums were eliminated entirely as well. Only 8 albums are represented among the winners: Cold Spring Harbor, Piano Man, Turnstiles, The Stranger, 52nd Street, Glass Houses, The Nylon Curtain, and River of Dreams.

Round 4 opens at midnight!
