In match 28, Poor Boy (The Greenwood) struck it rich and moves on in the never-ending tournament.
For match 29, Mama (or Momma) from ELO 2, battles with Telephone Line, from A New World Record.
REMEMBER TO VOTE IN THE POLL OR YOUR VOTE WON'T COUNT

'Momma' is a good one, but unnecessary long. I maybe like the Carl Wayne a bit more than the official one. But the other one is a classic and deservedly so. I suspect this is going to be a quick one.

I should have included the Carl Wayne version, too. In cases like this, you can vote for whatever version you want. Like with Heaven Only Knows, Secret Lives, various remixed or stripped down versions etc....you're still just voting for the song, no matter which version you prefer. The only exception is Xanadu, where I'm including both the original and the Jeff solo version, since they're really two different songs. I mean, I guess you could say that about the Carl Wayne version of Mama, too....but yea, its whatever.

'Telephone Line' is always going to get my vote unless the other track is exceptionally exceptional.

Song that got me into ELO in the first place, can't ignore the ringing and that plaintive "hello?...."

Feeling a bit sorry for Momma now, I wonder who the single vote was from?

I understand that compromises had to be done in order to get down to even 256 songs. Besides Xanadu, I believe there were also two versions of Do Ya and Caught In A Trap/In For The Kill in your list.
