Henry is the first to get 10 (11 actually) enemy points, so he wins a lemon meringue pie (I hate those, so I can only assume you'd love one !)
Let's see if I can expand my enemy points total :-)

152 Gorillaz feat. De La Soul - Feel Good Inc. 2005
Not an absurd guess, but not quite ;)

I'll get rid of : 951 Joni Mitchell - Free Man in Paris 1974

Not a very tight competition in figuring who my AM nemesis is, after 33 songs from my top 1000 got eliminated Henry is far ahead with 14 points when the closest competitors, Holden and Rob, have 6 points each.
16 different AMers already eliminated one of my favorite songs ! I guess it shows you can find some songs you disagree on with anyone.

My pick of the day :
241 The Stone Roses - Fools Gold 1989
