Bonus! 2011-Part 1

It’s the triumphant return of everyone’s favorite guessing game! In case your memory needs a refresher on how to play, here are the rules:
You will be given 3 songs from 2011 that did not make the Top 100. Your job is to identify (1) which one just missed out on being included in the upper 100, (2) which one is languishing somewhere in the 500s, and (3) which one falls somewhere in between. We’ll begin with an easy round.

Answer time! “For You” is scraping the bottom of the list, “Love Me Like Your Money” landed at #169, and “San Aggelos S'agapisa” was actually #101, meaning it just missed the final cut. The Cypriot entry grows on you the more you hear it, while “For You” continues to baffle, no matter how many times your captor plays it in an attempt to extract sensitive information from you.
