Well, this doesn't even come close to 80 minutes but it's a start. in no particular order... Whispering in the Dark Waiting for the Great Destruction Parable The Ocean Last of the Ghetto Astronauts Dancing Invisible You Are Here Break in the Rhythm Euphony Push Mercy Misses You Casual Walks Brand New Tune

Definitely my favourite Matt Good album, and probably my favourite album from anyone. Every song is amazing, the exceptions being Anti-Pop which is only okay and I, the Throw Away which I have never liked. Advertising is my favourite song, but that changes every so often.

Hmmm, after reading this I think I'll have to check it out.

Lost in Hollywood - System of a Down

My list would have at least 5 Black Eyed Peas songs in the top 10 worst, and 3 Doors down has many songs far worse than Kryptonite.

yes Round 1 was selected randomly and this ultimately determines much of what happens before we even begin voting. Unless we rank all 147 songs involved beforehand this is really the only logical way to approach this. That is also why have a vote back after every round so that songs such as Failing the Rorschach Test, which I'm sure many would agree was unfairly matched against Weapon in round 1, still has a chance to earn a top 20 ranking and could even win it all. check the NF store under +jackpillowhead. It was a demo Matt recorded with Ryan Dahle.

Round 2 GH results... Since there was some technical issues on Sunday and some users were complaining about missing posts I won't post results until the end of this round which will be on the morning of Monday December 21st. A few votes were close and I'd like to make sure everyone's votes are counted. If you wanted to add a vote for that round, please just add it into this thread as the other one will likely be locked. The vote back for round 2 (round 2.5) will be held later as we cannot start it until the outcome of the last round is finalized. Round 3 Group A 1) Near Fantastica vs. The Fall of Man Near Fantastica defeated: - Near Fantastica (HOSAM) 17-2 - Double Life 21-1 The Fall of Man defeated: - Everything is Automatic 12-10 - Empty Road 15-9 - MY VOTE - Near Fantastica 2) Born Losers vs. We're So Heavy Born Losers defeated: - Raygun 13-4 - I Am Not Safer Than a Bank 22-0 We're So Heavy defeated: - Strangest One of All 18-4 - Anti-Pop 14-10 - MY VOTE - We're So Heavy 3) The Fine Art of Falling Apart vs. I Miss New Wave The Fine Art of Falling Apart defeated - Carmelina 18-1 - My Out of Style is Coming Back 19-3 I Miss New Wave defeated - Breath of a Nation 20-2 - Volcanoes 12-12 - MY VOTE - The Fine Art of Falling Apart (pretty close, but I'm still angry Volcanoes lost in such horrible fashion) 4) Flashdance II vs. While We Were Hunting Rabbits Flashdance II defeated: - Comfortable Criminals 15-2 - The War is Over 20-2 While We Were Hunting Rabbits defeated: - All Together 20-5 - Truffle Pigs 15-9 - MY VOTE - I hate voting against Flashdance II, but I have to vote for Rabbits 5) Suburbia vs. On Nights Like Tonight Suburbia defeated: - Agoraphobe 17-2 - Jenni's Song 19-3 On Nights Like Tonight defeated: - Look Happy, It's the End of the World 13-4 - Indestructible 16-6 - MY VOTE - Suburbia (love Nights though) 6) Sort of Protest Song vs. Last Parade Sort of a Protest Song defeated: - Under the Influence 21-4 - 21st Century Living 21-3 Last Parade defeated: - Buffalo Seven 21-4 - Going All the Way 15-9 - MY VOTE - Sort of a Protest Song Voting for this round will end the morning of Monday December 21st.
