Falling Away With You - Muse

Ya, but that's not really random. It's part of the theme of the video.

I was gonna write this in the elimination thread but I figured this warrants it's own discussion. I can't stand I, the Throw Away. I've determined it to be one of 4 songs that I skip almost every time, with the others being The Inescapable Us, NAFL (rooms), and Every Name Is My Name. Though I suppose Girl ... Firebird and Not Safer Than a Bank are skipped as well, but they're not really songs anyway. So yeah, I, the Throw Away and The Inescapable Us are my picks for way overrated. What do you think?

Round 2 AB results! (The blowout round) 1)House of Smoke and Mirrors vs. Symbolistic White Walls 14-9 2)The Fine Art of Falling Apart vs. My Out of Style is Coming Back 20-3 3)Suburbia vs. Jenni's Song 20-3 4)Near Fantastica vs. Double Life 22-1 5)Flashdance II vs. The War is Over 20-3 6)Put Out Your Lights vs. Weapon 0-23 7)Fought To Fight It vs. Tripoli 0-23 8)On Nights Like Tonight vs. Indestructible 16-7 9)Born Losers vs. I Am Not Safer Than a Bank 23-0 Three shutouts must be some kind of record, almost had four until Double Life got a vote near the end. Round 2 CD 1) Empty Road vs. The Fall of Man - Empty Road beat So Long Mrs. Smith 23-2 - The Fall of Man knocked out Everything is Automatic 12-10 - MY VOTE - The Fall of Man 2) I Miss New Wave vs. Volcanoes - I Miss New Wave beat Breath of a Nation 20-2 - Volcanoes beat Little Terror 16-9 - MY VOTE - Volcanoes 3) Great Whales of the Sea vs. Alabama Motel Room - Great Whales of the Sea defeated Moon Over Marin 22-3 - Alabama Motel Room beat Bad Pennies 15-6 - MY VOTE - Great Whales of the Sea 4) A Silent Army In the Trees vs. Black Helicopter (Massey Hall) - A Silent Army In the Trees defeated its acoustic self 22-3 - Black Helicopter (Massey Hall) beat out the album version and acoustic version in a three way battle with 15 out of 21 voting it in first place - MY VOTE - Black Helicopter (Massey Hall) (tough choice, if it was album Black Helicopter Silent Army would have my vote for sure) 5) Last Parade vs. Going All the Way - Last Parade beat Buffalo Seven 21-4 - Going All the Way defeated Oh Be Joyful 18-7 - MY VOTE - Last Parade 6) Sort of a Protest Song vs. 21st Century Living - Sort of a Protest Song defeated Under the Influence 21-4 - 21st Century Living knocked out I, the Throw Away 16-6 - MY VOTE - I'll miss you 21st Century Living, but Sort of a Protest Song has to be my choice 7) We're So Heavy vs. Anti-pop - We're So Heavy defeated Strangest One of All 18-4 - Anti-pop knocked out Native Son 16-6 - MY VOTE - We're So Heavy 8) Single Explosion vs. Load Me Up - Single Explosion beat She's In It For the Money 18-4 - Load Me Up defeated Middle Class Gangsters 19-6 - MY VOTE - Single Explosion 9) While We Were Hunting Rabbits vs. Truffle Pigs - While We Were Hunting Rabbits defeated All Together 20-5 - Truffle Pigs beat Truffle Pigs (rooms) 17-5 - MY VOTE - I'm gonna take the underdog Truffle Pigs Hopefully this round is a little tougher, it was for me anyways.

Right Where It Belongs - Nine Inch Nails

Bleed Together - Soundgarden

Let Down - Radiohead

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

Happy Birthday! ;) Everything In Its Right Place - Radiohead

Hmmm, I really thought Fought to Fight It would get some love, but it has yet to receive a vote.

Glad it worked out for you. I've never used Total Recorder I have AVG Audio Editor.

Hot In Herre - Nelly (heard this song for the first time in years the other day, still sucks)

Like a Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan

I had the same problem until I found something on a message board somewhere and it's an easy fix. In the classic menu in your Control Panel, find "Sound." Once that pops up, click the "recording" tab and then right click inside the window and check the "show disabled devices" box and stereo mix should show up. Then all you have to do is right click on it and enable it and then stereo mix should show up as an option in whatever recording software you are using.

Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana

Any Colour You Like - Pink Floyd

Cry Freedom - Dave Matthews Band (one of my absolute favourite songs)
