1971 was a great year in music. There are going to be lots of tough choices in this bracket!
Glad to hear it :)
Now we're rocking!
How does this work?
This one was pretty easy, since I basically can't stand one of each of the pairs.
Yep, there were some tough matchups this bracket. Just cannot vote against Tina's legs though. Been in love with them for too many years to turn my back on them now. :dreamer:
Just voted.

I can. I never liked that song.
BTW, interesting choice of Can't You Hear Me Knocking over Brown Sugar.
A truly bizarre set of choices

'Can't You Hear Me Knocking,' has one of the meanest, nastiest, low down dirtiest, guitar licks of all time. 'Brown Sugar,' does not.

Thanks for jumping in, Gus! Hope you stay for the rest of the ride. Now we gotta work on getting Toonces in here. We've already had one Bon Jovi song not win.
Boy, you guys totally f'ed up your voting in the first round of that one...
In what way?
Yeah, it mirrors my picks pretty closely so it can't be all bad...
Ditto. It's the first time every song I voted for won, so you can hold me personally responsible for your unhappiness, ha! :peace:

In what way?
there's at least 4 songs that made it through that I can't stand...
3 of the ones I voted for lost, so, I feel your pain.

On some of the other brackets, I've had some of my very favorite songs lose - songs that I thought were the best of the best of the best.
That's the way it goes. It'd be sort of boring if only my songs won.
Awesome way to look at it, trailrunner!
