Looks like Golden Earring might have a winner here.  I personally think it would be tough to get by Prince, but, you guys have surprised me before.  The 2/3 looks to be super difficult.  Do you stay true to your roots and vote The Clash?  Or do you go with the pure awesomeness that is Queen?  Happy voting!


The 1/13

1 I don't have a 'Spill some on the floor,' or a, 'mic drop,' emoji, but, that's what should go here.



The 2/3

The important thing is that Rush is out of this one.

For you, maybe.  For those who continue to enjoy Rush's music, :P to you, mirth!  (And Barthheart, too, as I know it applies there.)

The technical skill of the trio is outstanding.  The way they make music is just awesome.  If that makes me an apologist, then guilty as charged.  What do you love enough to be an apologist for?

They're hacks who make bland music. I don't care if you apologize for them or not.

Hate Prince so first pair is easy.

2/3 pairing however is really tough.
Queen is just so awesome a group... but Under Pressure is a colab with Bowie so not technically a Queen tune....
The Clash is also great... and Should I Stay or Should I Go was a personal anthem.....
:pullhair:

Deflect all you like.  You still didn't answer my question.

Their technical skill is awesome and their so precise. What you hear on the record is what you get in concert, of course Geddy's voice has changed a bit over the years.

As far as the bracket, I've always appreciated Prince's talent but not too many of his songs, so Golden Earring for me. 2/3 was just a bit harder :pullhair:  went with Queen but it was close.
