Decades Feeder Bracket - 1992 Round of 16

[MetalDog]

First, I am super sorry it's taken so long to get this week's Bracket up for 1992.  Been on vacation and then the catch up at work from when you are on vacation.  Second, 1992 was a super weak year for music.  I had to import 5 songs from albums released in 1991 (the songs I used were released as singles in '92) in order to have 16 songs for the bracket.  Third, while I was doing the research, I saw albums by The Cure, Public Image, Ltd. and others of their ilk released in 1992.  I admit to having no knowledge or liking for that genre.  So, if there was something on them that you considered essential and much better choices than some I chose, I apologize.  And I will be glad to vote in YOUR bracket when you put it up.  In the meantime, happy voting and thank you so much for continuing to come along on this journey with me!

So, if there was something on them that you considered essential and much better choices than some I chose, I apologize.

Off the top of my head...

• Pull Me Under, Dream Theater
• Midlife Crisis or Be Aggressive, Faith No More
• Tennessee, Arrested Development
• Trigger Cut, Pavement
• anything from Blues for the Red Sun, Kyuss
• Twisterella or Leave Them All Behind, Ride
• Winter Song, Screaming Trees
• Somebody to Shove, Soul Asylum
• The entire goddamn Singles Soundtrack

never mind you've got the wrong songs from

• U2 - should've gone with One over Even Better Than The Real Thing
• White Zombie - Black Sunshine is a much better tune
• Pearl Jam - if "Jeremy" is your only choice, you don't put anything on there, but you had 2 songs from the "Singles" soundtrack you could've used, plus the original B-side release of Yellow Ledbetter in 1992
• Stone Temple Pilots - Plush was the bigger hit; Wicked Garden is the better tune, Sex Type Thing made them famous
• GNR - if you're going to cheat and pull singles released in '92 from albums in '91, then you pull Yesterdays instead of Knockin' on Heaven's Door

(as a side note, I would've put different songs from Megadeth, Black Crowes, and Alice in Chains on there, but your choices are at least defensible; slight bonus for the more under-rated Blind Melon tune that no one remembers)

If you're going to use a quote, maybe you should use the whole quote ;)

So, if there was something on them that you considered essential and much better choices than some I chose, I apologize.  And I will be glad to vote in YOUR bracket when you put it up.

And some of you are doing it again.  PLEASE, if you are going to vote, vote for all of them.  Don't just pick and choose.

I'm a big fan of selective editing.  I'm going to be running for office soon, too


I'm also not the one who selectively edited out 5-8 better songs from my top 16!

[MetalDog]

Even with as much musical knowledge and experience as I have, I still don't know but a tiny fraction of all the music out there.  And of the music I do know, I detest some of it, like Guns N Roses.

and if you're going for '91 album / '92 single....

I don't really care about the polls. I read these things for the Brant/MD bitch-slapping.

All I can say is I knew every single song Dawg choose and maybe half of what Brant posted. Brant, you may be a wine connoisseur hanging out with a beer crowd here. If I googled your list, I'm sure I would recognize some of your choices but you may be preaching to the wrong choir.

[bobarossa]

I hardly ever listened to any of those songs.  Guess I'm staying out of this one.

Doesn't excuse leaving off the entire goddamn Singles soundtrack!

Kinda gotta agree with that.

Is it too early for a Pabst Blue Ribbon?   8)

[mirth]

I hope not. I'm on my third.
