I'm trying really hard to come up with tough decisions for everyone.  Makes it more fun in the end.

One of you nice folks has voted in the sentences describing which matchup it is instead of for a song.  Each of those votes will be counted towards the higher seeded song in the matchups below the sentence.

Sorry MD, but this bracket is crud.  I've only heard of 5 of these songs, and four of them are against each other.  I liked your fake one better. And how did Billy Joel not back it into this bracket.  ON second thought, We Didn't Start the Fire came out in '89.

Funny thing is, I've heard every song on here and thought they were all pretty popular in their time of release.  And honestly, I am weak in a few genres.  I'm not a big Smiths/Depeche Mode/Cure/Morrissey/Joy Division kind of guy.  Not a huge grunge fan either.  Sorry you didn't like this one.  I'll call 1990 and ask them to release better music in the future ;)

you totally forgot to get The Connells into there somewhere

Funny that you have Thunderstruck as the #1 seed.  I'd never even put it in my bracket.  It's probably the one AC/DC song I truly hate.

Yeah, Thunderstruck is one of the weaker popular AC/DC tunes out there. But I hate Faith No More so there you go....

Steelgrave

Blasphemy


But to each his or her own. Angel Dust is one of top albums from the 90's.

74-75 was an awesome tune by those guys.

Still learning the audience.  I wouldn't have put Thunderstruck in there at all as I have an aversion to most things AC/DC.  But they play the s*it out of it on the radio, so....
