With the exception of In Bloom, the other three songs were either tied, or seperated by (essentially) one vote.  That all makes me very happy.  Now we have to deal with the consequences.  With all the critical reverence for Nirvana, I can never be sure how well loved they are by regular folks.  I expect they should blow Pantera out of the water.  And yet, Walk is such a killer tune.  Let's see where this one goes.  The 2/3 is much easier for me.  Both great songs on their release.  Both still played on the radio today.  Only one worthy of moving forward.  I'll let you vote which one ;)


The 1/5





The 2/3



And the One Song to Rule Them All is Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones

My favorite Nirvana tune vs a 'meh' Pantera tune (there are other Pantera songs I prefer by a lot) = easy choice

a 'meh' Alice in Chains tune (there are other AIC songs - on that album! - I prefer by a lot) vs the shittiest song Pearl Jam ever recorded = easy choice

Thanks for dropping by and giving your opinion, Brant.  Very insightful.  I wish I had that kind of input when I was putting these together.  Might have made a difference.  Feel free to pop back in and leave some more of your winning comments  O0

LMAO!


And might it be possible for whoever is picking and choosing what they vote rather than voting for each one to maybe vote for each one?  Please?

Do you mean some on is skipping matchups or that they are picking everything they like even if it's both of the matchup choices?

As of this minute, six people have voted but one matchup only has five votes total, so someone opted to vote in one matchup and skip the other.

Thanks, Steelie.  That's exactly it.  Sorry my sentence gave away absolutely nothing of the facts of the problem.

How can you tell? Or is seeing how we vote one of the double-Secret mod level-ups?

Jeremy was one of my favorite tunes from Pearl Jam.

Ditto. And "Down in a Hole" is one of my favorite AiC songs. Guess we got no class, you and I  ::)
