Well it looks like I again have no idea what I am doing.  The 1 and 2 seeds are both gone.  And I agonized about even including Californication.  I have three other RHCP songs I could have used, but, picked that one as the one most would be familiar with.  Slide was my 2 based on how well they did in the '98 Bracket.  That'll teach me :(

Interested to see how things turn out here.  Still have a good mix of what made '99, '99.  So, have at!


The 8/16





The 4/5





The 3/6





The 10/15



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

I am abstaining from the 8-16 on account of both of those songs suck complete ass

I really like the song American Woman  :P LOL.

I'm glad Aguilera kicked Britney out of this bracket. She's a better singer imo  :)

Yeah, but the Britney video is super iconic.  AND shot in one of the hallways of the school used in the movie, 'Grease.'

I have nothing against the Britney video. And I know that was an iconic moment in pop culture, and a breakthrough song for her, that rocketed her into super stardom. And, I actually like the song. But it was up against Christina Aguilera, who I think just has a much better vocal range than Britney.

And I didn't know it was the same school from Grease! That's a cool bit of pop trivia to know, thanks dude  O0

Aguilera has way more singing skills that Spears... like infinitely more skills... Spears is a hack comparatively.

I don't like either of their styles but you have to recognize skill when you see it.

How can you say that ?   I don't think anybody has ever heard Spears sing live so how can they judge her skills ..

I agree that X-tina has the skills.  Britney has the school girl outfit ;)
