I would rather do a two hour Rock Around Barack marathon instead of a twenty minute Sweet Lew one.
That’s a horrible opinion, Anders.
Just never had any love for Sweet Lew. Of the album songs (incl. Lost Dogs) it might be the worst ever. Don't like Rock Around Barack either.
Have you ever heard the demo version? I thought the composition of the song shined through more on that one and I appreciated the song more after listening to it.
Not sure. I've heard so much PJ that I've forgotten some of it.

To be fair though, I didn't hate the song at first.

It’s kinda groovy.
Ugh, you made me listen to it. So bad.

I mean, yeah. It’s terrible. But it’s 10,000 times better than Barack.

It’s the redeeming factor of the song.

The vocals/lyrics are hideous.

I wouldn’t argue with you on that, though I find the delivery of the vocals on CDM to be passable. The lyrics are poop.

We keep them open until someone makes a second account and breaks the tie.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

That part requires critical thought and reading through really long lists.

Stip, instead of writing poll inactive, but still allowing votes to be cast, could you just lock the thread instead?
