R1: My Sacrifice vs. Chop Suey!

[LoathedVermin72]

Creed - "My Sacrifice"


System of a Down - "Chop Suey!"

[E.H. Ruddock]

Man I fucking love Chop Suey. Easy vote

[Ello Sailor]

I think a Toxicity track is going take out the whole thing.

[LoathedVermin72]

lol. CS obv

[Jorge]

"My Sacrifice" is one of the funniest music videos in this entire fucking tournament

[Jorge]

I'll say this: I think the melody to "My Sacrifice" is very nice. It's always had a kind of 90s-Disney-animated-movie feel, to my ears. Like something that Hercules would sing or whatever. With different instrumentation (AND LYRICS) I think I could actually like it. But yeah, as it stands, it is a bad song, and "Chop Suey" is legitimately great.

If you haven't seen this, it goes into great detail on everything going on in the "Chop Suey" composition, arrangement and recording

[Ello Sailor]

That guy's channel is great! He belongs in the 'Videos About Music (Not Music Videos)' thread.

go to :50 for a nautical take on the "sad guy ignoring hot girl" motif

[EJ]

Scott Stapp's ability to extend his lower jaw past normal human limits is pretty impressive.

My Sacrifice: Haha to another example of the singer rejecting a hot woman. What a stupid high budget video. Waste of money. I get why the song was popular. It's catchy. But goddamn I hate that voice. 2:10.

I don't even have to listen to Chop Suey again. Great song, duh.

[Jammer XCI]

Seriously?

Chop Suey all day every day.

[Kevin Davis]

This is probably the first time I've heard "Chop Suey" in 15 years -- holy crap, what a great song. That last chorus is spine-chilling.

[i got bugs]

I was gonna vote for creed for shits n giggles

Shutout #2

[BurtReynolds]

I can't even joke about liking that Creed shit more than Chop Suey.

[BurtReynolds]

Should have used the real version:

[Jammer XCI]

Much better than the poor bird singing "Bodies", that should be considered animal abuse.

[LoathedVermin72]

Should have used the real version:

oh my god

[LoathedVermin72]

Holy fucking shit, that My Sacrifice music video is something

[Jorge]

My favorite part is when Scott Stapp pulls someone out from under the water and... it's another Scott Stapp!!!

[BurtReynolds]

What is his sacrifice? I dont get it. The song makes no sense.
