So many MMA highlights videos have been ruined over the past decade because of the shittery that is 'Bodies'. It's equal parts hilarious and sad. How many singers have they had, and how many of them have died of cardiac arrest?

'Roots' is the better song, and it gets my vote.

Look, "Roots" is probably the better song, but how many bird videos did it inspire?

RBR is my favorite song in the whole tournament, and one of my favorite songs of all time. Heavy as fuck, groovy as hell, catchy as shit, and it has my favorite vocal performance from one of my favorite vocalists. I love everything about it. It is a perfect piece of music.

Sepultura is fucking awesome and fuck everyone voting for the meme song over them.

Not sure I’d call Roots a nu metal album entirely though, they have some very interesting traditional Brazilian music elements on there though.

Maybe “Lookaway” featuring Jon Davis and Mike Patton should have been in the tourney.

Bodies is terrible. But, like Down With The Sickness, it is one of those songs I will always associate with this excremental era of music. It gets my vote.

Yeah this is upsetting. I have a feeling these meme voters aren’t even listening to the Sepultura song. :shake:

Oh the Sepultura song is better, but Bodies basically represented this generation of songs, so I have to take that impact into consideration

If you were rocking No Code and not Roots in 1996 you were doing it wrong.

One guy screams Let The Bodies Hit The Floor over and over and the other guy screams Roots Bloody Roots over and over. How will I choose?

"Bodies" is idiotic -- nu-metal at its lunkheaded, ooh-isn't-this-dark worst. This is the first I've heard of the other song but...easy vote.

Bodies: Just all around boring and bad. A decent attempt at 'fun' though, I guess.

Roots Bloody Roots: Those Inuits were definitely listening to a different song for those dance moves.

Roots gets my vote cause it's more interesting.

Godhead is actually an obscure nu metal band mostly known for a horrible Beatles cover.

Not to be confused with godheadSilo, a legitimately good sludge metal band.

Vote for RBR, but it's actually the worst (and least interesting) song on Roots.

Apparently the military really likes it. Do you hate our military men and women who died for your freedoms?

I picture Burt listening to bodies during particularly intense times of drawing, such as big snakes trying to eat mice in Scurry.
