I like "Sorrow" a lot. I like that it's about the Book of Job, the uplifting nature of the lyrics, the harmonies in the chorus, and the way the guitar solo kicks in. Like a lot of Bad Religion stuff, it's pretty much a folk song disguised under power chords and distortion. I also dig that those guys were all considerably older than everybody else in this tournament when this came out, so watching a bunch of punk rock dads rock out in the music video is a nice change.

Both of these are pretty good. Tough choice.

"Sorrow"s verses remind me a little bit of Billy Joel's "Shes Always a Woman", which can only mean certain victory in my books.

Is this the only Bad Religion song in the tourney?

Yes

Was it an issue of relative popularity of their songs compared to others in the tourney, or that they were usually more punk than pop punk?

I think it's their most popular and poppiest single from that era. "American Jesus" would've also worked but it came out before our 1994 starting date.

A Walk and Infected should’ve made the cut

Yeah definitely "Infected", which I didn't even think of. "A Walk" maybe... anyway, thanks for nominating them in our Suggestions thread that was open for like a month, Jammer

To be fair, Bad Religion isn’t what comes to mind when I hear pop punk.
