Better lyrics, arguably a better a performance and a more singular composition

Red Mosquito. I love Dance but Red Mosquito is just awesome. I am sure it goes down here since Dance will likely win this pre-champions tournament tournament.

that would still feel like an upset to me if it happened. To be fair, I'm not sure Dance has faced a true A-list 'it might win the tournament' opponent yet, in either year. Abnorman?

the newness and excitement of Dance has worn off but if i actually sit and listen - I think its firmly settled into a top tier PJ song.

RM just doesnt have the emotional weight im looking for and its never hit a super high note for me. Though, still fantastic song.

easy choice on Dance. Join the club, ruddo.

think about the times we've texted with ruddo about our love of DOTC, and he's not said a word. kind of makes you wonder... If I was hanging with ruddo and I had food in my teeth, i bet he wouldn't even tell me.

his silence feels rather violent, i agree.

DotC is easily a top ten PJ song for me. But so is RM. I love it. And not sure what strat means, there’s plenty of emotional weight in it.

Dance has lost to In My Tree, which doesn't bode well for it going forward.

Dance has beaten:
Severed Hand
Let It Ride
Nothingman
All Those Yesterdays
1/2 Full
Sad

Of those, Severed Hand, All Those Yesterdays and Nothingman have made 1 top 16, 1/2 Full and Let it Ride have never made it past round 2. Sad is probably the heaviest hitter, with two top 16 appearances, and several top 32 finishes.

On paper, Red Mosquito was the favourite going into this match, with a quarter final appearance, and wins against Animal, Light Years, No Way and Sleight of Hand.
