Okay, I feel pretty good about Daughter advancing. This and Release/All or None are the matches where I have an overwhelming favorite.

Off He Goes by a wide margin. Daughter has never been a favorite.

A grown ass man singing "Dont call me daughter" in his lowest baritone has always struck me as kinda funny.

I can't argue that Daughter is a pretty great song, but it fatigued pretty quickly for me in terms of re-playability.

Off He Goes gets a lot of regular play, even after all these years.

"Off He Goes" by a long shot. I love "Daughter" but really, it's one verse and a bunch of repeated choruses--not much of a composition. It gets a few points for all the great improvisation it's given rise to over the years but "Off He Goes" is such the superior piece of songwriting I can't bring myself to care.

Daughter due to Dave A. I really like both songs but the drumming in Daughter is a delight.

I'd only vote for Daughter over OHG... if Black/Red/Yellow was the tag, complete with a live Rodman voicemail cameo.

Daughter is a great song that the band beat into the ground. Killed it for me. Off He Goes is also one of the band's best lyrics. Given how the rest of the votes are going, I'll still be surprised if Daughter doesn't win this round.

Off He Goes is bottom of the barrel.
