And one can only marvel at the spectacle of man of the hour, a song that made every single person here cry the first time they heard it, actually losing to pearl jam's finest example of onomatopoeia - a song that sounds like it's taking the shit promised by the title

6/8, and I echo Stip's MOTH/Evac sentiments.

I was 2/8


Red Mosquito beating No Way was a surprise

Hard to Imagine beating porch was nonsense. As was Smile beating State of Love and Trust



My only consolation is the almost certain knowledge that I'll enjoy pearl jam's next album more than the rest of you fuckers. I can't wait to claim my prize three years from now!

quite a few tough matches this quarterfinal.


We're seeing the benefits of taking out all the past winners. And since they'll all go up against each other in the finals, and we haven't been talking about them for a month, they should feel fresh.

this is a solid format, methinks.

6/8 again. HtI shouldn't have taken Porch, but I'm OK with Not For You taking Elderly Woman.
