Just a Girl vs. Undone vs. Someday at Christmas

Three songs enter. One song leaves.

Voting ends 3/6

Just a Girl is a silly song, and I didn't find it convincing back in the day, but it is endearingly earnest with age. Not worth voting for though.

Someday at Christmas is exceptional for an X-mas single, and I hate voting against it, but Undone is one of my favorite pearl jam songs, period.

Undone. Girl hasn't aged well with me.

Undone

Undone. Also, Someday at Christmas is a cover. Are there supposed to be covers in this tourney?

Undone is great, but Someday is greater.

Easy vote for Just a Girl for me here.

"Someday at Christmas" is just the best.

Soundboard is close enough

Part of me wants to vote for Someday at Christmas, but Undone is almost just as good and it's not a cover.

I usually don't like voting for covers, but I'm finding myself drawn towards a few of them in these rounds, including Someday at Christmas. I absolutely love this song and they do justice to it. Maybe I'm a bit warmer to it because it's a bit more outside the band's wheelhouse than their 843rd Who cover, and it feels fresher.

I like Undone, but it's also been a middle-of-the-pack song to me. There's nothing egregious about it, but it just kind of defines 'average' for this band.

Someday at Christmas is the best song listed here. But it's a cover. And I don't vote for covers. So, Undone it is!

Just a Girl and Someday haven't made it past R1.
Undone has had a few moments - getting to R3 of the 00's section of 2010's tourney, and a coupla R2 placements.

Huh? Why the strict rule?

Listening to 'Just A Girl' on the Lost Dogs Rescue disc was a really pleasant "rediscovery" for me, so that's my vote here.

Undone was the first song from LD that caught my attention, its soo good.
