evil little goat is a non song. Education hasn't aged as well as I'd like, but it's still a quality song.

I really like Sweet Lew, like a lot. It's absurd fun. Education is the better song by orders of magnitude, but I'll give sweet lew some love so it doesn't get shut out.

Evil Little Goat is better than Sweet Lew

Education is a corny song. It sounds like something from a Steven Sondheim musical. I'm voting Sweet Lew because fuck you Education, that's why.

Likewise. I like the rough take version too from Binaural Deluxe.

Education, easily.

Education's best was a 3rd round loss against You Are in 2015.
The other two are R1'ers.

Education, though it's one of those songs, like Undone from the last round, that I can't get too excited about. There's nothing wrong with it in terms of the songwriting per se, like songs I could point to on the last few records. But there's also nothing for me that really stands out.

I actually really genuinely enjoy all three of these songs for different reasons (and obviously on different levels). I'm voting for Education. But I won't cry if it somehow manages to lose out to these others. It won't. But if it did.

Bruce Lee and kung fu.
Sweet Lew I'm vote number 2.

I think "Education" is a great pop song, effectively distilling some of "Binaural"'s more complex political tendencies into a two minute singalong. It was my favorite of those outtakes when they first made the rounds. It's not anymore, but I'm still very fond of it.

I don't find "Sweet Lew" charming, funny, etc. at all and "Evil Little Goat" is a bunch of nothing.

Man, I love Evil Little Goat so much.

It's the closest PJ ever came to a Melvins song.

My knowledge of the Melvins' work is embarrassingly light.
