Bracket style. Sorry friend.
Everyone can nominate like 10 songs and then we'll make a huge bracket? Sounds fun

There aren't going to be teams, pay attention!

Mostly albums, but one or two are from soundtracks, and I think maybe some of the older ones might be public domain by now? They're all out there to Google so if you need to know about where a specific one came from, it should be easy to find. I tried not to add any made up songs.

How well do you think "(Untitled Pearl Jam demo)" would fare in this lineup?

No. I mean how was this list compiled? You just came up with it on your own?
