I Got ID it is. One of the few songs that I think the studio version is vastly superior than live.

Easily the most difficult match-up for me so far. It's a crime that both of these songs aren't going deep into the tournament. Both are two of the best things this band has done, I think.
But, after much deliberation, I voted for the bug.

RM is a great song, and decent message board. i love the slide licks, its not really something they do often (or ever?), and the outro is beautiful. but i got shit really does it for me. the studio version is awesome and kinda creepy, but for me it doesnt get any better than when they played this at soldier field in 95. man, what a show that was. this song was super intense that night.

How so? These are about as equal as it gets for me. I went with RM today. But, a different day I could've gone the other way. Both outstanding songs.

I don't think RM has ever advanced that far in one of these things. I got shit won one year and has always done pretty well.

If two Mopey Mumble-Matildas stand up and sing "I fight back in my mind! It never lets me be right. I've got memories and a various collection of undefined other stuff I will henceforth refer to as shit because it really sounds like my life is hard if I do it that way! So much, it don't show (except for when I'm belting it out to a bunch of strangers, lol)..." but the second one mumbles something afterwards about the song not being autobiographical, both Mopeys are still drama queening the shit out of their subject matter and both are still saved primarily because Neil Fucking Young.

Went with RM. I like funky PJ almost without exception.

As far as I'm concerned, Black is absolutely the odd one out there. The other four were all released within a twelve month span.
