Voting for All or None but no shame in losing to Go.

I voted for All or None, but I'm not disappointed Go is winning handily, its pretty great. All or None just sounds so great on that record.

Sorry All or None. You're nice and all, but I get all wet over Go and you just don't turn me on the same way.

All or None is a great, great song. It probably has my favorite solo Mike's ever done on a record, Ed's vocals and lyrics are affecting, and the chord progression is simultaneously simple and surprising (and fun to play).
But Go is just a battering ram of a song. It makes you want to run head on into brick walls and also makes you think you might actually break through. There's this specific scream Ed does at about 1:57 on the studio recording that scares the shit out of me, and that break in the song (right after Mike's solo) is one of the most intense moments the band pulls off in concert.
