Looking like a Setting Sun vs Waiting For Stevie final, and I find that odd. There are much better songs on the album to my ears.

To me it's perfect. These are far and away my two favorites.

They are both decent four star songs.

Waiting For Stevie has a bit of a Pearl Jam trying to do early Pearl Jam vibe going on.

Setting Sun is a bit boring compared to the top songs on the album.

Setting Sun is probably my favourite on the album, but Wreckage is up there, and Upper Hand is really growing on me.

There were a lot of really close matchups because there are a lot of really great songs... there are about 7 songs that could win this bracket and I would still be happy with the result

I'd like to see where some of the other DM songs stack up against the other bracket winners. Not just Setting Sun or WFS. Upper Hand, Wreckage, Scared of Fear, R/R would all take out some strong tracks from the past PJ catalog, imo
