Again, how many of the worst songs of all time are going to be in this?

I'm not a big fan of either song. They're both about on par with each other. And Ed's gonna get crushed in this match. It's a throw away vote. Because no harm, ya know?

this "throw the poor guy a bone" mentality is the only possible reason I can envision for Ed Sheeran's success in general

I could have sworn that 5th Dimension song was in Almost Famous at one point.

I had never heard that particular Ed Sheeran song before and really felt better before that happened though I had never really heard any of his tunes before this tournament and am beginning to sour to the whole idea a tad.

Aquarius is such a weird ass song, but LTSI is actually pretty good.

Twice now that I've voted for Aquarius, not out of any fondness for the song, but due to how much I hate its competitors. Though it does have the 40 Year Old Virgin association going for it.

Also, it is used masterfully in an episode of Devs. I'm gonna change my vote just because of that.
