Here we go. Finally, a little challenge!

God, man.... these are all good to great. I'm going with Small Town. It's just one of those songs that continues to resonate in me, even after all these years. If it's possible, it's maybe even gotten better in my estimation as time as gone on. I just adore it.

But FUCK RVM is another heavy-hitter. And I have no problem seeing it take the victory. I'll be a tad disappointed (and surprised) if Dissident pulls this out. But it should get a few votes at least.

Small Town.

I'll vote for Reaviewmirror, but I really, really love all these songs.

Elderly Woman, though I'd pick RVM over any other song but that one. They're both just amazing

Elderly Woman - I don't care for the other two (especially Dissident).

Elderly Woman made the QFs in 2009, but generally busts out in R3.
Rearviewmirror has only made the final once, in 2008, where it lost to Immortality. It has never dropped out before R4, and has made several QFs and a coupla SFs.
Dissident has never made it past R2.

Yeah, this sounds right.

Rearviewmirror for me. Listening to these songs back to back with Ten is pretty striking. In terms of production, Ten certainly sounds of its time. There's a lot on Vs. that sounds to me as if it could have been recording yesterday. It's a spottier record than my absolute favorites of theirs, but the best on this album is as good as anything they've done.

Easy vote for Dissident. It's criminally underrated around here.

true dat


If Last Exit doesn't win this year I hope it's RVM. I've gotten back into that song in a huge way recently.

or we could just give a song like Corduroy or Immortality another win. They have never stopped being deserving

I'm pulling for Last Exit or perhaps Sleight of Hand, if I am barring the song I think is the best that's already had it's day in the sun.

It surprises me that Rearviewmirror has never won.

Other people's musical opinions don't piss me off. And SoH will still be PJ's masterpiece with or without you.
