looking over this poll again. the easiest poll in round 1 is going to be insanely hard and painful in every subsequent round.

On the upside, you get to pour scorn on those who make different choices than you!
What a rabidly mad dog mental thing to say. Timmy, take Old Yeller round the back of the barn and leave one on in the brain, boy.

If Hoy chooses GOTW, I'm going to have a nervous breakdown.
...not yet.

Went with the least controversial pick.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

It may be sacrilege as it was one of their biggest hits but Bankrobber is the weakest one left for me there.

It's good but feels like the verse is stuck on repeat for far too long.

Bankrobber is one of my favorite Clash songs, but most of the ones left are solid enough that I won’t complain when it goes down.

Bankrobber vs. Complete Control is a Sophie's choice for me.
