ROUND 12 - Earthquake Weather - SEMIFINAL
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Re: ROUND 12 - Earthquake Weather - SEMIFINAL
I've been trying to listen to EW a lot during this tourney - it's not even as good as I remember, maybe my old vinyl press has some life to it that the CD version lacks - but Sleepwalk just isn't up to snuff. That whole second side was really dire. This is a matchup that suffers from the quirk of the tournament formatting - there are at least 2-3 other songs on side one that clobber anything on side two. Anyways, I still think Island Hopping is an all-time Top 5 Joe solo song, so I have no qualms voting for Sleepwalk here.

I'm voting against Island Hopping because Marky's remix of Sleepwalk was so great. A new classic Joe song.

Absolutely. One of Joe's best lyrics.Flex wrote: ↑08 Jul 2019, 12:22pmI've been trying to listen to EW a lot during this tourney - it's not even as good as I remember, maybe my old vinyl press has some life to it that the CD version lacks - but Sleepwalk just isn't up to snuff.
