ROUND 14 - Wilderness Years Non-Album Tracks - SEMIFINAL

Post by Flex »

Proud of all you darlings for casting evil out of your lives.

This is it, the final vote before we have the our lineup for The Finals. Needless to say (but saying it nonetheless), VOTE FOR THE SONG YOU LIKE LEAST. NO DO-OVERS, NO MERCY.

I was positive that I was gonna ride It's a Rockin' World into the finals for this division, but now that I might have to actually vote against US North, I'm pausing. Going to have to think on this one a bit.

Meanwhile here I am voting for what is essentially a BAD song in the Strummer poll to keep my vendetta alive. (That and US North is just better)

I think if there was a radio edit of it or something, I'd be unequivocal in supporting it (which also makes it much like any given BAD song). If I cheat and count Heston's edit of it, that may win.

Rockin' World is still so great tho.

Right, I've been voting US North for a few rounds now not because it's bad but because it's BAD.

I'll see myself out...

Its fine. Fine I guess.

And yeah, like everything BAD adjacent, radio edits increase my enjoyment.

Stickin' with "Rockin'," but they're both really good choices.

I’m Rockin, nothing against US North but is and sounds like a BAD track.

This is where I'm landing. I'm voting for a Joe song, not a trojan horse BAD song.
