    Great.  Should we just declare Yellow Moon the champ for the next album?
    No lighting bolt!!
    unthought known for the win!
    Getaway is far and away the best song of that album.
    Does all of Canada get drunk this early in Sunday's?
    Yes we do - especially since it's a holiday weekend up here (Victoria Day).
    (And Getaway is indeed the best song off Lightning Bolt - although Pendulum is pretty cool.)
    Pendulum is definitely a great song but it got played waaaaaaay too much.
    I somewhat agree but couldn't you make the same argument for Sirens, LB, and MYM?
    Like just breathe it was Overplayed in the same exact spot. 
    I think it was a cool thing having it as THE opener for that tour. A change up, by having a fixed opener.

    I agree, saw 3 shows and wasn't disappointed with it.  I think it's the best opener they have, and it just moved the anticipation back one song.

    I agree completely. Pendulum is a great song and they could open with it from now on and I'd still love it.

    I've been done this twice. And on the final round when, as in Survivor, I got tricked into thinking I was voting for the ultimate winner.

    I've learned my lesson though.

    Shake my damn head at these two being in the finals. I will never understand the love for them. But that's alright because others like them.

    Not my favourites of the album either to be honest, but I don't mind them. We have to choose one though however!

    This is the first poll of these where my two favorites actually made it!  I could've voted either way on this final. Decided right at this time I've been preferring ATW.
