    If Yellow Ledbetter were here it would have been a harder choice. Off He Goes advanced one round too far.

    Too many great songs voted off in the early rounds. Off He Goes is a good tune but no match for GTF. Honestly thought the final would be I Am Mine vs GTF.

    Seems a bit extreme but the stats seem to agree with your comment.

    Love RVM but gotta go with Alive. I'll always remember that 1992 SNL performance that hooked me. 

    (Of course, one might argue the 1994 RVM performance as a deal breaker).

    All four songs in my "top twelve" but I'd probably go:
    1. Alive
    2. RVM
    3a. Black
    3b. GTF

    For me it will be GTF for the win and three way tie for second.  All great songs, of course.

    Agreed, though sometimes it's a little too fast live, I like it when they hit that sweet spot between studio speed and MFC speed lol
