    It wasn't an easy vote but I thought Oceans was the one song that could of been left of the album with the least impact. Ask a non die hard fan what they think of Oceans and they would probably have no idea what song your talking about.

    And I get that Jeremy was the most played and commercialized song in their catalog but I don't get all the hate. Just my opinion.

    All of them. Not a fan of any of the studio versions of these songs. The songs are terrific live, but never liked this album one bit

    For what it's worth, I will be basing my decisions for these Ten polls on bootleg/live versions of the songs. I don't listen to the studio album anymore.

    Jeremy?

    C'mon man.

    (not that Deep was obvious by any means)
    It was a tough choice! I think the cheesy video had a part in my decision. Plus ed can't hit those vocals anymore.
    You're not the same person anymore since you changed your profile picture.
    lol....the same people!
    I know ya dork. I was just being a dickhead.
    Is that what happens when you hit 50? ;)
    lol

    I think for most. I started being a dickhead at a really early age. Maybe 30 or so!

    The way I see it, better to be a dickhead than be a complete dick.

    Why Go
    I can´t believe Deep & Garden have the most votes.
    And for all the hate Evenflow gets, it does not translate in this poll :confused:

    Deep
    There is some fact with this. For example, it is fact that Even Flow is not the weakest link. Anyone who voted for this song in the first round is wrong.

    I may prefer to listen to The Fixer over one of Jay Z's biggest hits, but that doesn't mean that the Fixer is a better song than the Jay Z tune.

    Yeah, I thought Even Flow would be getting hit pretty hard (maybe next round?)...And I thought Garden was a bigger deal!

    What do I know, I guess?

    I thought that reborn feeling you had was a result of passing wind?

    Why Go
    Friggin' Deep in the lead. WTF? Been one of my favorites for years with that killer guitar and dark lyrics. Also, anyone voting Jeremy or Evenflow isn't basing their pick on the weakest song, but the song they are sick of hearing. Neither should be eliminated this early.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I like Jeremy but it has always been the weakest song to me ever since Ten was released. You could really make an argument as to why none of these songs should be the first to go including the one you chose...

    Pearl Jam doesn't have many songs I'd consider a weak link on any album!!

    Hard to choose since I like all the songs on this album. There were a couple of other close ones but Deep gets my vote even though I live the song.
    It makes much more sense to live......in the present tense.

    Where do I vote? I know I've voted in polls before, but I'm not seeing what I remember seeing for voting...

    NM....I see the vote date and it registered as 2:00 pm, but now guessing it's closed at 2:00 am, and thus no voting option. I'll catch Rd 2.

    To each their own i guess. I love Oceans. Deep is fucking badass. Jeremy for me was not a great song to begin with and then was just ruined by MTV and radio. I could easily go with never hearing it again. (Although I do love the bass line in it).
