So are these non-poll votes counting or should we wait until it's up and running again?
Well, I would rather wait till the get them up and running again... but we can still present our choices and talk about em
Perfect. I can now debate with myself (and others, I suppose) if I should choose Oceans or Why Go. Just as tough as the first round.
There shouldn´t even be a debate, go with Why Go! For me, they´re a no match, I mean, both are great songs, but Oceans ... I still get chills every time I hear it.
The songs I listen to off Ten now are not the songs I used to listen to. Those songs have tired somewhat after hearing them 1000s of times. But I still acknowledge their significance. Even Flow would be my first choice to eliminate, but that just wouldn't be paying the song it's due respect... so I pick another.
When people ask me what the best bands of all time are, I always say Led Zeppelin even though I never listen to them anymore.
Jeremy gone first round is a stunner to me. Maybe I don't know what the hell im talking about, but that is a major song in the PJ catalogue that should, out of respect and at a minimum, lasted two rounds.
That being said... a fun exercise. When the hell is the poll feature going up? Why Go is gonna go.

Completely agree. Gotta give respect where it is due even if you don't listen to the song or band anymore (or even never at all).

And I think that's why Deep, Garden, and Oceans should have been the first three to go in round #1. Another way of looking at it is why did Jeremy get knocked out but not Even Flow?

Wait a minute... Are you telling me Deep and Garden have already been removed from contention because they beat out the rest? Those are the two songs that without a doubt are the weakest on the record. I have a very hard time believing that people think Black is a weaker song than those two... Either I don't understand this poll or you've all lost your minds.
Was going to vote Oceans but I think it deserves another week in the competition. There are enough fast songs like Porch, Why Go and Once that we can drop one of those.

You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

ISO 2016 Greenville shirt. Size medium. PM me if you have one for sale/trade.
It was so good that even the casual fans could dig it. Don't hold its popularity against it.
Oceans.
(I feel sick).

On a side note: I will be glad when they fix the polling.... wonder why its taking so long to find the fix.
I will extend voting for a couple days after they finally fix it.
