    Sometimes should deservedly make it to round three. I love the restrained vocals. Like his voice is handcuffed.

    That's a great description!! Love sometimes too. This album is going to be tough

    Tough indeed. I think this album really separated the top 40 fans from the PJ fans. Like someone said earlier... we really committed ourselves with this album.

    Present tense for the win

    Tough to argue with this choice. Although Hail Hail and In My Tree are right along side it for me.
    Yep. If it comes down to present tense and In my tree i won't be able to vote

    Sometimes is a great song! First song played at my first show. Cant believe the votes for it.

    Now here we can agree.

    A good, solid tune.
    Yes. Great song. Better live than on the record (I think).

    It makes much more sense to live......in the present tense.

    And I think Sometimes is a fantastic EV solo song moreso than a PJ song.

    I listened to this album yesterday knowing that we would be voting on it. Honestly, Mankind is kind of catchy. I can appreciate it for what it is.

    I probably would have voted for I'm Open, except the line "trading magic for fact, no tradebacks" makes me laugh every time for some reason.

    This is probably an empty threat, but if Lukin goes out in round 1, I'm abstaining from the No Code poll. That's criminal!

    Absolutely. This, for me, is one song that presents itself live in a way that the studio version can't compete with. You can just feel it.

    That would be me and you're welcome. =)

    Anything you lose from being honest
    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.

    Definitely catchy. Not a huge fan of the lyrics, but I still like it.

    Can you say you do this for Lukin too? :smiley:
