Moving on to Round 2
Big Wave, Wasted Reprise, and Parachutes eliminated in Round 1.

Again, you are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" from the remaining list after a couple days I remove another three (3) songs with the most votes.

We will then move on to Round 3.

The poll will close on Sunday (5/7) at 3:00pm cst.

    Life Wasted
    I really like or love all the songs left (and still just don't understand why everyone dislikes Parachutes) ... but I have to pick something. I dig Life Wasted. Oh well.

    Parachutes is a gem, a unique addition to the catalogue that rounds it out pretty well.  I understand it going out, but if Unemployable survives this round it will be a travesty!

    Unemployable is a good tune.

    I've come to understand that tastes are varied with people around here though- I just wanted to express the fact that I think it's a very solid track. I don't listen to it much anymore, but at one time... it was one of my faves off this album.

    I could be wrong but has any self titled song besides "life wasted" at the philly run in '09 ended a set?

    Every round going forward will be tough. Honestly don't know what I think should win. Just about anything could.

    And, yes, Parachutes and Unemployable are both solid tunes.

    Love this album.

    Never liked WWS. It seems repetitive to me. I doubt it will go out this round but for me it's one of the weaker links left.

    Parachutes is like drinking a coors cutter. It is a Pearl Jam song, but not really. It lacks a lot of things just like a coors cutter.

    For sure.

    Nothing but.

    Domestics have started to taste just slightly like horse piss might now that I've acquired the taste for IPA beer. Don't get me wrong... I still drink them, but only when I'm not left with an option.

    Here, here! IPA all the way. There are some awesome local breweries that make great IPAs. Pretty much all I drink.
