    Man depending on my mood when I vote a lot of these could be picked, aside from my top 2, in any order.

    Haha so true. Pendulum is a top 10 song for me. I voted for Inside Job every round for Avacado.

    hell no bud.  did a few hours worth of landscaping today around the pool.  sat my ass down with a nice ipa, looked at my phone and there was the perfect timing!
    I have no clue who is going for the win this round.  You can't go wrong with 1-5....hell I'd take any of those songs at every single show I go to.  when each of those songs are played live every single person in the place knows each and every syllable to that song.  Fuck we need some shows!!

    Nice showing by Inside Job to make it this far. Between that and Light Years for me...and Light Years lost. I wonder if that's because I've never heard LY live? Maybe.

    I made a post in the round one thread that I am very curious about which 1990's will go in round 3. I'm not at all surprised by the round 1 results, although I thought maybe Inside Job might go then. It's number is up this round as will be wither Light Year's or I Am Mine's. The one that makes it through this round will get hit VERY hard in round 3 but then what? I don't think I have it in me to vote against the other five.

    ...and yes, I'd love a few shows.

    Terrible song.  Definitely not the best from that album in my book.  But the masses voted inside job.  Food for thought, the masses voted for trump.

    Not a terrible song. A beautiful song and to be clear, masses voted for him, but the majority didn't so there is still hope for the US.

    noticed how I said masses and not majority.  ;)  within these ten songs, inside job is terrible.  like i said, songs 1-5 and 20,000 people are going crazy.  inside job is played and the vast minority are into it.

    I am actually a big fan of I Am Mine; not enough to wish it would win, but more so than I am of, say, Given To Fly. The message really resonates with me. I'm glad to see that it seems like it will hang in for another round.

    If I thought my vote meant anything at this point, I would run for my life.  :wink:  Release was just never my favorite on Ten.

    How the hell did inside job not get bounced last round. Now I have to waste my I am mine vote on it.

    Inside Job is getting bounced this round whether you voted for it or not. I Am Mine could have used your vote!

    I'm on your team here, B-Luxe.
    Great song, but last on the album aside from Garden for me.  Oceans isn't better, but I like it a little better, and it's the first PJ song I heard live.

    Release is great, but I wonder if PJ20 had never been made, would it have won the poll?

    I think MendozK should have spent hours upon hours of his free time creating a gigantic double elimination tournament bracket for all PJ songs so we could have done this properly.
