After a hard fought 2nd round we move on to Round 3 to determine the GREATEST song on 'Blood On The Tracks' by Bob Dylan.
Eliminated Round 1 - Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts (7), You're A Big Girl Now (5) and Buckets of Rain (4)
Eliminated Round 2 - If You See Her, Say Hello (8), You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go (7), and Meet Me In The Morning (7)

For anyone new to the game:
You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 3 days I remove the two (2) songs with the most votes.
We will then move on to the Finals. - Remember you are voting to eliminate songs from contention.

Lets have fun with this. Remember debating and discussing why your right and others are wrong is always fun.

    Idiot wind makes it to round 3!  Excellent!

    Now I must torture myself for a while while trying to decide which of these four outstanding songs to eliminate!

    So I see from @brianlux, we’re allowed to ruminate publicly. First part is easy for me, it’s between Shelter From The Storm or Simple Twist Of Fate. Have to go for a few listens of both songs...

    I had to go with Simple Twist.  I think it may be about one ten-thousandth of a percent less appealing to me than the other three. 

    Next round, however, I may have to down hemlock, Socrates style.  Sayonara, baby!

    Both songs are so meaningful, both emotional for me, but it must be Simple Twist Of Fate. Stealing from @brianlux - “about one ten-thousandth of a percent” difference (not a matter of less appealing, it’s what my heart is telling me).

    I’m surprised that Shelter has had no votes. The deserving final 2 should be Tangled Up In Blue and Idiot Wind.

    I can be Louis, I suppose.
