    Violent Femmes: "Blister in the Sun"
    VM is a jerk but I don't understand people hating Brown Eyed Girl. Overplayed sure but you didn't like it the first dozen times you heard it? Come on.

    I can't believe this song survived round 1.

    In this context, I'm slightly surprised as well.  But I think it's a terrific song!  It's easily the oldest song on the list.  I guess it's just too old for this crowd. 
    I’ve heard it a lot. Not sure how it ends though 
    The answer is: not quickly enough.  =)
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Sunday Morning is the oldest song in this poll.  It was recorded in the fall of 1966.  Brown Eyed Girl was recorded in March 1967.

    I was too lazy to look it up.
    Still a fan.  I have the 7" 45 RPM.

    Same.  Brown Eyed Girl isn’t my favorite Van Morrison song but it’s still really good.
    You see me empty, Sir, do not pause and inquire, simply assume and refill.
