Thanks for pointing out Gandi.

Apologies all, mistake on my part - the first tie should have been Onemore’s CVB pick. Now corrected.

Gandi - can you re-vote on that first tie. Thanks

Original now edited.

Franz Nicolay 'Felix And Adelita' Ges 5-7 Dinosaur Jr 'Watch The Corners' Onemore


For what its worth, thought "Felix and Adelita", was one of the best tracks this round. Nothwithstanding Dinosaur Jr is a solid track in its own right too.

The cheek of it

[onemoreslogan]

I confess the results of the last round have soured me on this affair. I still haven't come to grips that Mesh Gear Fox could be eliminated. In the FIRST ROUND no less. A song which by any measure- objective, subjective, empirical, or anecdotal is the greatest rock and roll number ever recorded was unfeelingly cast aside by six Philistines who voted against it in favour of a glorified commercial jingle (Neighbourhood is cute and all, but it has no musical or lyrical ambition other than to amuse).

I can only conclude I overestimated the musical sophistication of the adjudicators presiding over this competition. Apparently half of you are the sort who miss work meetings because you prefer to remain in the elevator listening to the music.

Okay, now that that is off my chest, my votes:

Bob Dylan 'The Times They Are A Changin' Onemore 2-7

I see Long Plastic Hallway is going to fall to a song about making a fatal mistake. Seems appropriate.
