I'm not big Sirens fan, but how the fuck did Aye Davanita beat Sirens?
I think it's pretty clearly more about the negative/divisive reaction Sirens caused than anything intrinsically awesome about Aye Davanita. Aye Davanita would have lost to most other songs, even in a first-round match-up, and Sirens would have had a tough time getting past most others.

Probably true, but not in my case. I actually like Sirens. But, I voted for Aye Davanita. I've always adored that song. I'd pick it against a lot of PJ tunes, to be honest.

Yeah, I love it. It sort of fills the role of "interlude" without reducing itself to being just that (cough cough Wasted Reprise cough), and it has a great mood and groove to it. It's also emotionally expressive without being too melodramatic or directed, which allows for a lot more reexamination and questioning than a piece of that nature can usually be expected to provide.

I voted for Aye Davanita on the merits of Aye Davanita. It is a fantastic song.
