Four Sticks is the weakest song on an admittedly insane album. It should not have beaten its first two competitors and shouldn't win here.

I can't fathom how Four Sticks is still around. Insane.

The unabashed love for Four Sticks has got to be RM's best kept and darkest secret. I... I had no idea.

Yep. Mostly because Over the Hills is way overrated.

Neither of these are particularly good, though.

Both are a little above mid tier LZ for me.

Fair enough. I think I'd say below mid-tier, for me. But I really had no idea people loved Four Sticks this much. Over the Hills, has always been lauded in my circles, so that's less surprising to me, even if I think it's a meh tune.

I do like Over The Hills quite a bit.

But, those African rhythms Bonham is laying down on Four Sticks, coupled with JPJ's fantastic bassline, just hooks me in every time. Love it.

Four Sticks by a lot, but I know it doesn't stand a chance.

I mean, people here legitimately like songs from Pearl Jam's Backspacer album, so it's not that surprising.

Over the Hills really easy. Four Sticks is cool, but it's the worst song on LZIV.

Four Sticks, but I'm surprised both of these are still around when such great songs have been eliminated.

Over the Hills is dropped from top tier but I still love it. And it may still make my top 10.

Four Sticks is fun and way out of depth here.
